Went to the concert, met some guys, missed the party bus back and ended up with these guys at a party in Toronto. Was there for 2 days before I was so burned out I needed to come home. This was in the days before cell phones (yes a loong time ago) and my friends who got back on the party bus had no idea where I got to. Thank god they didn't report me missing! Your kids PMed!!! What about the time you were smoking weed at that concert and Bruce got mad at you? haha, do tell. This already sounds like a winner  Not much to tell. Bruce is the hubby who doesn't agree with the way I used to live my life lol He saved me from self destruction (huge exhageration but you get the idea) So when I slipped back to the dark side at a concert he was none too happy. But he got over it. Cuz he wuvs me  It really isn't as bad as it sounds lol
LAME!

To be fair, they are directly east of you though. http://maps.google.com/
So is Europe, Asia, and more importantly...
Japan. When anyone talks about teh East, my mind goes straight to Asia.

You guys should have ice soon, methinks. I'm afraid I know all to well.  On top of a British flag its Queen this and Queen that. Someday, hopefully they change it by then, I'll have to swear allegiance to the Queen when I become a Canadian Citizen.
Right now my world is denoted by this flag.... It's great to have given the Queen the flick.... but now I have to swear allegence to the chicken-fried steak and carry a rifle.... but I can still say "G'day Mate", when ever I want!

Trying to change my diet. had a protien shake for breakfast today. yogurt, frozen blueberries, milk and protien powder. Was pretty tastey and surprisingly filling. I bet Bruce enjoyed the protein shake too. It is a great way to wake up in the morning. Sounds like a nice breakfast afterwards.
I was gonna say it, but decided against it. Way to go MB!!!
