must I actually go outside today? The furthest I ventured yesterday was our stairwell, a necessary route to the laundry room. And because of our awesome washer and dryer, I got to take that trip 5 times:first to put in the washer, the next 3 to put it in the dryer/add more time on the dryer, and the 5th to bring it back upstairs. That's why it's actually less effort to bring my entire laundry basket full of clothes to one of my relatives' house to do.
It's only -25°C out right now, so I guess I should consider myself lucky.
Time to bundle up and buck up.

lost souls stay lost...for good
Hellloooo.
I've had a rather weird day. I'm getting a cold, or so I think. I'm feeling not too bad right now, but that could change in a heartbeat. So, because I wasn't feeling so hot this morning, I was going to stay home from school. Of the 4 days I am at school, I can really only stay home on monday and wednesday, as I always have a homework assignment due in managerial accounting on the other days. However, I figured that I would have to catch up on notes, causing me extra work, and that my mom wouldn't appreciate me staying home all day and then getting my hair cut at hla's house.
So my prof wasn't there for my first class today--he had some student assistant come to tell us what we were to do. Basically, we're doing another group project which involves making a poster, coming up with a group name, and summarizing various chapters from our textbook, eventually playing a game of jeopardy with said chapters. I ask you know, what year of university am I in? 2nd.
I should be in my second class today but 15 minutes into the class, my prof wasn't there, so I left.
And now I'm off to go downtown and work on my managerial accounting homework--I have plenty-o-time until hla is coming to pick me up, maybe I'll finish tomorrow and thursday's work!
Reviews and pictures of last week's concerts to come soon. Sorry.

update, update.
So my recovery from surgery went well, but I managed to get the common cold, which for me, adds incredible body achiness for a week, sneezing, coughing, and me being a complete suck.
Thankfully, that is over with. I really want to get the flu shot this year, since I seem to get colds so easily.
Danko Jones rocked. Except for me getting groped by some chick behind me. *sigh*. And no guy I was with would switch me spots...come on, it was like a free lap dance except from behind! Oh well... pics! dankojones.net, go check them out.
The next night was the Who and I cannot stop saying good things about them.
(review, taken off of what I posted on the Winnipeg Message Board and the Jet Set Satellite Message board):
The Who
Ahh! I had an AMAZING TIME! I was wary about paying TOO much for tickets, so I went with the $79 which came to just under $100/ticket. I was going into the concert with the "maybe I should've splurged a bit more to get better seats" because even we got 300-section. Well, we got a bit of surprise...they closed our section - I guess it didn't sell that well, and we were relocated to 106, 2nd row...freaking awesome!
I was wary about Inward Eye, as the last time I saw them at the WECC, I was unimpressed...I used to LOVE these guys, one time I rocked out so hard that I couldn't get out of bed the next day...this was without any liquor, too, guys. However, it looks like they've been touching up their stage show more, and they're back to their crazy selves!
Townshend rocked his guitar--it was unfortunate that he kept on having trouble with his amp, though.
Daltry strugged on some lines, but for others, had me going "YEAH!!!". The scream at the end of "Won't Get Fooled Again' had EVERYONE cheering, it was rather unexpected.
I don't have the setlist, but according to the Sun:
Can't Explain
The Seeker
Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere
Fragments
Who Are You
Behind Blue Eyes
Real Good Looking Boy
Wire & Glass medley (6 songs from their mini-opera)
Baba O'Reily
Eminence Front
You Better You Bet
Won't Get Fooled Again
My Generation
Encore: (Just guessing the order)
Pinball Wizard
See Me, Feel Me (is this the song name?)
Joni Mitchell cover
...others
As well, they had an amazing stage setup, the screens behind them had graphics specific to each song, really well done.
I think the only people in the entire arena who were sitting down (besides the people who are physically not able to stand up) were the people sitting behind us. And they felt the need to tap me on my shoulder and tell me to sit down. Screw them.
So yeah...fab-u-lous!
I babysat a kitty this weekend and it was so sweet. The cutest little kitten there was (besides the legendary Pinkerton). The only bad part: getting my nose scratched today...that mutha kills!
I think I'm going to grow out my bangs, get a trim, and continue to grow out the rest of my hair.
And my slurpee has just begun to hit me like ecstacy hits a raver...except that I needs to get to bed soon...school tomorrow.
and, my heart is crying out to play guitar. I just need to find some time.
