Fitting line because a.) I'm seeing Pearl Jam tonight, and b.) 'cause of my financial situation. -.-; But anyway, thanks to several people (you know who you are! ♥), a round of golf and the good possibility of selling off my extra ticket, tihngs are looking up. Yay!

Today's round of golf was actually worse than my first, overall, but I had more nice shots, if that makes sense. On the last hole I had my best drive ever, which was awesome. As long as you hit at least one nice shot, it's enough to bring you back for more, or so they say.

Anyway, off to the city for now. Here's hoping the rest of the day goes well, and likewise for all of you. :)

Made yet another icon. Yay for The Office! Other than that, nothing new today. Work was alright, court went well thankfully. The only news of the day was my friend, who I bought a Pearl Jam ticket for, has to work now and I only found out today. So... does anyone want to buy a ticket? XD I asked a bunch of people to check around for me and made a post in newfoundland, so here's hoping I can do something with it. Bah.

Anyway, on that happy note, off to bed for me.

So, I watched The Wall, the movie, today. Kinda messed up. I like listening to the album itself more though. Such an awesome album. I also watched Coffee & Cigarettes tonight, which I bought for cheap weeks and weeks ago. Eh, it was ok. Only paid like $10 for it, so I can live with that.

Went back and memoried a bunch of stuff too, which was awesome. Now everything I wanted to go back and record is done, yay! Took me long enough, but I think it's worth it. I'll have to remember to keep doing it in the future.

I think it's kinda sad that I have last Saturday's paper here and I still haven't read it. It's only once in a blue moon that I get one, and now I know why. Oh well, the crossword, wordfind etc. will still be do-able no matter how long I take to get through it, heh. And the comics! I must read those sometime too.

It was a good weekend, nice and lazy. Next weekend is Pearl Jam, and I know that'll be a lot more hectic. So it was nice to relax for this one, 'cause there'll be lots of driving and concert-going next weekend. I still haven't decided if I'll go into the city on Friday after work or on Saturday. It gets dark so early now that even if I left at 5, right after work, I'd be driving in the dark for the last part. I might be better off going in Saturday afternoon, that also removes the temptation of blowing mucho deniro in town on Friday night and Saturday afternoon. Perhaps that's what I'll do. Only thing is that means a lot of driving in a shorter time span, Saturday afternoon and Sunday afternoon, instead of Friday night and Sunday afternoon. I've got all week to see anyway, so no worries.

Annnnnnnnnnd to close out the night, a few memes.

Well, the weekend went well. Got to my friend's place on Friday after 3.5 hours of driving and we hung out, then Saturday we went to the local driving range there and I got my first golfing experience. It's very fun, and today before I left we went out again. I'm going to try to get a loan of some clubs from the boss, or maybe see if he's looking to sell any of his old sets, try to get into it more. It's very fun, and I'm inclined to try the driving range out this way now too.

After all that, we headed to the concert yesterday afternoon around suppertime. It was raining sporadically so we stopped to buy a raincoat for my friend, who didn't bring one. There I saw the new PSPs, and I'd been thinking about getting one for awhile now, so I did. Even though I totally can't afford it or anything, I bought it and put it in the car before we went to the concert.

The concert was great too, we really only saw the last band, which was the only good one there. The only other band whose set we mostly saw was Finger Eleven, and they were ok but, well, eh. The Hip were good though, but they didn't play much old stuff at all. Up to the 2nd encore (yes, there were two), they're only played a grand total of one song from their first two LPs. One. I wasn't too impressed, since those are perhaps my two favourite albums by them. But in the second encore of just 3 songs, 2 of them were from their first full length album, and I was happy.

I played with the PSP a bit today, but on the drive back my senses finally kicked in and I brought it back to another Wal-Mart on the way back. It's a neat device but I just got back from spending a lot of money on my vacation, and recently got my iPod, so it'd be total overkill to get something I don't even need. Maybe someday later when they go down in price / I have more money. My friends totally tried to talk me out of it, but that only made me want it more. Stupid reverse psychology.

Anyway, it was a good weekend. This week should be ok too, with work looking alright (though who knows what awaits me in the office tomorrow morning -.-;) and the new Harry Potter book arriving in the mail soon. Next time I won't preorder it, I have no idea why I keep doing that when the stores around me constantly surprise me by having it in stock. Oh well, no big hurry to read it, 'cause it'll be another few years before the next one I imagine.

So, today was pretty good. I ended up getting my first hug from the parent of a client, as I successfully argued someone's case in court. The guy was already serving a sentence arising from a breach of probation, and he might've been in jail until his trial on this other matter in frickin' December. He didn't deserve any time at all for the original charge, so we dealt with that and now once he's finished this short sentence, he's out for good. All hands were very grateful, it's nice to be able to help people when they need it. ^_^

Tomorrow should be good, I was working late last night for today's court appearance so I'm leaving after lunch. I'll be heading for Gander, staying with a friend there tomorrow night and then attending the Salmon Festival. It should be fun, though the only band I really wanna see is The Tragically Hip. I'm sure the other bands will be ok too, and we're not going 'til later on anyway. Good times!

So I'll be back on Sunday I think, not sure if I'll be online at all from now 'til then, but I'm sure you'll all be fine without me. :)

Oh! I also recently submitted some Firefly icons (of Kaylee, specifically) to this community, abc_icons, in this post here. They're not that good, but a few came out ok. It was my first stab at doing a theme, and hopefully I'll get better at it, but check them out if you'd like. :D

After trying since they went on sale at 10am, I finally got a ticket to see Pearl Jam. The only problem was I was supposed to get 4. >.>; The good news, kinda, is one of those 4 was for a friend of a friend, and if he doesn't get to go with us, well, I don't really care. ^^;; But my other friend got 2 next to each other, so I might go with him, and I snagged one single close by to those seats for another friend. The other person I was going to get a ticket for told me not to get one after. The reason being that,a fter trying allllll morning, I couldn't get even 2 seats together. admission.com sucks ass. >:o So I got just the one single, and if my friend doesn't want that, I can sell it to someone else I guess. The concert's not until September anyway.

So tired, I went to bed around 5 and got up just before 10, with the intent of hopping online, quickly getting tickets, then going back to my warm, comfy bed. Hah. Serves me right for being that naive, I suppose. Anyway, I have a ticket, so it's all good. Stupid online service though, it's really terrible. But on the bright side, I've never been up this early on a Saturday for a long, long time. Yay for having the rest of the day to do stuff! ^_^
