A warning in advance, do not eat Laurie's cookies without adult supervision! Oh, and might give you a lazy eye...

Timmy, you are clearly a man on a mission... just you make sure that you get your ass back here in time for our wedding eh? (Which hopefully should still give you plenty of time to gallavant around the kingdom of unity)

Sorry to hear that you were disrespected Margaret. That's definitely a real cold way to let someone go. Which only confirms my suspicions that you would be better off somewhere else. I mean really, who needs that sort of energy in their lives? I have full faith in your ability to carve out another cool, and meaningful niche. Happy hunting! It's definitely a little exciting (albeit a little scary) don't ya think?

I generally seek understanding, as to why someone may have behaved a certain way, or decided to disregard my feelings. Or why they are perhaps so wrapped up in the process of seeking self-affirmation, and reinforcement/affirmation from those around them, that they lose sight of how they actually interact with the rest of the world (losing sight of the importance of responsibility, accountability, etc). If I can understand why someone may have acted in a certain way, than I can atleast possibly begin to put myself in their shoes, and then decide whether I could have ever followed along the same wayward path (regardless of whether their path is leading them astray), if I had been granted different life circumstances. I'm not sure if this is the same as forgiveness. Yet if I can understand someone's motivations, or environmental influences, then I seem to feel better about things. It helps me to take things less personally.

[quote=livingstoned ps. when are you coming back?? THat's a good question. I'll have to make a holiday run or something for sure. Enjoy the taco party!! Wish I was going to be there for that one!

Happy birthday Eric. Hope you track down some good times!

Yeesh, did thing sget a little out of hand over there one night or what? Gives a whole new meaning to "raising the roof" Settle down over there Cully!

I like dogs and chicken. Sounds like a lovely evening. I'm sure the owners were happy to get their old friend back.

Congrats! That's a pretty cool gig for sure!

Hmmm... if the Beggar's Banquet at the Corktown is the band that I think it is, than they're a tonne of fun. Obviously mostly Stones covers, but they do them well. Mind you I haven't seen them play for years, and don't even know if it's the same guys doing it. Last I knew it was Steve Strongman, maybe Jesse O'Brien, and Wheels. I'll be lying low Friday as I fly out on Saturday, otherwise I'd check these guys out...

Always appreciating the kind vibes... they don't go unnoticed! Spread em high and wide!
