a rumor of bauhaus bleeding the sky

Yeehaa! Havent blogged in two days or so, I’m not dead, really! Wednesday I went out with Sara down the Boulevard, up Niagara Falls way, stopped off at the Salvation Army (it was actually open! Its always closed when I go by!) Sara found a Hedwig shirt, so she was all ecstatic (much more so about the new guy at work, but I digress…) So we continued on to the Factory Outlet Mall (goodwill was closed by this time), and as per usual, had to hit the music store in there (Music 4 Less? Hardly!) They had a clearance table out front, and actually had some rather current CD’s that had the wrapping taken off, but most had the top sticker still on them. So I picked up Reveille’s Bleed The Sky for $2!!! (boy am I glad I didnt spend $8 at Frizb’s like I was going to!) It doesn’t have the Inside Out remix with Scooter on it, but for $2, I think I can live without it. After that we went to Target to kill time till Danielle called, which she did, and we headed over there, to finally reformat her parents computer. They are now happily up and running again, with ALL NEW AOL 7.0!!!! (hahahaha). Figures, the only problems I had with the whole thing? Yep, AOL. It wanted to pick a fight with the modem. Eventually we got them talking and they’re back online.
Thursday was a hectic day at work, in the morning I set up a replacement machine for the Peace Bridge bus terminal, so they can handle the influx of people that are gonna be coming back from the Pope’s visit in Toronto. Glad I’m not an inspector this weekend! My afternoon was spent showing new laptop users how to dial into the building and get their mail, etc. I’m getting quite good at configuring these things.
Anyway, I went food shopping with the parents after dinner, thats always a good time 🙂 After we got back, Amanda just got home from work, and she was going out with her friends to Rumors for 80’s night. So guess who else went… hehe! I dragged Sara and Danielle, and then did what I thought I was gonna do saturday, sat and watched hehe. Sara doesnt dance either, so we just surveyed the dance floor. I did answer a trivia question though! They showed a Peter Murphy video (they got a nice video screen at this place, with a BARCO!!), and the question was, what 80s band was he the lead singer of? Well, I remember reading that the guy from cool for august was a big fan of this guy (and sounds exactly like him), and all that, so I knew this dude was the lead singer of Bauhaus (FYI, Wayne Static wears a Bahaus shirt in the X-Ecutioners video!). Like 5 people went up to the DJ and didn’t know! I had it right away, but didnt go up, and sara’s like, dude go! Ok fine, so I finally went, no one else knew it, and I got beads for the girls (they were doing this Mardi Gras thing) and a CD (not an 80’s cd though! It was Vanessa Carlton, that “Im playing my piano driving down the street video chick” hehe!). So other than that, I occupied a stool for the entire night… We left at 1, Amanda and Co, prolly closed the place down. (And oh yeah, there were no bikers to be seen on Clifton Hill anywhere, they were all at the Canadian Ballet!)
Looks like its gonna be a slow one here at work today… nice and relaxing, no stress
Current mood: just coasting
song: Reveille – Unborn
