Diamond

Good morning everyone. I am currently seeing double when looking at the monitor this morning. Or maybe there is two of everything and I hadn't realized it all this time. Hopefully I will figure it out by breakfast time so as I don't make things really complicated with the multiple bowls and multiple holes. You get my drift. I was talking to Anthony Trapini quite a bit the past few weeks. He kept fucking up the order for my shirt I had ordered quite a while ago from them. So he personally got in contact with me. We straightened it out and he is sending me their album Cryptic Implosion for free. Oh I didn't specify. Anthony is the vocalist of Odious Mortem. I was trying to get him to commit to some Toronto dates this year or at least try to get on the Summer Slaughter Tour line up. They are only from California. So they have no real excuse to not come to Canada. There would be a warm reception for them as well if they came here by the metal community. If they came, Kris and I would be there in a heart beat I know.

I am actually getting more and more excited for seeing The Faceless lately since it isn't too far away. Plus I have had an amazing time everytime I go to a show with Kris. I mean a metal show. I have been to tons of shitty little local shows with him in the Owen Sound and surrounding area. I use the term "shitty" loosely. I had many amazing times at those shows. I just saw a video of this guy playing a huge "Flying V" guitar. I mean huge. He rested the tips on the ground and played it. There is no way that guy was supporting it's weight while playing. It was funny. But it sounded like shit. He as playing Stairway to Heaven (shitty fucking song) and not even right! I don't know if it was because he was a bad player or because the neck of the guitar was soooo wide that he just couldn't reach the notes properly and cleanly. Or maybe a healthy mix of both. It is a nice fall day today. Not raining. A bit of sun and not too windy or cold. Which is good. I have to go catch a bus soon.

I enjoy walking and catching a bus. Gives me time to walk and listen to tunes. To things I love to do as long as I am not freezing my balls off. Anyways I will talk to you all at a later date. Most likely tomorrow. I have a staff meeting early in the morning tomorrow. I got into a little tiff with my boss yesterday. She informed us all that we HAVE to wear poppies tomorrow. I told her I never do wear them. I don't believe that displaying little symbols actually really means anything and don't subscribe to it. I didn't even wear crosses when I called myself a Christian. We all display symbols in some way I know. But I don't feel the need too and I don't think it has anything to do with my respect or lack of respect for anything. Wearing a poppy doesn't for me represent respect for what our veterans did. It may for them. If that is the case, there are millions of people making them happy by decorating their lapels. Anyways she gave up on me. Realized you can't really make someone wear something.

It isn't like I signed a document attached to our dress code agreement telling me what I have to wear on November 11th. My boss called my a shit disturber which made me laugh. It would have never even been brought up if she hadn't decided to try and make me do something. Haha. It was an amusing little conversation at the least. Anyways, I was going to go a bit ago. So I hope to see you all soon. Have a lovely day. Cheers!
