Musings

Major burnout and compounding frustration.

Days long gone

After the Arcade Fire concert at the PNE forum of October 2005, I noticed a table selling concert shirts for a mere $20. For whatever reason that I had no cash, so I desperately ran to the ATM at nearest gas station on Hastings and Renfrew. However, by the time I made it back to the PNE forum, the shirts were completely sold out.

Why this continues to bother is probably an example of my ongoing and systemic problems.

Musings

- I can see why personal blogging is made redundant by facebook and twitter. However, I don't feel comfortable sharing at this point.

- I've liberalized my facebook account. Things are about the same relationship wise, yet my news feed is now polluted by inanity.

- American gun owners cannot be reasoned with.
