Alan--Since the air is full of volcanic ash, may be a good day to wear a breathing mask or stay indoors.....

What ya said about "sweet cans"...I guess bras are can hammocks?? I guess some guys have banana hammocks.....wouldn't mind resting next to a banana hammock or in one. LMAO!

:-/ I'm in a goofy mood today......Must be all the earthquakes and volcanic eruptions around the world! And in my head...

Peace Lily - those dogs are awesome. I'm adopting them and entering them in the winter olympics : )

Cheese - the Chicky foot webcast back in.... er... was it December?

So it turns out I have an extra ticket to Saturday's Transatlantic show in Downey. Transatlantic is a proggy Mike Portnoy project with Neal Morse, Roine Stolt, and Pete Trewavas.

The ticket is third row center and I paid $73.75...anyone interested?

Sure, I am! Pick me up on the way ;-)

Ha! Al says something similar every time I post something about a show on Facebook.

I doubt (m)any of my friends know he's in Ireland, so they probably think we go to concerts together all the time...

Well, you would if you would just pick him up on the way :-)

Hi Rick Distorted Soul, Totally agreed..PSATMOR is a gem that really stands out..and Live in Paris is a treat...especially Ghosts!

Thanks Peace Lilly...both my parents have it so i was kinda expecting it...but much later in life...its a warning to eat healthier, exercise and lose some weight...for some reason i keep thinking about cheescake...cause i dont think ill ever eat any again..;(

Ashcloud. No air trafiic in NL for two days. Queen and crown prince going to her Denmark date by TRAIN :-)

Still waiting impatiently for Joe's demos of the new Ice9 pedal Vox promised on their Utube chanl.

Hey Everyone:

Hope you all are doing well.

I've been busy every single day now with work and running. Plus, I'm also helping out a 6th grader with his running, so I'm sort of playing the role as a mentor/trainer for him.

I FINALLY got to see the vids and pics from Sweetwater.

Mystcal Robot: Chip, thanks for posting the vids. I enjoyed every single one.

Distorted Soul: Rick, yes and thanks for pointing that out. Hope you're doing well.

Axeshredder: Diabetes, whoa! Hope everything will turn out well for you.

Busy weekend for me:

Friday, I'm working at the guitar store during the day and then I have to work later in the evening at the restaurant.

Saturday, I have a race that I'm running in and it's a 7.5 Mile Run in mud and trails. Wish me luck everyone. Hope I don't break a leg or my ankle.

OOOOOWEEEEEOOOOOWEEEEEOOOOOOOOO!!!

I'm getting so excited for this Godsmack release. Any UFC fans? Check out the vid for CRYIN' LIKE A BITCH!

So we stopped at a Guitar Center in Medford after I picked Chris up for the weekend this afternoon....he was looking at some piece of rack-mounted processor/fx thingie...Behringer somethingorother...so I was scanning the tab books, he joined me and guess what he spotted....

A CHICKENFOOT tab book!! Chris is excited cuz now he can finish figuring out a coupla tricky spots and how to play them, and I'M happy cuz I can read all the words and finally know what Sammy is singing in those "mystery" parts. LOL!!

So yeah...it's a Hal Leonard book, in case anyone is interested :)

pip - awww soz to hear your plans got ruined from your little accident....great clips...

Glitz - Man...do you ever stop? the saying goes work, rest and play....not work run and work! LOL

Do the Stu - Glad to hear you enjoyed them Crooked Vultures....why on earth did they call themselves that?? got the album myself...must play it again sam....er stu!

Things not going so well here...boyfriend was very stressed working for KFC as only had a few hours (not enough to pay the bills) so he took a temporary full time job...which turned out to be not full time and has only lasted a month...so got nothing now...sigh!

Hope everyone is well.

Hugs Satriella xx

Satriella: LOL, I understand what you're saying. Maybe I should put "rest" in my posts. LOL. I hardly had any time for myself the past week because of, well you know. I did pick up a few more job applications; one for a pizza place, one at a bank, and one at a music/record store. The restaurant/hotel I'm at is getting a little stressful for me, and I thought of changing departments there by doing banquets. It might be a risk (fewer hours), but at least I could get some R&R in between and focus more on my running and being with family, and maybe watch the Chickenfoot podcasts in Cabo.

Off to work at the guitar store and then it's work at the restaurant in the evening.

Saturday is the run/race. Wish me luck!
