Baby being polite never got me nowhere.

I can't believe Halloween was only on Monday. It seems like a lifetime ago. It's been a long week. Hence lack of posting.

Anyway, I'm heading off soon to see Mathew Good at the same place I saw Dan Mangan last week. It's funny that I'm seeing two Vancouver musicians at the same place exactly one week apart, but the concerts will be very different. Matt Good tickets cost a lot more, and there is actual assigned seating as opposed to general admission tickets that allow the opportunity to sneak side seats not too far from the stage.

Matt Good's dark music suits my mood more this week. I think I'm going to wear my Dan Mangan shirt to the show because it makes me happy.

I think it's funny how I started this blog in 2005 (lifetime ago) because I was a fan of Matt Good's blog. I don't even know if he's still really blogging. I sometimes want to stop liking Matt Good's music because he seems a little curmudgeonly on Twitter, but then he puts out a new album and I can't help myself but love it. Falling out of love isn't something that I'm good at.

I'm happy there's an extra hour to this weekend. Apart from this concert, this weekend is for catching up on sleep, housework, exercise, and marking. I plan to go for long runs both days of this weekend. I hope the sleeping and running will give me the fortitude to deal with the other stuff.

Happy fall back!

Yes, happy fall back! I love the time change too. I usually don't change my clocks until Sunday morning because then you REALLY feel like you get an extra hour but I have to go to Vancouver this weekend so I won't have that luxury this year.
Man, i haven't listened to Matt Good in about ten years. I don't even know what his music sounds like anymore!! I hope the show is good!

Well, I just got done catching up on my sleep. I hope it was as good for you as it was for me.
