Cities and Years

*Vroom, screech* Hey, get in. *clunk*

So, it's been feast or famine on the work front... Last week I worked almost 60 hours, but this week because of the rain nobody's laying sod apparently, and I've only clocked about 16 hours in 4 days, including having yesterday off altogether. Next week is likely to be insane as everyone tries to catch up. That's just how it goes, so I'm told.

Due to the downtime, I've had a fair bit of extra time sitting around at home this week but thanks to my surrogate mother kicking my ass to be productive, I've done a bunch of apartment hunting and found 4 places to go take tours of, 3 of which are today and all of which are within walking distance of the Kingdoms jam hall. That's right, I'm moving to Kitchener in September. There's a number of reasons... Partially it will allow for better job opportunities, as KW is just way bigger than Guelph and should have more driving jobs available. Partially I'm moving close to the jam hall so I can just jaunt over there for more personal practice time, which I haven't had much of for years, and it's about time I got back into that. Having a relatively regular work schedule and the ability to practice regularly means I can finally make some headway on working toward my eventual career goals. There's also a gym just around the corner I'll be signing up for... and as an added bonus I'll be closer to some friends I've never been able to see often enough in the last couple years.

The only other news of late to mention is I wrecked my thumb somewhat at work on Tuesday, by getting it caught between the truck and the tarp-lifting boom(#12) on the back. It's bruised and swollen and I can barely move it, so I've had to take a day or two off from the gym, but its fortunately not broken, so everything should be back to normal in a week or so, or at least it better be.

Ok, you'll have to hop out here. I'm off to work out the specifics of a 40/30/30 split meal plan at 3000 calories and you definitely don't want to be around for that.
