Birthday week is finally here!

If you know me, then you also know that my birthday is right around the corner.

So I mark today as the official start of birthday week. May 1 was the official start of birthday month. People often ask why I remind my friends so much that my birthday is approaching. I tell them that I do it for them. It's a completely selfless act. If they forgot I'd be mad at them and they would not get the benefit of my wit and humour, so by reminding them, they don't forget and I don't get mad or disappointed. So it's a win for them really. Simple.

In other news. I now have a ticket for the Oasis show at GM Place in late August. We also have a baby due in very early September. So I hope that the two don't conflict, because you just know which event I'll be at, right?

More news, I'm going to Pemberton Festival in late July. It's a three day outdoor festival in, you guessed it, Pemberton British Columbia. Which is just a bit north of Whistler. Check out the site for all the details but three days, dozens of bands including The Tragically Hip, Nine Inch Nails, Coldplay and lots more. We'll be camping for the whole thing and it should be a riot. Jay Z is headlining too, and apparently he puts on a really good show, so although I'm not a fan at all, I'm looking forward to seeing him/them, whatever.

With the layoffs at work, particularly on the floor I'm on, it's like a ghost town. Someone said that on the east side of the floor they saw a tumbleweed! While I can't confirm or deny that sighting, I wouldn't be surprised. No idea what, if anything is happening with the team that I'm on, but time will tell I supposed.

More later.
