What's next? I'll tell you what's next, every other day. That's what's next.
It's been almost a month since I last updated this page and I couldn't tell you what happened to that month. Months used to seem like years now they seem like days. Remember how long it used to take for Christmas when you were a kid? Those flaps on the advent calendar couldn't be opened fast enough. Sure you may have cheated and opened a few early, just for the chocolate, but still that month of December might as well have been an eon. Speaking of which, remember that bird Eon in the Rudolph Christmas movie? Where Rudolph went to the Island of Forgotten toys and Father Time was there and The Baby New Year? Maybe I don't remember that, maybe I'm making it up, maybe my hungover mind is running on the fumes of last nights drinking binge and has gone off on some crazy tangent that I can't now get a hold of....stop.
Anyhoo, time is moving faster now. I'm older and my grip is slipping. Life is great and I get to do a lot of great things in it, but it all goes by so fast it's hard to slow down and realize just how good it is. Baby New Year just get's old so goddamn fast.
In the last month I've done a lot of working, made a lot of beer, had my first patio day of the year, travelled to Niagra Falls and played in a hockey tournament, played this years first round of golf....I've done a lot of shit, but not until this very moment have I stopped, breathed and taken it all in. It's already May for crying out loud. It was Cinco de Mayo yesterday. We celebrated but not too much cause we aren't Mexican. But I'm sure Mexican's celebrate Canada Day so it's okay. But seriously, check this out. We went to the Mill Street Brew Pub for some patio, some beers and some food. We ordered the beer and then realized, from the Mexican decal and food offerings on the menu, that it was Cinco De Mayo. Great. Awesome. I love Mexican food and reasons to celebrate. So I ordered one of the Mexican dishes. The waitress politely told me that they were out of that particular item. So I ordered another one of the five Mexican dishes that they were offering. She takes my order and then five minutes later comes back and says that they are out of that too. WTF? Seriously, Cinco De Mayo is one day. And it's 3 in the afternoon. How could they possibly be out of two of the five special Cinco De Mayo offering before dinner! What a joke. I should have gotten up and left right there, but I didn't. I stayed for two more hours and drank on the patio. But I didn't like it dammit!
Speaking of time moving fast. Last year on Cinco De Mayo I was with my cousin in Berlin stumbling around the streets looking for a Mexican Bar to celebrate at, when we ran in to this guy who offered us to go on a bar crawl for 10 Euro. We did and it was fun. That was a year ago. A year dammit. So much has happened in the year since that if I tried to think about it all at once my head would explode and then I'd get blood and brain goo all over the computer so I won't do that.
What's next?
