sunday bloody sunday. But a great kind of "bloody". "Unreal" kind of bloody. Baaasically, we're talking one of the greatest sundays.
Sunday being yesterday. The thing is, I could go into all sorts of detail about the service at St. Margarets, lunch and a drive back to winkler with good friends buuuut I'd really hope for any such details to actually be something near entertaining and i'm just not feeling it tonight. Not exactly "in the groove" one might say. Small shout out to all the CP's: i just had an intense craving for our good friend the Almond (freaking) Macaroon...mmmmboy.
Anyhow. After the luscious ride home with my good friend Jules, who just holds the record for some of the greatest chats of my life, I arrived at the Back Forty Folk Festival in Morden. Pretty much the greatest event in southern manitoba. Basically, you sit in the bowl of the park in morden, bake yourself in the incendiary (it's my new goal to use this word at least once on every post on Good Rocky...) manitoba sun, and listen to some phenomenal music. This year felt alot more like a blues fest than a folk fest but that suits me just fine. Heath had to head home shortly after I arrived seeing as how her sunburn was turning a pretty solid purple...classic...so it was just me and bill. FAN-tastic. (not that heath had to head home, not at all, she's a freaking hoot when she's not wasted on sunlight). Fantastic because we ended up just sitting on the tarp, drinking coffee, and bumping into the greatest people you could ever bump into.
Here's the thing about this day, I realized later on, much later on, near to when I was heading to bed, that a year ago yesterday, I was having a much different night. A pretty regretfull night, which already makes it kind of strange to realize it's anniversary. It just kind of seemed like the day redeemed itself, and I didn't really see it coming.
Who's kidding who, there's likely more to this story, and it could likely be a little more entertaining...something about Good Rocky though...just begs a cop-out. classic.
New Goal in Life: See U2 live.
(a pretty serious, pretty monumental goal. and the best part? Fully recognizeable)

boo-urns U2
i am going to have to agree with meadstars. i do not care what anyone says, the U2 show last summer was one of the best expierences of my life. these men are not mortal, they are gods. just kidding, but do you ever feel like that when you hear them live. and if thats hype - so be it. maybe sometimes we need a little hype. i am going to put the whole thing on the top ten greatest times of my life, and I have been to Europe. Enough said.
