JULIO, DONDE ESTA MI DEB IDA!

22 DAYS UNTIL MEXICO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hopefully my toe will heal by then.

i was playing hockey last week and apparently my big toe on my right foot was either stepped upon, or slashed with a hockey stick

needless, the toenail was crushed and the appendage was bloodied. i thought nothing of it and just attached a bandaid and went about my business

Monday was a whole different story, it just so happened that a fragment of my toenail worked it's way into my toe (like a sliver) and infected my foot

so now the dr. says i must bandage my toe like a mummy, and i can't wear shoes for the next week, so the swelling can heal. did i also mention that i have to take an atibiotic pill 4 times a day?

and to top things off, i go back to the doctor on monday.... TO GET STITCHES!!!!!

what does all this mean to me?

well, when it comes to work, i'm stuck in the visitor's centre for the next 10 days or so. so no blacksmithing for me, but hey, it is air conditioned. dressing up like an elf for it is a small price to pay (the uniform is red and green)

i just pray that all this is healed come the 13th of august, cause that's when i head off for non-stop cervesas is puerto vallarta

the goal for this trip: get drunk on mexican alcohol, befriend a guy named julio, and buy a sombrero and wear it on the plane back home!

get your act together you substitute radio dj!

today is my lone day off in the week (i have first aid training tomorrow) so i thought i'd get the oil changed in hank (my pathfinder) this morning.

after that was taken care of, i decided to promenade up king george highway to point and laugh at hookers as well as to go to a&b sound and future shop to compare prices on the 2nd season dvds of the chapelle show (future shop was $16 cheaper)

anyways, i was listening to rock 101 the whole way and it just so happened to be 1230. time for the "electric lunch" with robin larose, a true veteran when it comes to rock and radio

however, mr. larose was not there today. instead it was some stupid sub, who was just trying to make a name for herself while interning at this station, in hopes that someone like z95 will pick her up. let's call her Hoochie McHoochiehooch.

so, 1230 is always time for electric rock trivia, so she decides to do questions on the Doobie Brothers. a contestant calls and gets all 3 answers correct, but what does she give him as a prize? a carlos santana cd.

what?

did they run out of doobie brothers albums?

that's like me holding a quiz show on deserts, and you (the reader) answer all the questions correctly, so as a prize.... i give you a can of soup.

did that make sense at all?

NO

i didn't think so.
