What's new in Mettlerville?

What's new in Mettlerville?

I know that is the burning question on everybody's mind today... the one everyone is pondering as they have lunch, take a break from work, or drive to the store. Well, I'm here to fill you in and keep you informed. All two of you who even stop in to find out (my own fault for not writing more, I know).

Two weeks ago, I was sick sick sick as a dog (however sick dogs may be... never quite understood that saying, but it's apropos so I use it). Last week, I was away for work for two days and swamped the other three. Friday night, we went to see REO Speedwagon, Styx and Def Leppard in Atlantic City (saw the sets by the first two and heard half of the last one while we were standing backstage talking to Tommy from Styx). I spent the weekend cleaning my house top to bottom, and a friend of mine from my school days was in town to visit last night with her family. Tomorrow, my parents come to visit for a long weekend.

So it's been a bit topsy-turvy here -- lots going on, lots to get done, not much time to do anything other than work, clean, sleep, or get better (when I was sick).

Lots of shows and events coming up... it's going to be a busy rest-of-April. We're going to see Asia next week, a show for work on Friday night by a band called Miggs, and then on the following Sunday we're going to see Kids In The Hall, which will rock my funny bone.

Then, the last week in April we're going to three (count 'em - THREE) Crowded House shows. Ah yeah! Ok, I'm sure that seems excessive. But I have to get my Neil Finn fix, plus they are planning to roll out some new music and "try it out" live on those of us lucky enough to be there, so who am I to say no? I truly believe the set lists will vary quite a bit from night to night, so I expect to be dazzled by the volume of tunes I'll bear witness to in a live setting over those three nights. It had to be done. I was only going to go to one night, but then my computer bought tickets for us to the other two nights of its own accord. Yeah, I'll blame my computer for it. That'll be my story.

Truth be told, I had been wondering what you were up to. :-) I just got over that "sick as a dog" bug, too. Glad you're better and out having fun.
