Today, Joe is going to pick up the truck, and we are going to load it up.
Then tomorrow we're driving out to Abbotsford, to give some stuff the Kelley and Adrienne, then we're moving.
We're doing it that way so we won't have to be driving in the dark. Especially with the weather right now. And we'll have a good night's rest before the move as well. And on moving day, not a lot of actual work. I just still haven't grasped this moving thing.
Now, today's song was a big one-hit wonder. Everyone knows this song. And since its release, it has been covered by at least 15 big-name bands of Swedish, Spanish, Mexican, Chilean, German, Canadian, Australian, and American descent. It was also on a Kidz Bop Kids CD.
The song talks of freedom and dignity. It's about society telling us how to to live; it's about people speaking up and taking what is rightfully theirs. It's about living life the way you want to, and not conforming to the ideals of others. It was banned in the 80's, but that was revoked in 2003. Some call it the ultimate rebellion song. By now, I know you're all going: we don't effing care, just get to the song. So I will. We're Not Gonna Take It by Twisted Sister.
HAHAHA. "Mini guitar solo". This one makes me laugh. Except the person needs to learn where to put capital letters vs lower-case letters. Oh well. Happy Tuesday, guys.

one of my favorite lesser played 80's gems is Tarzan Boy by Baltimora. it was the closing credits tune on TMNT3, and one time on my mission we heard it coming from a radio in a shack while walking down some jungle path. so we stopped and listened to it before moving on. so it's gotta be good, give it a listen!
ReplyDeleteand if you stop in merritt for gas mid-move gimme a call! although tomorrow is my crazy 18 hour day, so i might not even pick up...
Hahah, the actual music vid is so weird. I managed to read your entire description, but I had to do it in sections; cannot brain very well today. But if you judge me for it, I won't take it.
ReplyDeleteSorry I am commenting late. I am actually catching up from yesterday. It was a very full and hectic day yesterday and I have a feeling that today will be along the same lines. I just haven't officially started it though which is why I am able to be on here.
ReplyDeleteThe captions on this video makes me laugh.
Now I get to watch today's letter.
Oh, btw, I got your stampless letter today!! Hooray!
