Monday July 11th

Spectacularly poor sleep last night waking up on several locations and not being able to get back to sleep meant rolling around in bed till 10 AM. Got up, showered and headed straight for Stampede to go and watch Huey Lewis and the News at the Cowboys tent. I won free tickets from Cowboys last week and wasn't sure if they would work but they did but once I got in I was told it was not allowed to have a backpack so actually had to head on to the grounds to put my backpack at work and then walk all the way back to attend the concert. Friends of mine who were supposed to attend didn't actually end up going so met a few new people and waited impatiently from noon until 230 for Huey to perform. He played 90 minutes and it was a pretty good show but nothing remotely close to how awesome it was at the Bessborough hotel gardens in Saskatoon last summer which was absolutely epic.
When the concert ended I walked over to work and started at 4:30 and worked until 10 PM. It rained off and on most of the night and was quite slow but still kept very busy prepping food and meat all night. I went to pick Nicholas up at 10:15 PM as he was supposed to be done at 10 but there was a scheduling screwup and he had to work until 1115. Had I known that I would've worked an extra hour. Took 45 minutes to get home and once again climbing into bed at 12:30 in the morning isnt exactly my favourite thing to do...
