Awesome :)

So today I logged on to Q107's listener's club, because I got my bonus code in my e-mail. Remembering that one of the DJs did a phone interview with Meatloaf, I go on to her blog on the site and listen to the interview, and post it on my mom's Facebook because she loves him.

I'm a fan, too. He's performing in Oshawa tonight, but I didn't get tickets because: 1) Oshawa is a long drive from where I am, 2) there were no draws for tickets on the listener's club, and 3) as much as I wanted to try to call in to the radio station to win tickets, I knew I wouldn't get in, because the station is in Toronto and not only would it be a long-distance call, but I wouldn't have gotten through because there were probably loads of people in Toronto calling in.

So anyway, after I posted the interview link, I decided to try sending in a request for the All-Request Lunch Hour, and I asked them to play some Meatloaf - either 'You Took The Words Right Out of My Mouth', or 'Paradise By the Dashboard Light'. They played 'All Revved Up With No Place to Go', which made me happy. I actually got up and danced around when the song was playing, and sang/lip-synced along ;) They didn't play either song that I requested, but that's fine - I imagine they'll play more Meatloaf later as they're gearing up for the concert, and after the concert as everybody's going home. They usually do that for concerts that they cover.

I really hope that Meatloaf comes here sometime. It'd be a real treat for Mom and me.

Also, I watched An Education the other day. It was pretty good. I kinda want to try knitting Jenny's school scarf: it's grey and dark red, striped just like a Hogwarts scarf. I like it. I have The Breakfast Club waiting for me at the library, so that makes me happy. I might reserve more manga, or perhaps a light novel, after I pick up my stuff.
