So, the most interesting part of my week was the trip I took on Monday night.  I went to Winnipeg to see the Eagles perform at the MTS Center.  I saw them once already, about two years back, but after the performance they put on then I knew that I had to see them again.

The guys I went with live in Neepawa, so after my class ended at 3:30 I drove straight there.  From there we headed to the city but we stopped at the Flying J gas station at Headingly.  We went in to buy snacks and so on and when we came back out, the vehicle wouldn't start.  We thought it would be a simple fix, just a connection problem with the battery, but after trying for fifteen minutes or so, we realized the problem might be a little more serious than we thought.  Finally, a bystander who had been watching our efforts and laughing, decided to lend a hand.  By this point I thought for sure we would miss the concert and was even starting to wonder if I would be able to make it home that night.  It turns out the problem was just a connection problem, but the stranger knew how to deal with it pretty easily and the car finally started.

By the time we got to the arena we were about half an hour late.  I heard "Witchy Woman" and "Tequila Sunrise" as we were showing our tickets.  Other than that, we really didn't miss too much.  Our seats were in the top section but we still had a great view and it was an awesome show.  My favourite part had to have been the guitar battle between Joe Walsh and Glen Frey, but the whole concert was pretty amazing.  I think Joe Walsh might just be the coolest guy alive.

We arrived back in Neepawa around 2 am so I stayed the night there and left for brandon at about 7:20 on Tuesday.  I was very tired for my 8:30 class but it was definitely worth it.

Well, thats all for today so "Take it Easy".
