pay attention

I really need to start paying more attention. After this week, I'm pretty convinced that my attention to detail is about half as acute as everyone else's. First, I drove my happy ass to the north side to have lunch wobble scoop, then mapped through her calls telling me that she got off early. Then, she offered to stay but I sent her home so she could sleep well for work, even though she intended to take he morning off. Deciding to make the best of it, we wanted to meet up for lunch, we met up at bdubs. And it would've been fine, except I (for some reason) drove to Avon, rather than the one close to both of our houses. Last night, after she came over while I was working, cleaned my apartment, bought beer, got a pizza, and watched a movie with me. After all that, I decided I was just too tired to stay awake and fell asleep. Idiot. And today, we had a good morning. Played some scene it. Went shopping for puppy goodies. Took bald that had to be abruptly stopped because I had to go to work... an hour early. So I'm at my favorite place in the world, Starbucks, watching a middle-class Avon family play euchre until I have to go back to work.

This is my statement: FROM THIS POINT ON, I VOW TO PAY MORE ATTENTION TO THE FINE DETAILS OF MY LIFE.

This means, no more misunderstandings, no more short nape, and no more squandered opportunities.

scoop and i went to the grand reopening of ichiban for some delicious sushis (i had phad thai).  it was wonderful, but these douchebags were draining all of my will to live.  "coolest couple over 40 at the dave concert" status.  dude being a dickhead to his kid.  the usual.

hey bastard jams are coming along.  i almost have "all my days" down.  i just need to get it done.

1 year plan:  learn/record the entire album, tour, film music video, (maybe) move to austin

nelson is asleep in my lap right now and i absolutely cannot believe how big he is.  i think i may be too hard on him though.  he tends to think i'm going to punish him when i try to pet him or pick him up.  and he tinkles when anyone comes around.  i think it's a show of submission or something.  i think he just needs some more 1 on 1 face time.  plus, i think getting him fixed will help greatly. i guess we'll see.

Band practice was pretty Damn successful today. We jammed a few songs. Sounded great with Ryan. I'm pretty confident with this whole capitol thing. Will had me read the emails and the side seemed pretty interested in what we have been doing. So, the next step is to learn the rest of the set and play some shows. Then, full-length.

I've been sort of stressing about my living situation though. Renovations are still in-progress on my building. I'd love to stay here, but I'm pretty sure they're hiking my rent. So I'm left with the decision to downsize my place (which seems to be the best bet), find a roommate, or move home (which I really don't want to do. Also, touring is definitely in the cards. So, I need to really start thinking about setting back some money to pay for it and take care of bills when I'm gone. I need to find places for nelson and yummy too. This is getting out of control.

I may have prevented a friend from dying under a bridge

Jonathan showed up @ fridays today, having been thrown out by his dad. He was obviously emotional and upset. So, I chased his ass down the street and had a little session on the side of the road, in he pouring rain. Followed him a little further, saw him looking around this bridge. Then, Casey met up and we saved his ass from under that damned bridge. Dude would've caught either pneumonia or hypothermia for sure. I don't honk I've honey ever felt the way I did when Jonathan broke down after I told him that I followed him. His eyes just swelled up, he liked down, said that he has good friends, and started crying. It was actually extremely touching. I cracked a joke about how he always used to call me a bearded homeless bum and convinced him toeave before "mountain jack pike" came home. Jonathan gave him his last dollar as a bookmark. He's a great guy.

He ended up going to Jordan's for the night.

bastards, scoops, and prince

I really need to post more. Scoop and I are going for it again. Made it official last week after the Deftones show (which was incredible). We figure that we make each other too happy to ignore it. Love.

Plus, Ishia has been doing shows again. We started back in July, just jamming and doing house shows at Tibbs. It went well, but I don't know if it's going to last. It's all good, but I still can't stand Austin. And, he and Corey want to take the band in a "new direction." Everyone knows that could either be a great or terrible idea. They want to do doom/ambient mashup. I just don't know.

I've also been jamming with hey bastard. That's actually going pretty well. Actually, Dave and I were going out to terrestrial haute once a week, but Dave is in jail now. That's a whole different story, really. Idiot.

My birthday is Sunday. Im going to the vogue tonight to celebrate. Prince tribute band is playing. That'll be fun.
