so what's new?

I haven't posted on this thing in quite a while. I guess things have been kind of crazy and hectic so I haven't really had the time to log my thoughts. I spent a good week or so working on this tape cassette we put out on the label. It's a split between me and Foul Tip. My first release as a solo artist. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. The show itself went quite well too. There weren't a lot of people there (Sunday night) but all the bands that played were excellent and beyond cool. It really seemed like everyone was genuinely interested in what others were doing. And it was a good mix of sounds too. That doesn't happen too often anymore.

Monday I called in sick for the first time. Apparently it was a good day to be gone. Same day as the Bear Stearns crash. Fucking Jim Cramer, the Friday before, telling everyone to stay in Bear Stearns. Though I guess it wouldn't have mattered so much. If you bought it prior to or on Friday you'd still be fucked anyways. Cramer isn't on until after market close. If anything else, maybe he kept you from panicking all weekend long over something you couldn't have done anything about.

The rest of the week went pretty smooth. Went out to eat with Dori, Liz, and Ben at Mysore one night. The waiter there fucking creeps me out something awful. Thankfully they're getting a new staff soon.

Spent a few nights out at bars watching the Celtics' games. One night went out with Jared and Bjorn. The next night went to a bar by myself. They were okay times. Last night went out with Cahak and his friends whom I am acquaintances with. Left early. Tonight I watched T2 and Rushmore and decided to update this thing.

I was just feeling sorry for myself upon reflecting on how I've spent my Saturday night. But I don't have much fun hanging out with people anyhow. And I've got all day Sunday to be busy. Target took a lot out of me earlier.
