unusable signal

I just realized how late it was just before I started typing right now, but that's not important. It seems that this is a common theme for me as of late. The unimportant bullshit that I have to deal with is dealt with in a way that really underscores it's unimportance, and the things that I take really seriously are getting some more sway. This sounds like a really simple axiom, but it's actually made me a little more effective in focusing on things I really want to do. For example, I can't wait to stop typing this and go and try and write and practice. My job feels really stupid, and I do it in a way that treats it as so (while still doing decent work) but the money I get from it isn't. Somebody who was a jerk or short with me on any given day rolls right off my back as well, and I'm trying not to fall into sentimentality when i'm around people I want to be around..cause i do appreciate every minute I get with them.

My life just needs to be a little bit lighter, and it's getting there. We'll see. Ever the cautious optimist.

Now it's time to go put in the work I really want to do. Down to the secret lair where my giant ruby-powered laser beam, my henchmen, and all my science shit is.

So Jon and I are going to Indy for a couple of days next week. After talking to the folks, we don't have enough time to make it all the way to Atlanta, and since they apparently know the former city fairly well, we're going to meet them there. I still have to work the rest of the weekend, which is okay i suppose. Tommorow we're playing at the Dorff. So when the chain of people comes up to us and asks if we're playing, we'll get to say yes, as well as get free drink. Speaking of which, I have a favorite beer there now, the vanilla porter. Good stuff!

I'm once again pursuing somebody, and, amazingly, my efforts may be working. Next comes the phase where we see how crazy each other are, and if it's at an acceptable level. Hehe.

Now its time to get something to eat cause my stomach starting to tell me to. My fingers need a break. I also need new guitar strings. Right now it would be nice to smoke a joint, I havent done that in a while.

BTW, i'm listening to this great Minus 5 record. Edit: now its Spoon
