The Daily Grind
Wow -
So, I don’t know about you guys, but I am so fucking happy that it’s spring! It’s fantastic! Even though it got cold again, there is a lot more sun, I can feel it and it’s great!
I really hate winter. I mean, granted, Brian and I have had an incredible amount of stress since november - so that makes winter even more dour and difficult to deal with. I might have a little bit of seasonal affective disorder going on or something. It seems easier to deal with if there is going to be sunshine.
Plus - I gave up smoking as my New Year’s resolution. I’ve been doing really well - I think it might be for good this time! I’ll believe it when I get to 6 months, but we shall see. I feel strong. As long as B doesn’t cheat on me and nobody dies - I think I can keep it up! So I guess on top of all the stress I was going through major nicotine withdrawal which is also a depressing mental place to be in, so I’ve pretty much been fucking bummed all winter long.
But - we may finally have a bass player. Yay! We need a new band name, now, however. If anyone has any ideas, hollah! Apparently, Gliss, (we’re gliss.) went on tour with Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and Billy Corgan last year - and as that’s not us, for name recognition purposes, they win, and we lose, and we need a new name.
Sales have picked up at work, which was much needed, 4th quarter was ass! Of course who knows how much longer physical music media is even going to be viable. Hopefully we have some good years left in us.
I am still, however, looking for a second job for some supplemental income. If anyone knows of anything open, please let me know.
In other news, sort of sad, sort of happy, I was forced to buy a new car! The ghettomobile wouldn’t pass emissions without repairs costing mor ethan it was worth, so I am now the proud co-owner of a toyota corolla, 2001. newest shiniest car i have ever owned. well the bank still owns 90% of it, but whatever, you know what i mean. now let’s just pray that the payments and the insurance don’t break us!
rian and I are doing gret, though - beyond the financial trauma, of course. I’m actually really proud of us. I really feel that our relationship can weather anything.
Laura is moving to Seattle, and I am so sad.
Ok, write me. Love you all.
