My new shirt. Thats for you if you dont like it.

Friday

So, the big news for me in my little self indulging world is that I ordered a brand spankin' new drumkit yesterday. Yeah... I'd say it was an impulse buy but truth is I've had my eye on a new one for a while. Call it a belated birthday present to myself. I already have a kit that I use only for the Junkeez and I say "only" because after every show we play here I'm usually in too much of a "good mood" to break down my gear so our road crew ends up doing it and throwing it in the truck which proceeds to get locked up with the rest of the gear at the studio. Therefore it becomes one big pain in the ass to go get it afterwards... So I say screw it. I also have another smaller "B" kit which I use for another band that I play with which after this new purchase, will be deemed my "floating" kit. I'll probably use it for multi purpose gigs around town etc.... Bored yet?

Anyways, I am having a little bit of buyers remorse but I'm sure that once it gets here I'll giddy like a school boy.

In other news, it is Friday today and that always makes me a bit chipper. They say today is going to be one of the hottest days of the year... I say "bring it on!" Temperatures to reach 115 degrees so if you don't live in AZ, thank your cooled off little arses'. For those of us that do, make sure you wear the least amount of clothing as possible to stay cool.

I'm not wearing any underwear today.

Happy Friday.

This Saturday

Hey all you day drinkers... just wanted to remind you that if you find yourself with nothing to do this saturday afternoon and feel a thirst quenching feeling coming on then head on down to Dos Gringos in Tempe. Why? Because my buddies Chris and Randy will be doing their rockin' acoustic show from 4 - 8 and they've been kind enough to let me sit in with them for their set. Yeah that's right... yours truly will be on drums and rippin it up with them so if you like anything from the following list:

- Coronas w/ Lime
- Good music
- Tequilla shots
- Hot bartenders
- Outside Drinking and getting drunk

Then come on out, I believe this list covers just about everyone I know so you all have no excuses.

Be there... byatch.

For Chuck...

Thursday

Good morning, good morning, good morning...

I figured today I'd try out some positive words and greetings to maybe have a more productive day. I'll let you know if it really worked. I've been really dreading walking into work lately and any little thing I can do to help spice up my work week I'm game for. Perhaps I'll try hazelnut coffee tomorrow instead of Cinnamon???

... sheesh'.

Anyways, I fired up the browser this morning and caught this article on msn.com. This one's for all you single people out there (which I assume most of you are) who may be second guessing your single status. And yes I actually read this whole thing. Kind of sheds some light on the "not - so - bad" side of being by yourself, as if re - runs of Sex In The City weren't enough.

Have a ...
Good day,
good day,
good day.

8 Hours straight...

Didn't think it was possible to listen to Jazz for 8 hours straight, it is with Sirius. Probably the only radio channel that doesn't annoy the crap out of me.

Killing Time

Wednesday

After a night of much needed rest I'm finally wide eyed and awake. Although I can't really remember the last time I ever really got 8 hours of non stop sleep. My poor bod' has not seen that much sleep since I was in grade school. I don't know anyone who gets that kind of sleep man... I wake up at least twice during the night and only when I concentrate can I get back to where I left off. It seems like the older I get the less sleep I'm getting and the earlier i wake up on the mornings. Anyways, just thought I'd mention how nice it was to wake up on not have any one of these following things:

- Hangover (that's a big one)
- Headache
- 3 Hours of sleep
- Gas
- Regrets about what I did the night before

Why can't every morning be like this one.

Dragging Ass...

As I am typing this my head is literally on the desk. So damn tired... maybe I'm just gettin' to old for this sh*t.

Tuesday

Tired, hungover, grumpy, and lazy...

BUT, we had an awsome show last night!!!! Before I go on though let me just apologize to anyone who came out and couldn't get in because apparently it was an "Industry Invite Only" party. This little piece of information was not relayed to me which would have helped out ALOT. I ended up telling all kinds of people about the show and ended up feeling like an ass when I found out that news so once again, a big I'M SORRY to anyone who got turned away. I'll promise to be more on top of the ball next time about that kind of stuff.

Anyways, the good news is that the show was great and it was good to get back in the saddle again with the guys. It's been way too long. Definitely looking froward to the Aug. 12th show at the Marquee and that one I can assure you will not be invite only.

aaarrrgghh'

Sound Check

"Sw - ass"

There is something about walking out of the gym into 100 degree weather after showering and still feeling like you just got off the treadmill. I've only been out of there for about 35 minutes and I already feel like I have to take another shower.

(sticks hands down back of pants...)

yup, definitely gonna need another shower.

Monday

Mondays hurt...

Most of you who read this know me pretty well so if you do you know how much I've been bitching about not playing any shows lately. Well tonight that gets put to rest for at least a little while. My band is finally playing a show tonight at Martini Ranch up in Scottsdale and I can't tell you how much I have been waiting for this. We really haven't played out in about 2 months and that has been 2 months too long. So if you're in the area tonight or have nothing to do then come down and get drunk... who cares if it's Monday. I'll be coming into work with a hangover so why should you be excluded from such fun?

On another note, I believe I'll also be sitting in with my buddies Chris and Randy over at Dos Gringos in Tempe on Saturday form 4 - 8. They have been kind enough to let me rock out with them during their acoustic set but don't let the "acoustic" word mislead you. They definitely get the party going. I'm looking forward to doing this just as much as tonight.

So there it is... I can stop my bitching about playing at least for this week. Next week, back to the yapping and complaining, blah', blah' blah'!!!!

!@#$%^

Don't know what's up but I've been blogging like a mad man via phone this weekend and it seems as though none of it made it up to the site... Didn't want you to think I was slippin'. Looks like I gotta go buss' some heads over at blogger.com again.

Hope you had a good weekend. More blogging to come.
