Unfortunatley, life can get a little shitty sometimes. Like the other day when I found out from Mr. Doctor that I have carpal tunnel syndrome in my right hand. Awesome news, especially if you have gigs five evenings in a row. Tonight was the fifth gig and I'm sore. I shouldn't be typing, but as I was playing tonight, and being angry about my hand/elbow/arm, I thought about all the little things today that made it special. Sure, this thing with my hand sucks, and I have PMS, but really, things aren't always as bad as they seems.
1. I went to my Uncle's birthday party with my family this afternoon. I got to visit with everyone and eat amazing spinich and artichoke dip. I find that because I don't see my parents everyday now that I really cherish the time when I do get to see them. I appriciate them a lot more. It was so good to see them, as well as the rest of my wonderful family. And my dog. I love Roxi.
2. I got to see my brother. I havn't seen him for awhile he was on a canoeing trip.
3. I played lots of pool at the party. It was fun.
4. I danced in my room to Gnarls Barkley.
5. When my room mate got home today he also brought our cute friend with him, and when the friend greeted me at the door, he said "Hey Sexy". Sweeet.
6. Driving along the river in the rain, and listening to Ron Sexsmith. Beautiful.
7. I had a few really good solos that I was proud of tonight at my gig.
8. Tim Vaughn showed up to my gig and heard my really good solos.
9. Rick gave me a beautiful picture of took of me a week ago, and then showed me a halarious photoshop picture he made of the band. So funny.
10. I got to visit good friends at Lyds.
Ten things. All you have to do is count. It is 2am right now, and I work at 8, which kinda really sucks, but when I read my list I realize things aren't so bad. So, just count. It is too often that we focus on our problems while all of the beautiful, simple moments in life just pass by. Count.
song of the day- Theres A Reason For Our Love- Ron Sexsmith

Hey there, I'm totally bored and was just browsing through blogs until I came across yours. It was the only one that really caught my attention. Cool stories about boys and bands. I hope you keep it up, I'll definitley be back to see how you're doin'. :-)
(By the way, LOVED what you said to that Tim guy about the skirt. I also wish I was a quick-witted talker.)
