Real Life Education

Apparently if I was still in school I would be in the middle of midterms. I would be handing in a lot of essays, studying my brain out, and then trying to regurgitate everything that I learned onto a piece of paper. It would eventually get graded and handed back to me by the time finals were starting. I don't really miss this at all, but in a lot of ways I still like I'm being tested every single day.

For starters, my living arrangements are not very good right now. My patience is being tried every single day by a tennant downstairs, and also by my roommate, Brett. He has a new girlfriend who is here all the time, and therefore making small house crowded with four, instead of just three. It seems they sometimes also don't do their dishes. They also enjoy having two hour long showers together. We have one bathroom. Luckily, Kathryn and I are getting out of here as soon as we can... as in 10 days.

I have also been planning my life around a certain tour that I have just got dates for TODAY. I was supposed to be gone all October, but that feel through... I barely got by this month. I will be gone in November though... but for two weeks. This will be a huge test for me in a lot of different ways. Musically, it will be a good experience. But I think its going to be a huge party too, an exhausting party where a lot of travelling is involved.

Another thing that is also frusterating about the tour is I have no idea where the tour is. I know the first four dates. We are opening up for Teddy Geiger. But I have no idea when any of the rest of the tour is. And packing is going to suck.

And as far as Monday nights go, there will be no more Monday night education. I don't need to wait around for anybody. Steve is a great friend, but thats as far as its ever going to get. This test is done. I'd say that I passed.
