I am in an odd mood lately. I don't get it myself yet. I have been half/almost sick for over a week after a couple days of being completely sick. I can't eat, don't feel like eating. I have no desire to put food into my body. For me this is a big deal because I will eat just about anything no matter if I am hungry or not. The other thing to come of this is that I have had no need to drink any caffeine. I live on the stuff. I have tried to not drink it or cut it down many times in my life and end up crazed and with horrible headaches. I haven't had any in a week and no desire to have any. Because of it, I do think it is partly why I am odd feeling. I have no energy compared to usual. That usually would bother me, but right now I am fine with it. I don't know. I don't get it. This is right now....
So sometime soon the boys from the band Entropy will be here to (hopefully) finish recording their album. They should spend the weekend here and it should be enough time to get everything done. Then I can mix and master the fucking thing and be done with it. I have been on again off again working with these guys for over a year to get this thing done. Honestly, I don't think it will be worth the time and energy put into it. It should be good though. Just not amazing like it should be, but it's mostly to do with them, what they are capable of, and thier lack of work ethic. It kinda pisses me off when kids start a band and want to do all the things you want to do when you start a band, but they wont actually fucking work for it. They think they deserve it. I run into this more these days. I blame the internet. It makes all of us think we are far more important than we really are. Fills us with false impressions of who we are and what we should get for being who we think we are. When I came up in bands, we had to work our asses off. These Entropy kids wont even get out and flyer for a fucking show, then get pissed at a club that wont pay them because no one came to see them play. Figure that one out. The tearm 'brats' comes to mind....among others. Anyway, I committed to getting this record done and released for them, and I keep my word and will do it. It won't be my proudest moment, but whatever.
So Christmas is around the corner. It came up far too quick this year. We even put up a tree only a few days ago. Lyric was happy with it. Kids make holidays fucking awesome. Of course in my case, 2 days after Christmas is Lyric's 7th birthday. I can't seem to wrap my head around the fact she is going to be 7 already. It's amazing how fast it goes by. She is such an amazing kid and continues to push and impress every day. I think she is the only kid in the area (at her age) who has been taught to question things. Teachers and friends don't seem to understand that. She wont just accept something as fact, she wants proof. I am glad I was able to help build that in her. I think she has it naturally anyway because of who her parents are. Shannon and me piss everyone off because of questioning and then using logic against them. My kid will do the same. If I do anything, I hope to do that right for the kid.
Well, I am talking too much. Sorry. Hope everyone has a good holiday season. Be safe. Take pictures and post them.
