LOL

You sound just like me. Anytime something comes up that I'm not quite ready to deal with....I start playing Sims 2 a lot biggrin
But that's good that you have more time - you can get that nasty blister cleared up!

I'm not going to do much writing today - I did a SHITload yesterday...and I think my brain needs to rest for a day smile
suzy_kabloozy:
I'm thinking that I should put it on my arm now ... so I can see it, too. I'm sure that won't hurt nearly as much. I have time to figure it out. But then that leaves a bare shoulder. *sigh*

I want to get a tattoo in Seattle while I'm there next month. I don't know why. It just seems like a good way to remember a vacation ... but seeing as I'm hitting something like 7 or 8 states in as many days ... don't know that there is time. Not to mention that I know NOTHING about Seattle. Never been further north than about 60 miles past San Francisco.

You know, people just expect too much out of me. Like thinking. Thinking is SOOOO over-rated.

Have a great day, sweetie! smile

I have an audition wednesday for the Goth /Dark rock band.
I have limited knowlege of that type of music but I know (and like) The Cult.

So when I don't have gigs on weekends I play Soccer with a group of friends. I used to play competitive but I don't have time to train and my body is starting to get a bit wobbly...

Hiya biggrin

How's you Monday going so far?
malloryknoxx:
Oh damn - owwie!!!! Sounds like this band will keep you on your toes eeek
If you don't have some already - get some Vitamin A & D ointment. Stuff does wonders for blisters.

Yep - been doing some writing this morning. Couple of pages and making a few changes here and there - so Monday is going pretty well thus far smile

And yep - the monkey copying his butt is great!! I love those ads - how accurate is it to portray office co-workers as monkeys??

I am going to meet a band tonight for a meet and greet kind of thing. The guys I have been talking to all seem cool.
I would say the music is along the same lines as The Cult. They are compared to some other bands but I don't have the background in that type of music to know who they are.

I have been...

Thanks. You look like the sort of person who doesn't get bothered by the occasional flipping off. But if I have offended your delicate sensibilities, I have a wahwy-pop here to make it all better. smile
ragefilledmuffin:
Musicians are a rare and strange breed. I know, I live with one, and manage/publicize the band (well, I try). I'm glad you hit it off with the bass player and had a good time. You play drums, right? Is that what you would be doing with this band?

That is friggin GORGEOUS ink!!! I really, really hope you can find another good artist to finish that up for you.

Hey!!!! No talking like that!!! I know you're frustrated.......but it'll pass. You know this smile

I know what you mean about going downhill after waking up tongue I feel like that a lot more than I care for.

And I'm not *completely* out of debt - but I did manage to knock off almost all of it. Yeah - it's going to be one less stress factor.
We geezers have to keep our stress levels down, after all

Well, I got a call back from 2 bands that I sent tracks to. I ended up with 4 different e-mails from 4 totally different bands. 2 of them I kinda dismissed easily due to content / lack of organization. These are the 2 that I am struggling to decide between.

1)Dark Gothic original rock. 3 albums to their credit. Sold albums as far away...

Ummmm....yeah. Ok. I'm a big dumbass tongue

I got the link...clicked on it...and then sat here like a dope wondering why I wasn't hearing anything....

I completely forgot that my husband took my speakers to use upstairs with his portable DVD player. He's napping at the moment because he's feeling not so hot...so I'll be nice (for once) and not wake him up.

But I'm definately going to give them a listen as soon as he wakes up and I can get my speakers back!
malloryknoxx:
LOL!!!

Thank you for saying that. I feel much better knowing I'm not alone biggrin biggrin

I'm definately going to check out that band later.

Someone please explain the human nervous system to to me.

I am waiting for phone calls from a lot a people. 1) Money for Studio and new band project. 2) Other bands that I have sent audition tracks to. 3)I am selling my boat *sniff* to help buffer the lack of income from my wife's startup business.

I carry my phone in my pocket on...

I get SO freaked out when I think about sending out chapters and a synopsis to agents.......the idea of someone in some office somewhere telling me that this work I've bled over isn't good enough.....
*shudder*

So I feel your pain. I doubt that anyone in this situation ever really learns to take rejection in stride.

So....your phone buzzez when it's not ringing........

Wait.....this is a *bad* thing???
tongue biggrin
malloryknoxx:
You know, I was thinking you might be one to understand what I'm talking about smile
And yep - same for me with my husband. He manages to keep me grounded in at least one area of life....and really, it's the one that matters the most, don't you think?

The writing went amazingly well yesterday - I managed to crank out 10 pages of pretty decent stuff. I'm at least reasonably clear on how it's going to end - which is a BIG weight off the shoulders.

How about you - any news yet??

So I advertise myself as an available musician and immediately get an e-mail from a band. It kind of broadsides me a bit because it an original hard/dark rock band. I have been sucked into the "cover band" world. I really forgot that there is still original music being played.

The music this band plays is right up my alley. So I am going to...

Oh dear - my bad!!!! I made an incorrect assumption blush

Well hell YEAH playing gigs wears you out!! I understand that's exhausting - physically AND mentally.

I'm good today. I didn't drink too much last night--two drunken guys making funny phone calls was all the entertainment any of us really needed.

I'll bet your son thinks you're the coolest dad in the world because you play Halo with him. My dad would occasionally play Atari with my brother and I, and we loved it.

And apparently, its very common for relationships to falter after getting a name tattooed on yourself. This according to the guy who did my last tattoo. All I have to say is, that's a hell of a commitment and I think its awesome when people do it for the right reasons. Unlike a guy I once dated, who had his ex's name on his arm, because, according to him, she didn't believe he really loved her so he had to prove it to her. whatever
ragefilledmuffin:
Ha--your kid complains when you get a tattoo? That's different. My dad just rolls his eyes when I tell him I got another one. The first one really hurt him I think--he was pretty speechless beyond asking why I'd do something so permanent to myself.

Hell yeah - you ARE a cutie!!!

Quitting smoking is a bitch - I've never been able to keep to it myself tongue IMO, it's nearly physically imopssible.

Wow - weird. A good mood rubbed off on you....from me???
Nahhhh. Must be from Suzy. LOL
I'm generally not seen as the cheerful, upbeat type.

BUSTED! Heh.
Don't sweat it. Just get right back on the wagon.
You know, rah-rah and all that.
