Lets go down to the Restless Hotel
see what comes through the revolving door

Lets go down to the record store
even tho� they ain�t got no records no more

Everything scares me lately
-The Clear

start my monday in a 59 degree office & a backlog of work to be done. no motavation to do anything except curl up with a hot coffee & watch the traffic go by. a friend on the phone tells me he is going to have himself committed today & i know this is what he should have done weeks ago but it still sucks & i worry about him. that final step between knowing what you need to do & actually doing it is a hard canyon to cross sometimes.

doing my best to get ready for the indis next week, but i have to work the days before & the business trip keeps making me think that the indis are farther away than they really are. i don�t care about winning, i just want to read the best that i can & let the judges fall where they may. i also have a gig on friday that i had forgotten about until late last week & i�m looking forward to the show but not the 2 � hour drive to get there. at least it will give me a chance to try out some pieces for the indis.

piss & moan, piss & moan, blah blah blah.

on a different note�
my son is hooked on Clean Sweep & has been bugging us to �clean sweep� his room for weeks now. well, saturday we did. he had a blast sorting out all of his things & getting rid of the toys he does not use anymore. he cleared out a hell of a lot more that i thought he would & the room looks great now. lets see how long it lasts. (i give it a week)

I'm also honored to be here with the Speaker of the House-just happens to be from the state of Illinois. I'd like to describe the Speaker as a trustworthy man. He's the kind of fellow who says when he gives you his word he means it. Sometimes that doesn't happen all the time in the political process.

It�s smarter to be lucky than it�s lucky to be smart.

with any luck i�ll have my home computer back by tonight & i�ll be able to write & update without blowing off work. then again, i won�t be getting paid to update so i have mixed feelings about this.

hope you all have a good evening. more later.

be well
