Yesterday was awful!! I just don't know where to begin. I lost my ID in a span of 2 hours. any clues to where it may be??? let me know because i think i am loosing my mind.
the only reason i stayed in town this weekend was because i played a gig last night in como, ms. for thoses of you who know anything about mississippi, you get to como then you leave como. here are some of the things that happened last night:
1. when we (the violin player and i) get there we discover it is an outdoor reception. bad bad bad. had we known it was going to be outside, we would have asked for more money.
2. the people of como are not very friendly. we walk up to the house and ask if we are in the right place and the lady says to set up over there. no "hi's" "how are yous" "what's your name" . just set up on the porch over there.
3. asks if we need chairs......um yah...the nearest light is about 15 feet away. some of my notes look like blobs of ink
4. we start to set up and someone brings out two very fancy chairs that are LOW. we sit on the pillow that are on the back of the chair to make us higher off the grouand.
5. about 9:20sih, someone comes by and says the people will be over soon. the lady says we are all ready IF the musicians would start playing. we weren't supposed to play until 9:30-45. ???? were did this come from.
6. the guy who hired us doesn't come up and talk to us until we are almost done! and asked is we were paid yet. um no. then gets are checks.
7. almost done, feeling good. two kids run by. no big deal right? wrong. as they come back by us. one girl throws her cup of "water" and the contents end up all over me and my cello. woah. i'm just a little mad right now. all over my cello and bow. and me. we start wiping it off and discover that it is not water but sparkling grpae juice. asdklfjhakljghsakljgdhsakfjd. my cello smells like grape juice. the kids ruined my bow. i have to get it rehaired. i don't know what dampage it did the my cello but i was livid. i placed a couple of emergency calls to my cello teacher and friends. let's just say. i'm not too happy right now. that's all i can say because im so angry. if i snap at you in the near future...i am not in my right mind.
