GOLF BALLS, I TELL YA...GOLF BALLS!

My tonsils are huge!!!  Like ginormous.  Yes...it's that time again..TOOOOOOOOOOOOOON! Sillitis!  (you know...like OOOklahoma!)

OH, tonsillitis...you sick sick bastard.  Sneaking up on me when I'm at my weakest.  I hate you.  Grrrr...

So, I felt the sore throat slightly on Friday morning.  It got a little worse throughout the day.  By late Friday night, it was unbearable.  And then, when I woke up at 4am on Saturday morning...I knew it.  Clear as fucking day...Tonsillitis.  I went to work anyway because I'd be a douche to call in sick.  And, with tonsillitis, all of me feel great except for my throat and ears.

Yeah...when my tonsils get swollen, I get an ear ache.  It's a two-fer!  Score!!!!

Anyway...my lame ass hasn't filled out her benefits paperwork for work yet, so we had to go the falling off the truck route.  Hooray for penicillin!

It takes 48 hours for antibiotics to take effect...so here's hoping Tuesday rocks!!!

And, speaking of rocking...I know you've marked my show date in your calendar.  And, you've been scrounging the couch cushions for change to pay the cover charge.  All that's been missing is a flyer you can print out and tape to your fridge/computer monitor/sex slave.

So...here you go:



if you click on it...you get a bigger, prettier version.

Thursday night, I went out with my friend Denise to see a singer/songwriter who she deals with at work.  Wait..that came out wrong.  Ummm...okay, so she works at the place that deals with the marketing of artists, and this is an artist on one of the labels she deals with.  Yes..much clearer...I Hope.

Anyway..he was great.  His name is Will Dailey.  He's also ridiculously easy on the eyes.  I mean, really!!!  However, it was the band after him that had me preaching to anyone who could hear me the next morning.  The Culver City Dub Collective.  OH.  MY.  GOD!!!  They were fan-fuckin-tastic!!  Seriously...they were exactly what I needed to get me out of my lazy funk.  Energetic, talented, and mindblowingly awesome.  They had 3 percussionists, 2 keyboardists, a guitarist, a bassist, and 3 horn players.  Oh my...Oh my...so so so so good.  Please check them out and go to their shows.  Lord knows I'm going to ALL of them.

Oh, and during their set, they brought on a friend of theirs to sing a few songs and she was fucking great too.  Too bad her recorded stuff doesn't capture in the slightest how awesome she is live...but trust me - She's great.  Her name is Cava.

Tomorrow, I'm having breakfast with my friend Morgan after work (no, not SF Morgan...this is a different Morgan...but not nearly as amazing as SF Morgan). :) She's cool.  Definitely adding to the female presence in my life.

I also started writing a new song today...the lyrics I have so far are really good...at least I to think so.  E. will have to be the true judge of that.

oh!!  I almost forgot!!

HEY...IT'S THAT GUY FROM THAT SHOW!! sightings:
Todd Lowe (Zack on Gilmore Girls)
Dominic Monaghan (Charlie on Lost and one of the hobbits, Merri, in LOTR)

Todd Lowe...was just as awkward in public as his character on TV.  Still...it was cool to see him 3 times last week.  Oh yeah, and I creeped him out when I asked him if his band, Pillbilly Knights, had any shows coming up.  What?  I like good country music.  But yeah...awk. ward.

I saw Dominic Monaghan on my way home from work yesterday at the intersection of Franklin and Cahuenga.  He was crossing the street.  I actually did a double take.  How embarrassing.

And yeah...back to my giant tonsils.

Tonsillitis can SUCK IT!

OH YEAH!  And don't forget:  tomorrow's the 12th which can only mean...another round of 12 of 12!!  Woot!!!  Get those cameras ready.
