ACL is this weekend. Last night's shows were outstanding. I especially enjoyed the John Mayer show, which inspired me to improve upon my own guitar skills as it did the first day I picked up my guitar after listening to his CD so many years ago...
JM was trying to be funny on stage, but honestly, I think he's just being an ass. And for those of you who were there, you'll know what I'm referring to when I say "Ass Sweat!"
Of the other shows I saw, Gomez put on a surprizingly good one. I thoroughly enjoyed that, but I think at that point I was also getting dehydrated. Prior to Gomez we were at the AMD stage for Nickel Creek. I used to idolize Chris Thile's mandolin playing... But this just wasn't that great a show as I hoped it would be. C'est la vie.
I've been wanting to spend this weekend with Ashleigh, so that we can enjoy this music together. For some of those John Mayer songs, I wanted to hold her in my arms, sometimes swaying back and forth to the beat of the drums and guitars. I know she'll be working the Cingular booth today, so I'm inclined to go visit that; however, I wonder if she'll join me for the rest of the day after her shift is up, or will she opt out?
She has put me in a very confusing and difficult situation as of late. I'm still working through my own issues that I have with this, but ultimately, it comes down to a decision on her part, which I'm hoping will sway my way. It seems to be more of a competition now, but she claims it is not. Megan has already explained her feelings on this. She has trepidations about how this will affect me. I think she's right that it will have a certain impact upon me. She's also having some qualms about how Ashleigh is going through this process. Shouldn't there already be a decision? This is seeming to be very "player-esque" whether or not she realizes it, says Megan.
I am starting to have stronger feelings for this girl and I would like to see a resolution to this situation in the near future. I understand that she has other stresses in her life right now, which take priority over this, and I support her with regards to those. I just find myself in an exponential situation where the stresses aren't stagnant and continue to build up - there will be a breaking point eventually - till I wear too thin.
