a) i got a callback for what basically is my dream job. next week I will start fixing/rewiring the lighting system for the Starlight Ballroom @ 9th & Spring Garden. I'm being brought in by the owner of R5 Productions (www.r5productions.com), which is kind of a big fucking deal considering that without R5, this city's music scene would not really EXIST. the fixing of these lights are basically secondary to the fact that this will open up so many doors that my head is spinning, just contemplating all the unimaginably cool possibilities... *iz dazzled*
b) i asked out a girl today for the first time. she is adorable and intelligent and highly interesting, and feels music even more than she hears it, just like how i do. and nobody died! she didn't laugh at me or make me feel like a d00fus. she was incredi-sweet and we both agreed to hang out and get to know eachother and just see what could happen. somehow after + or - 12 years of trying, i have managed to pull this off! :D
c) people were popping up by the TRUCKLOAD and coming out of the damn woodwork to wish me congrats on item a, and it made me feel so fucking good i could explode into a pile of sparklez. haha i have the greatest friendz in the world. IN THE WORLD, I TELL YOU!!!
d) randomly started chatting with a friend of a friend, who seems like an incredibly nifty sound guy/musician, and it was almost freaky to hit it off so well with someone over AIM! o_O hopefully when we meet, we won't be all like *crickets* "uhh... yeah" lol. i think what's more likely to happen is: "czech out my new Sennheiser mics!" "bitchin! supercardioid condensers, right?" ***makes out furiously*** :D he is fucking cute with colour-change eyes and shaggy hair and types in dark blue Palatino Linotype. HE EVEN USES MY FAVOURITE FONT JESUS EFFING CHRIST ON A SPACESHIP <3
e) KIM THAYIL HAS HAULED HIS BEARD OUT OF MOTHBALLZ & GIVEN SOUNDGARDEN FANS EVERYWHERE
REASON TO HOPE FOR NEW UNRELEASED MATERIAL AS WELL AS A REUNION TOUR. considering the source,b and the manner in which he speaks about fixing the merch issues (re: total lack of availability for SG *anything* these days), there is a better chance of this ~*actually occurring*~ then there has been since 1997.
...and then i shit my pantz, and died.
:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
