I totally wish I had access to livejournal yesterday evening (fucking library closes at six on Fridays and Saturdays). I was all pumped and excited and just generally jubilant after last night's concert. It made me remember why I had been a music major and it just felt really good to be performing once again. I probably wouldn't feel this way if I'd sucked ass out there, but we all played well. And all my percussion buddies got a little sentimental since this was the last concert of the year and the last UOP concert ever for our graduating senior Shawn. They all hugged me and shook hands with each other, and you know-sometimes it just feels good to be generally liked by the people who's company you enjoy. I'm still emotionally joyful so today shall be a good day. I proclaim today the best day of the past week!! Wait, it's Sunday, so now I have to change the week from Monday to Sunday...... DONE...... and that's how to do it peoples!
As for the rest of my life, the norm still holds true. I should study more. But, being happy actually makes it easier for me to study so I don't expect procrastination to enter into the study equation as much as it normally does.
And I got a really weird phone call from my father this morning. I wasn't up, but I was awake and contemplating showering. He apparently had just gone to the Northern California/Southern Oregon area, specifically Klamath Falls, where my grandparents live and is rather near Keith, my Dad's younger friend whom he always treated like an adopted son (I always thought Keith was hot when I was younger. But then again, I was about 12). He had gone up there with Chris, a buddy from work who's relationship is similar to the one he has with Keith (Chris-not as hot). And apparently Chris bought a house up there with the settlement money he got from his motorcycle accident. (For those of you who don't know Chris, he was in a motorcycle accident. Yeah. Some senile old dude in a big truck ran him over and dragged him which almost completely severed his leg off). Anyway, back to the point. My dad said something along the lines of leaving my mother was one of the stupidest things he's ever done (the other being letting his first wife run off back to Germany with Micheal). And apparently he also called her to apologize, for the first time I assume, I really don't know. Yes, the whole conversation was weird and I don't know exactly how to feel about it. A part of me is excited at the current very very small possibility that my parents might get back together, and another part of me hopes it will never happen. I just don't know if my parents are right for each other. I've only really known them as "people" and not just parental figures when they were not together. So I don't know exactly how to feel about this whole deal. Anyway, the one thing I'm glad about is this will, I hope, make my mother be less down on herself and more willing to get out there. Oh, the life.
Anyway, being on this new study kick usually means I have to study. So, that's what I'm going to do. And you'd be proud, I studied yesterday too!!! Yeah for the buns!
-Love to all the cool peoples out there, tb
