(no subject)
I'm told that I last updated this thing 108 weeks ago. So, as a belated second anniversary update, I offer this humble assessment of my evening:
I found a new apartment not far from my current digs. It's bigger and cheaper, and it worries me irrationally. Not sure why. I suppose it seemed pretty quick. I saw the place, and two minutes later said I'd take it. Just worried I'll somehow wind up getting ripped off. Put it out of your head.
Went to the 'open mic' but there wasn't one. Hung out with Emily instead. Apparently, she'll be moving to Colorado soon as a result of her disastrous relationship with Jim. God, I don't want her to go. She's so cool and incredibly beautiful. I don't like art, but listening to her talk about her favorite paintings at the Art Institute almost made me want to give it a (thousandth) chance. I didn't think that immediately after her venting about a failed relationship and desperate hope for a new future in a small mountain town was the best time to tell her I like her, however. I hope I'm not too cowardly to tell her soon. We'll see.
Hung out with the cousin after that and had a good time with him and his girl and his friends. His crowd always used to put me off, because - quite mysteriously, since he's only two years my senior - they always seemed so much older than me and somehow more knowledgeable about anything and everything. I found out recently, however, that they only know more about sports than I do, and I can live with that. Plus, having recently dated a girl eight years older than I, they don't seem so old anymore. I know how that sounds, and it's not what I mean, but it's the only way I can think to say it.
Every now and then I feel shut out of my project with Julie, but I know it's not the case. She's just kind of flaky. Not a bad flaky, though, which is good. I have been thinking that I should try being content with doing other peoples' tunes, and not worrying so much about getting my own thing going. It may happen, one day, in fits and spurts, but I'm good at being a bass player, and I should focus on that for a bit. My own songs will come. Someday soon, I hope.
I meant this to be a short little quip, but I seem to have rambled a far sight longer than I intended. But that's ok, because only one or two of you (dan and ben) even update anymore. I doubt the rest of you even check it. I would like to note that, having read through a few of my 'most recent posts,' I was something of a whiner. Though, maybe that was the point of this. If you can't whine here, where can you whine? Though, there was that unfortunate lesson with facebook...
