my dream is coming true, i'm getting a club. i'd say it's my club, but it's really owned by three people, but i love Brian and Randy and i know this is going to work out and be amazing. there's been a lot of stress involved with it, getting insurance, paperwork, etc.. but it's all worth it. this has been on the top of my "goals" list for years and years, and now it's here. as much as i want to be really easy-going about it i'm still scared and worried. reasons being: a) i've never allowed myself to trust two people so much, to put on shows, handle money, be in the space when i'm not there, etc. i can not say enough good things about these two guys, i've known them for a long time and trust them. i've been let down by enough people in my life to have "trust issues" and this venue is really bring those issues to surface which is good, because i want to deal with them and get on with life. it's hard not being there for every little step of the club, but at the same time it's a blessing that i have two other people that are willing to step up and do things instead of me having to instruct people to do every little thing.
my new job is great, it's just going to take awhile to get used to. the company is amazing and everyone, including the CEO is really down to earth and really great about everything. everyone there is excited to hear about the venue opening too, they all hear about it almost everyday. (when i talk about the club i get excited and really proud that it's finally coming together, i'm like a proud grandma whipping out pictures of her grandkids.) i get my review on friday so hopefully that'll go good.
i don't feel like i've got the chance to really slow down since i got back from california because of work stuff and venue stuff. i want to go and have a day, or at least partial day of nonething but random fun, maybe with someone speratic (sp?) or whoever. i just feel like i need it, my mom just sat me down and gave me the "you stress out more than i do, or even someone your grandmother's age, you're going to get yourself really sick if you don't calm down and relax." so there you go people, Dr. Mom has perscribed calming down and relaxation, this means hanging out with friends, being around music, taking pictures, and having fun! oh, and a haircut too, i want someone to go to town on my hair and do whatever the heck they want, it's currently very boring and blah.
christmas is in 3 1/2 weeks and i'm not even close to having my presents done yet, maybe i will work on some tonight. i want to go to coldplay/fiona apple, although that appears to not be happening since everyone is a poopyhead and no one likes them enough to go with me! i also want to go to waxwing, and i heard a rumor i am the avalance is coming.
i have so much i want to accomplish in my life that whenever i start to slow down i feel like i'm falling behind and that i'll never get everything done. i need to get over that.
