Great Party, but missing someone
Accually a few someone. I know Lizzy is in Georgia, and Emily I never saw arrive but hope she made it in Safe. Along with anyone else I'm forgetting I realized a Party just isn't a party without BILL... Oh how I miss you Jeff Covey.
Out at the bonfire (that smoked way too much) it felt so sad. Everyone was having fun but I realized I might not see a lot of you again. So the smoke and the memories kept me from staying out too long. I wish you were home Bill. I will miss you Gala, and Em, I hope to see you while your here.
Band Camp is August 21st. Thats next sunday... I leave in a week. I think it's what I really need now. Between the drama in my life and my medical drama that kept me here, I can't wait to be back in real drama. College. I feel like I'm leaving with all of you. I mean I only was up there a semester, so it's almost like my 1st year... I mean experience wise it is, I haven't spent a year in college.
I'll miss all of you. No matter what I say.
So if any of you want to hang with me before I leave, my number is 372-3478. Call me and we'll hang out. In fact if any of you wanna hang out in reno, I'll be there soon and all of you have a place to stay.

So with my surgery I havent been as gung-ho about practicing (becuase it's harder) but I can't forget why I went to school. I wanna be the best. Now thats a long shot, but I can try. I wanna graduate and then go to grad-school, and gig, and play, and teach, and inspire. I wanna play at Yoshi's and in NY, and lots of places and thinking about it makes me wanna practice all day. But I can't. My face cannot hold all day. This means the academic end of music must grow this year. I have to learn so much about theory and chords and improv that it can make up for my lack of chops. I need to become educated, thats why I went to college, not to play, but to learn how to. So this is my chance.
Reno, here I come
