(no subject)
so, life is pretty slow with no school.....yeah right.
i got food poisoning friday from taco hell, and its just about the worst thing thats happened to me in awhile...aside from my ipod getting trampled on and broken, that is. it was like a four day hangover, only i didnt get to have any fun to compensate for four days of suffering. bleh.
i did play out at the tribal revival, which was pretty, hmm, interesting. i saw brendan and jackie there and talked to them some. john and sprite probably walked by me about a zillion times, and never said a word. oh, and with my bad luck, i wound up parking next to matt the frat guy, so when i was hanging out in my car drinking gatorade and feeling like hell, he was standing three feet away drinking beer and eating sandwiches with his buddies. sheesh. still, i had fun! nooch is a really awesome drummer as well as a really awesome guy. i hope i can jam with him again someday.
i've once again been inspired by carter; this time, im declaring war on the bass world. to kick it off, im determined to train four hours a day....and im going to memphis on the 28th to check out double basses!! graceland *and* bass.....im not sure how much better it gets! oh wait it does.....because.....
RON Y RITMO is playing at Kongos this friday.....ive never been to kongos, but its bound to be...interesting, if nothing else. oh yeah, and im playing bass there too...
other than that im mostly just working, and trying to write scholarship essays before the may 31st deadline in an effort to pay for my soon to be gigantic debt to rumano selano, the bass luthier....im thinking about a second job.....meh...
oh and i still havent unpacked or cleaned my room and bathroom or anything. ug. i read a quote from bill gates today that made me feel better. he was asked about being the richest man in the world, and he replied "i wish i wasnt. nothing good comes from it."
i thought that was pretty interesting. it made me imagine gates doing a kind of prince and pauper thing, where he disguises himself and goes and sees what his microserfs are saying about him, and stuff. maybe thatll be a short story for the summer....
