I got as close to going to Columbus as getting dressed and writing down directions when I realized that driving such a crappy route at 4:30 tomorrow morning really wasn't something I wanted to do. I mean, sure, it would have been an awesome show...but 800 miles just to see someone I probably would never meet up with again isn't very responsible, no matter how much fun it might have been. ;-)
I figured I'd be much better off to keep working today and tonight. After all, that's why I came here.
The last week or so has been fun. It's nice having some time off in between contracts. Still getting a lot of work done, though, so I haven't been completely idle. But sleeping and and chilling on the couch for a bit has been nice. Got a lot of plans in the works for several bands, some of which are touring here soon, or just looking for more promotion. So that's nice to finally be getting something back at this point in time. I have a few other side projects for some fast cash - painting and such - so that's good, too.
I've spent some time working over at Strangeland Records to help Joe and Ryan get the store open. They're doing a really good job, so I hope that all works out for them.
Last night was really wierd. I met up with Sean for awhile...I seem him maybe once or twice every other week or so to talk about things. Between me and him alone, things are ok. Well, as ok as they can be. But somehow last night I got on the topic of some previous relationships and a lot of things resurfaced that I had forgotten about...or at least thought I had come to terms with. Things from my earlier years in college, even. It was strange. I was talking to one of my friends about it later and I guess it's just that over the last few months I've started to really put together the connections of what it really is, deep down, that goes wrong. I don't really like what I'm figuring out. It's bringing a dismal future.
So I guess I keep on with what I'm always saying...keep focused on my work, because at least for now, there is nothing else.
