Too Long

For some reason I have kind of been dreading writing this blog. I don't really know why.
It is already Wednesday and the next weekend will  be here soon, but perhaps I will do a quick recap? Yes.

Thursday Night
IHOP night. This past week it was Me, Chaz, Luke, Tytus, and his friend Noah. I was actually very hungry and ate all  my food. Normally I slow down towards the end and don't finish my pancakes. Not this time. I got home at a decent hour and went to bed straight away.
Friday
Started the day doing deliveries with the last one being Chris. Jen (his wife) made me a sandwich and we hung out and talked for a bit.
Leaving there I headed down to 1215 where I had a meeting with Bob. Long story short, I will be working there full time Monday-Thursday, and doing deliveries on Friday.
I left there and went home where I cleaned up until Caitlin came over. We got food and hung out until Kevin and Michael came over, followed by Stuart and Evan, and eventually Zach and Jarrod. We all hung out for awhile and I think everyone left around 1am.
Saturday
I worked at 7:30 with Gina. It was a pretty smooth shift, not too busy, made like $12 in tips and got out of there right at 12:30. I had planned to work out when I got home, but ended up sleeping for 3 1/2 hours instead. I did end up working out after I woke up, and then headed up to the UG where I was meeting Joe Plante and Max Johnson to see Joe Dunlap play with Brandon Gilliam. We hung out a little after they played and then headed over to b dubs where we ate and talked about the state of the music industry, local signings, and our musical ambitions. It was really awesome hanging with those dudes again, it had been a little while. During the first part of last year I was seeing those dudes at least once a week if not more.
I then headed over to Luke's house where I spent the night since we were heading to the studio in the morning.
Sunday
We woke up around 7:30 and left around 8:00 to arrive at The Bongo Tree around 9:00. Joe was puttering around, getting stuff set up. He had a late night prior due to playing that show. We sat around and talked for awhile and around 10:00 started tracking vocals. We ended up finishing almost all the lead vocals for the record. There is just one part on a bridge that I still have to write before we can record it. We then tracked some more tambourine, bass drum, feedback, and cymbal swells. So at this point, all we have left to do is that one lead vocal part, background vocals, and bass (Joe is tracking).
Monday
I worked at 1215, then came home, ran, got Chipotle, and then watched 50/50, Drive, and Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid. It was a great day.
Tuesday
After working both places, I left downtown and headed to Best Buy where I bought the new fun. record. (I had a gift card). I then went home, waited for Stuart to get home and then we got Jersey Mikes and watched 9 episodes of How I Met Your Mother before heading to bed. Another great night.

Today I am working at the CGC in the morning then heading to the studio at 5:30 with Luke. Sarah, his wife, is coming out with us tonight, it should be a great time.
