I need to get outside of this mindset that one bad show is the end of everything.
I have a hard time dealing with dissapointment from our sets and I really need to get better at handling it.
It's hard not to be extremely serious when pouring so much of yourself into something. But we're only human.
I need to stop thinking of the present as merely a gateway to the future in which every step must be taken with caution to get to the next. I need to just live now and accept wherever I step. |

Working on a few exciting projects.
Going back to school. Conflict Resolution.
Reading a lot.
Working on playing guitar. Getting slightly better :).
Late summer outings to beaches and cabins planned.
Excitement for many upcoming shows (Sep 10th, Oct 4th, Oct 6th).
Reading over many sheets of bylaws and permit information and lease applications for one extremely exciting project involving music for all ages in Winnipeg and a permanent place to hold shows.
Keeping my fingers crossed.
If this last thing works out, I'll be so ecstatic.
If it doesn't, we'll keep trying until it does. |

in Calgary right now at a webcafe on 17th.
so far all the shows have been positive with amazing shows in calgary and regina. we're playing another show in calgary today. it's been so great interacting with people and meeting people from different cities, and seeing their reactions. canadians are such nice people. an older couple in regina invited adam and i in for showers and juice when they saw us on the street. another dude in regina gave us a place to crash and food. kristen in lethbridge gave us a ton of beer and pizza. people are so amazing
tonight we're playing with out of sight from quebec and ole, a new calgary band with dudes from sloth records. tomorrow we head to vancouver
i haven't been in too much of a writing mood which is unfortunate as i really want to remember this. but there'll be time to write after.

"An optimist believes we live in the best world possible; a pessimist fears this is true. "
I read that somewhere. Kind of interesting... for a oneliner |

ack
*shakes fist at the flu*
its hard to stay home when i know moneen is playing a block away from me and they barely ever come here
but i know that i'll probably just get sick again if i go. i need bed rest and its gonna be so hot in the wecc with so many people.
at least i saw them in kenora
didnt end up going out west w/ the convoy. it just didnt feel right at all. emotions combined w/ puking 20 times. i'm glad i'm feeling better. i just need to relax and unwind and have a couple stay in bed days to recuperate.
i am gonna go watch a movie or read. its so hard to resist the temptation to goto the wecc. but i'd pay for it tomorrow if i did. and how much fun would i have feeling like this |

tonight reminded me of why i love life
and how things can and do change for the better
how 2 years ago i couldnt picture myself at this show
how a year ago id be shy to talk to anybody there but be happy to be there
how today we played and talked to a ton of people.
this is incredible
mico was phenomenal. i got to play the same stage that the paperbacks did. and giant sons. gave lyric sheets to two "idols"
i'm not lying by saying this is one of the best nights of my life |

i seriously cannot believe how good the new mico album is.
i've been listening to it nonstop for the past like three weeks
as shameless as this is gonna sound
thursday is gonna be insane
and what feels amazing is that i know i'd be saying that if i wasnt playing either
i'm gonna have an ear to ear smile from the first giant sons chord till the end of micos set |
