Hooray for everything!

This weekend was great, despite not getting enough sleep and feeling rather wobbly by Sunday evening.

Saturday's band practice was excelente; it's amazing how being well-rested and having blue sky and fluffy clouds outside can make you feel like you can do anything. I felt like almighty Isis behind the kit.

Practice went by far too quickly, then there was the running out to Silverlake to the show. My connections at job #1 fell into place on Friday -- something aligned with the cosmos and I hooked J's band up with the opening spot at Spaceland for the Sleepytime Gorilla Museum show. The whole night/show was great, great sets by everyone. It's also nice to meet musicians you admire and find out that they're nice and friendly to boot.

Got about two hours sleep after the show before I had to get up and start an 11-hour day of work. Once our event was up and running it wasn't too much work, but just staying awake and minding the shifts and cash boxes and stuff was kind of challenging in my loopy state.

And despite having less time to practice than I would like, last night's drum lesson went very well.

Things are good!
