Thursday is practically the weekend

today.... today i was almost an hour late to work because i must have turned my alarm off in my sleep. no good considering i'm kissing ass in a major way to try and make this position more than temporary. by the time i got there, i was pretty pissed off at myself.
work, fortunately, was alright. busy enough to make it go quickly, but not so busy that it was frantic.
after work i had a 'band practice', i guess. some guys that i've been talking band with for a couple weeks came over to teach me some of their songs. this was kind of a big deal for me considering that one of my BIG hang-ups is playing in front of other people. ESPECIALLY when i don't have music in front of me.
fortunately, mr. band #1 is a very easy going guy and knows how to make people feel comfortable. playing was no problem and i picked up the bass lines pretty quickly. the only difficulty i had was when he asked me to sing. his buddy had to leave the room for a little while, but he took it like a champ.
either way, for the most part it went well, and now i'm not only stoked about being a band (!), but also because i'm working on something that's held me back in the past. don't we all feel warm and fuzzy inside now. everyone pat yourselves on the back. there you go....

Power to you with the band - may you kick some serious musical ass. In the meantime you had posted on my journal regarding my BOX projects, so I thought I'd send you a couple links to what they look like (hopefully the links work)!

The first is a Luscious Box, which is an erotic set of photos and materials that document a mysterious and fictional person:

The next is a Pseudo-Historical box, which is also a collection of materials that depict a fictional person, but in this case, the portrait is more contrived and cartoony than erotic.

Finally I also construct sculptures involving photos, rugs and other objects:

If you or any of your pals might be interested in collaborating with me remotely, I will send more details... thanks for asking!! And again power to you working thru those bass lines...

rock on for gettin over yer nervousness. i've been playing guitar for like 12 years but i'm still a nerd when it comes to singing in front of people. i'm supposed to sing a few songs with the band i'm with now but have yet to bring myself to do it. i'm waiting for there to be beer at practice, so i'll hold off on patting myself on the back.
