I looked at my blog today and realized that I have not posted in 2 months. I've been so busy with work, my band, my friend's record, and learning asp.net and C# that I haven't had time to post to my favorite nudie website. I am still working on the band website www.malgamae.com. It is up and what little information that is on there is coming from a database; however, it still has a long way to go. I am not gifted when it comes to graphic design and I'm not very good at programming either so web sites are an exercise in futility for me. I am working on it.
My band has a show on February 9th. We're opening for 3 other bands and it is our first show so we're likely going to have some problems. There will be lots of people there though and it will be a great environment for a first show. My little brother, who is also in the band, got the show booked for us. He knows everyone and everyone likes him so we got set up for what will likely be a pretty big first show. I tend to be an introvert and he is definitely not one. Between him and our drummer Ben we should get quite a few people coming out for the show. That being said, the more people the merrier.
I've been working on my friend's record since vacation ended. It is slower going than his last record but we're starting to make some progress. His last record was written before we recorded so it was a piece of cake to record. He really doesn't have any songs written for this one though and the ones he has are still zygotes. It will improve though and I think the end result will be better than his last record... if anything it will be a little more exploratory of what he can do. We shall see. You can check him out at www.randycraig.com. This next record is going to be very different from his last one. Much less acoustic guitar and much more drum machine.
The holidays were relaxing. Me and my wife went to Wyoming and Utah to visit family. Every time I spend time with my wife's family I realize how cool mine actually is. We don't have drama. We can dish it out and take it. And everyone but me is fucking funny as shit. My stomach hurt at least once a day from laughing at my retarded sister. She weights 105 pounds and is the captain of the rugby team at the University of Wyoming. That doesn't provide any kind of baseline as to how funny she is; however, it does prove that she is retarded. She sang (I use that word in a completely relative sense) along with meatloaf on the drive across southern Wyoming to visit my Uncle and we cried because it was so funny. It was great. I don't know anyone that can make me and my parents laugh like she can. For further proof as to why my family kicks ass, please refer to the attached picture of my mom and my wife in a ski shop in steamboat wearing the dumbest hats that yuppie money can buy. If my mom finds out that I have posted this picture I will likely be beaten; however, if she beats me too mercilessly she wont get a nice wheelchair when she gets old. She knows this. I know this. I think I am safe.
I just realized that I just wrote the holiday letter I should have sent to my loved ones to a bunch of anonymous people on an artsy porn site. Likely only a handful of people will read it, but for those that do consider this a late holiday letter. I hope everything is going well for the faceless masses and in particular I hope things go well for anyone that happens to read this post.
