foggy brain... drank many beers... party... wasn't in bed by 2 so I came home... fun, though...

Tool absolutely rocked! Coolest damn show I've been to in years, and the girl I took was also very cool (Kool, even). Truly phenomenal players and a truly phenomenal show. I particularly like the way that rock cliches have no place in their performance; no member of the band ever rises above his component, no solos, no soloists, and no spot lights.

work, work, work, just got home and it's 11:00 already, Considering that I was swimming at 7:30 this morning, that's a pretty long day. Not that I'm complaining, mind you.

Tomorrow an alternate care-giver comes, a lady from Ethiopia whose name sounds like Tech One and whose initials are, evidently, TK. The GPs already look a hell of a lot better. It's scary how easily things like hygiene can get forgotten, not to mention whether or not meds have...

the weekend is over. Hung out with my grandparents for about an hour before coming home just now. At Taqueria San Jose, I bought a burrito with chips, salsa, and a large horchada, which I will consume shortly. Swim class starts at 7:15 tomorrow morning.
