Guaddage

Work was okay today. MAde progress on my reports and such. I should be able to get one of them out tomorrow. Next will be the billing stuff. The programmer working on that is pretty good so hopefully we'll just have one painful time getting this first one together then have smooth sailing in the future. Work's just kind of frustrating these days. It's not interesting like it used to be.

Came home and played drums a little then laid down before meeting up with Kev/Stacey/Kailyn/Kyle at the Guad. Carlos and Rey hooked us up as usual. Our drinks were being made as we walked in. Nice.

Afterwards, went walking down the mall and talking to different folks and making new friends. Saw Tanya and chatted a little. She was dealing with an irate customer on the phone. Big fun for her I'm sure. My buddy Nick hooked me up with a Zelda t-shirt (LOL)! It will be a cool drumming shirt I think.

A friend's band was in the studio recording their new album so Kyle checked to see if it was cool for us to check out the session. It was and he, Kevin and I went over to listen to them work on one track. I think we'll be recording there sometime in the near future. We need to put a new, better demo together now that we've been playing longer and have upgraded our gear and skills. I'm looking forward to that.

I'm off drumming duty this week so I can take a breather. I still plan on working on new stuff though. Talked to Kerry today as well. He's the drummer I mentioned that visited church yesterday. I'm going to get with him soon as he was wanting to watch me play and "steal" some of my stuff... he's got some good licks too so I'm sure we'll be able to trade things out. It'll be nice to hang out locally with some other drummers. It's a great way to learn stuff and develop new ideas for sure. Now if I could only make money at this...
