friday day five

so it’s friday – and day five of no sugar – wheeee!

i’m actually feeling pretty good today and despite my whacked out mood this week i’ve managed to accomplish quite a lot including:

• setting up a investment savings account to put my savings towards a house in
• writing a long letter to a friend in jail
• packing boxes
• visiting with a friend from out of town
• mailing off all the stuff i sold on ebay
• finishing off another section of the rug i am working on
• a whole bunch of random stuff at work including troubleshooting other people’s problems with a system i set up, and researching and ordering hardware to get my next project started
• following up on a lot of email

and i also have agreed to record on a friend’s album so next week i’m going to meet up with him and some others to see what we can lay down. i haven’t really been playing much fiddle lately (or singing for that matter), though i want to! so i think that working on someone else’s project will be useful to kicking me in the ass a little bit.

there have been a bunch of people viewing my apartment this week, including one woman who has been back twice with her realtor. she seems pretty keen and i’m hoping she will put an offer in on it so i can get on with scheduling the rest of my life. i am trying to figure out going to cali in october and the ffa has been invited to play a show in sf at the same time… so i hope that as a band we will be able to get it together to do a mini-tour and i can fold in visits to folks at the same time. we’ll see – the band has been a little dysfunctional as of late so i’m not too optimistic we will get enough members committing to the trip.

and on it goes….
