Wait isn’t that what everyone says before they run off to become a vagabond…will i see you hitchhiking soon. If so i will pick you up but you gotta play me an Armando original tune on the Jew Harp and/or Banjo.
Alas, I play neither. But I have a friend who’s a fine banjoist (I’m going to write him a set of concert etudes someday, when I have the time).
One complaint for the night (okay, more than one, but I’ll put them all on one post):
This has been, by far, THE LEAST RESTFUL SPRING BREAK I’ve ever had. Today alone I drove to Baltimore for a meeting (that was nice, actually), had a call from the NGA asking me to change the date of my performance with them AGAIN (this is the third time, and it conflates TWO concerts into one. UGH!!!), and now I find that the percussionist playing with us next week did not get a part to one of the pieces he’s supposed to be on. I went to look and see if I’d somehow missed it and found a part…for flute. So our flautist is missing a part now. She probably doesn’t know she needs to show up to rehearsal an hour earlier than scheduled and if she declined to play the piece she’d be within her rights. Either way I have one day to either get her the music or get a second flutist because we have rehearsal Saturday afternoon.
Ugh! Why do I do this?
sigh…i guess i can will still pick you up but you at least gotta hum something…i dont have a radio in the car…
Better safe than sorry. I ended up going to a college I had not visited because I had no interest in it. You never know where the best scholarship is going to come from.
Wow you lost me at exercise. 
You may want to remember doing one of those is hard so do not get mad at yourself if all of those things do not get done in a week.
I never started smoking, I have one cup of coffee in the morning except on special times like trying to stay up this Friday. So you would think I would be good at eating right and the exercise. I am working on those last two. :rolleyes:
My sister (husband’s sister) is hopefully going into the hospital today. She like many of us is clinically depressed. I could not get from her mom why they took her off her old medication and did not put her on new. Sis has taken herself off medication for money reasons etc. and it has never been good. She has said that she would have killed herself if it was not for her sons and she was afraid to work at the schools since she might get upset and hurt one of the kids. I told her mom if sis does not go today call the police if needed to get her there.
I have been looking so forward to going to Texas this weekend, but now part of me wants to stay home.
I’ll hum all of my favorite Arnold Schoenberg tunes.
:eek:
Elena was up at 3:00. THREE!!! As in A.M.!!!
Frankly, I think she’s having tooth trouble, because she did eventually conk out after I gave her some infant Motrin. It did take her two hours, though, at which point it was time for me to wake up.
So I’ve been up since THREE in the FRAKKING MORNING!!!
I went to bed at 11:15 and was asleep within half an hour, so I don’t feel THAT bad, but I’m starting to fade here. Which is the bad part because I have a phone interview for a job at 10:00 and I don’t want to blow it.
Anyone have a caffeine I.V.?
Oh, and the wife and I started the morning snipping at each other. Apparently I haven’t been paying enough attention to her this week. Maybe one of you ladies can help me out with this, because, while I’ve had a pretty tough week and realize that I’ve tended to retreat into my mind a bit more this week, I’ve been a pretty good husband but get none of the credit. What is up with that?
I just had the interview and feel like I totally blew it. Out loud. I was mumbly. Felt like I was stumbling to answer the simplest questions. Found that my one question about their curriculum was the result of my missing something on their web page, and my answer to “why do you want to work here” was pat and glib when I really should’ve said, “because I need a job that allows me to actually PROVIDE for my family.”
Frak, frakkity, frak, frak, FRAK!
That’s mega frustrating, man. I’m sorry. Probably didn’t help that you were up at 3 am.
life is the suck cuz i will miss teh meetup…ah well
HAVE A BLAST GUYS!! i KNOW IT’LL BE AWESOME
Frak! I have a whole moan but so far all my brain can seem to put to words is Frak.
Someone real close to me has made a huge frakking balls up and I’m really worried for them. What’s worse is that its really out of character for them to do something dumb and they were only trying to help people. Not that trying to help people is out of character.
Sometimes things suck.
And sometimes i sound like a teenage girl when i type 
I lost 5 first round games today, 4 of them in the Midwest Region. I had one of those teams winning their next game as well.
I’m at work today trying to catch up on work I should have done during the week but didn’t because my whole system is a complete mess! We changed from Outlook to Lotus Notes and I can’t figure out how to do a damn thing! Nothing is working right and I keep having re-occuring thoughts of throwing the computer out the window. Arggg!
I…hate…change…
written exams are passed, but I still have to tackle some pretty serious revisions to a related project… which is a good thing, but I kind of wish I didn’t have to do it.
Today is the first day of the “get up at 5:00 to get the kids ready so I can make it to work on time to teach my 8:30 class because my wife’s shift starts at 6:30” schedule. It had to fall during a concert week, which means not only do I have to get up early all week, I have to stay up late.
It’s gonna be a fun week!
It could have been 2 weeks ago on “spring forward” week…
I guess the Gods aren’t finished playing kick Head Lance while hes down yet. Today I recieved a summons for jury duty. Why, oh why did i register to vote?
Jury Duty is loads of fun, go dressed as a Star Wars character, claim that you hate all lawyers, that you’re prejudiced against all people and that you can read minds, so it’s unfair for you to be on a jury.
If they STILL select you? Hell, that’s GOT to be a fun trial, in which case twitter the hell out of it!
I was leaning toword a tin foil top hat and a sock puppet named Reginald.
Came home sick today…
Had this Craaap for two days now…
Gods save me…
