It was good. My alarm didn't go off, but I was only 10 min. late to my first class, my other classes were alright, then I came home, fooled around on the internet, posting here and watching various concert videos. Tomorrow the real fun begins, tomorrow I start job hunting.

Got a MacBook, visited some friends back home 3 hours away and came back here for pizza before my 2:30 class. Improv was awesome, theory was less boring than it was (albeit still slightly ridiculous.) Got in some really good practicing for my technique, socialized, had a beer, socialized some more. Now I'm going to head to the bathroom and then back to the practice modules until 1.

This is so stupid quoting myself, but I want to the Job Interview and they told me to come back... well today at 12:15 to finish up on some paper work. What ya think I got the job?? Also theres a show that I want to go to later on today. Link Removed
My day was pretty good. This morning I got up and made breakfast for me and my little girl. She just turned three and it is such a fun age. I made the usual eggs, toast, potatoes, beans (yes we have beans in the morning around here) and juice. Conversation is always fun and interesting with her. Every day she throws something new at me. Today she wanted to talk about the nasty ants that bit her on the leg the day before. She told me that they were not nice ants. She also said that she would protect me from them if she saw them in the house. I thanked her for her willingness to do battle with ants to protect here daddy.

My day is crap. Ok I want to the interview, they told me that I was to go with one of the group leaders and follow them around. I did and they asked me if I understand what was going on, I repled, yes I do understand. Ok after that we start going to buildings asking people if they want a reduction on the power and gas bills.
Most people open the the door, some people weren't home, and some didn't spoke english to save there life. (I can speak spanish!) So anyway, we did that for 4 hours. After that we want back to the office. I finish up the paper work and did the second interview, after that the group leader that I was with started talking to the superviser.
They superviser was looking at me most of the converstion, he came up to me and pulled me aside. He told me that they can't hire me because I don't qulaify for the job. He said that I seem like a nice person, smart, and "out going" , but what messed it up was that he said I'm not a people person. I mean what the F^&$? I didn't ask question I was paying attation to whats was happening but, I wasn't interacting with the people around me. For that I'm not a people person?
Anyway I didn't get the job.
Rant over
P.S.
Razor - hang in there bro. I'm praying for you and your family.

Well, now that I've told my friends, I feel okay telling you guys.
Found out on sunday my mom has leukemia.
The worst part about it I think is the guilt. I've had some issues and problems with my parents, my mom especially for a couple of years now. It just makes me feel bad and trapped in that I've tried to do the best I can... it's just that hasn't been that good.

Clear sky, high temp and 6+ hours of practicing and jamming!
I have to say it was as good as it gets

Really sorry to hear the bad news Razor. I know how you feel. I lost my father almost six year ago.
It's true what they say. You don't get over it, you just get through it. Stay strong for your family and rest assure has has passed to a better place.
