The more I think about how the sound crew’s decision to use Line-Out’s from Kevin and Scott’s amps, the more I wish they would have insisted on being mic’ed. Going direct never produces a good tone. We all know that. Oh well.
Morning
Today was pretty slow at the office. Most of the morning was spent on the phone and emailing. If I didn’t know better, I’d say I was taking part in a B.O.R (Budding Office Romance) … but I know that is not the case.
Excerpt
Her: It seems like most of the time when I want to go out or when I’m at his house, all he wants to do is play SOCOM.
Me: What is that?
Her: It’s a video game about Navy Seals
Me: So you’re telling me, he’d rather play a video game than spend time with you.
Her: Yeah, he’s such a jackass. I hate him. He’s so immature. All we did this weekend was fight.
When I hear these kinds of statements uttered by girls who are really cute about their “boyfriends”, it makes me want to drive my car into a gas station at full speed.
So what would you do if you had to choose between playing a video game or spending time with a cute girl? I look forward to your comments.
Afternoon
Lunch: (1) Southwest Steak Skillet, (1) Sweet Tea
This is freaky. On my way to lunch today I thought 2 things: (1) I haven’t seen Bailey in a few weeks (2) I haven’t Valerie in several months.
I pulled into the parking lot and Bailey’s BMW was there. That immediately put me into a better mood. We were sitting there chit chatting and she mentioned she was working a 12-hour shift today (she’s like a pharmacist) and dude across the way starts trying to get into the conversation. I’m like, “Good Lord man… can’t you see I’m busy here.” –sigh- Shortly after that, Val came in. Two for two today.. not to shabby.
You know, it's really difficult to point when you're holding a guitar pick.
Evening
Jeff rolled into town around 7:30 PM tonight. We hit up Rhino games. Turns out the used power adapter he bought for the ol' NES (Nintendo Entertainment System) 8-bit did not work. What a shock. No pun intended.
While Jeff exchanged the power supply, I was looking through the selection of 8-bit NES titles and came across the game Dragon Warrior!! I was stoked and it was only $2.99. Dragon Warrior II was $34.99 and Dragon Warrior III was $24.99. WOW That's some silver and gold for a couple nintendo games.
My NES hasn't been working, so I gotta take it apart and go dig around and do some troubleshooting still. They guy at the store gave me some pointers on what to look for.
After that it was off to Crapplebee's for 1/2 price Monday night appetizers and Monday night football!! ... or just the 1/2 price appitizers. Not much going on. Bef is still preggers. Tonya and Charitah were there as well. They were kinda busy tonight.
Now I'm home and must sleep.

Nightly funnies:
[Inside the store]
"Well... I'm somewhat of a collector of NES games. I have over 450 titles and 3 systems."
[outside the store]
"Well we know why he's still single... 27 years old, working at a video game store, collecting nintendo games. Now as to why we are still single... No idea."
"That looks like Jack and Jill over there."
"That's definately Jill, I recognize the back of her head."
