So let's see if I can get this straight... I took a long absence from the blog because finals were tearing the neurons in my head apart... that's excusable. But now, school finishes and suddenly I supposedly have mountains of time surfacing and then again I am on some sort of strange hiatus. I think that some of my most inspired blog postings come when I am under pressure. All of those neurons getting torn apart just misfire and I get synapses where there aren't supposed to be any and the result is my blog. That being said, work is quickly fighting to replace the free time and resume the stress present in my head so the inspiration should be quick in coming.
Since school got out this past Monday I've begun to flush the queue of the millions of things that I needed to do that were building up as school wound slowly to a close. I now have my orthodontist app ointment scheduled, I have carpet and countertop visible in the apartment, and I even found a few moments to go check out the apartment complex's pool for the first time. I've also resumed my communications with Zane about helping on his storefront website. Ed is supposed to be asking the higher ups at my workplace about how many hours I can get a week so that I can see whether I will be needing to seek secondary employment this summer (he doesn't know that I'll be doing so if he can't deliver enough).
I received one of those annoying emails from Ticketmaster that announces bands that are playing in my area soon and on the heading line it mentioned Rolling Stones playing in October. Finally it mentions a band that I'd actually like to see! Then I look through and discover that even the cheapest ticket is $62 and Kenneth assures me that it will probably sell out long before the end of the summer which is about the point where I'd be able to decide if I could splurge on going. Oh well! So many of the old bands that I'd love to see are broken up or have half of their members dead so it always sucks when I can't go to one that is still around.
