    So it’s day 48 or so in my 60 days of sobriety. At this point I have no intention of changing a dang thing on day 60. I feel better than I have in a long time and on top of it I’m saving all kinds of cash. It’s been kind of a rude awakening sometimes not having something to escape with, but now when I’m having a hard time with things in my life I end up doing something useful. I do something about it whereas before I would just escape and put it off for later. Nobody’s perfect I still find ways to kind of escape, but in different ways now like eating way too much junk food or downing a caramel Frappucino or 3. Anyway I’m totally glad I decided to do the sobriety thing, it’s put my life back in balance…more or less.

    Played another really good session with James and Melissa and Nick tonight. Some of the new people I’ve been playing music with. It’s a pretty amazing feeling sharing your music with new people. On stage or off. Makes me feel alive again. I can’t wait to record! I can’t right now until I get a new computer part that’s on it’s way in the mail. As soon as I get the part I’m gonna record a demo of my original songs. I’ve got new songs and old songs that I haven’t laid down before it’s gonna be so fun. Then once it’s laid down I can poke around and find good musicians to add stuff to it. Can’t freakin wait! Music is my fav :)
