february??

yah, so it's like, February somehow. i'm not entirely sure how that happened, but oh well. i'll take the calendar's word for it. i've been caught up in doing a show, the harvey project at openstage etc., and that has taken a lot of time. it was so nice to have an actual evening where i didn't have to do ANYTHING or go ANYWHERE last night. took me a long, way over-indulgent nap, played some guitar, and had a nice visit a bit later in the evening. :)

you know who you are.

had a good time at the coopersmith's superbowl party on sunday too. that was the first time i went out and got truly ripped in a while. been quitting the cancer sticks lately and sunday was actually my two-month anniversary. so, quitting keeps me out of the bars and away from the booze. it seems like, somehow, alcohol might just have some sort of effect on my judgment. i'm not sure if anyone else has ever noticed that...

at any rate, i didn't fall down, as far as i know, and i didn't fall off the nicotine wagon either. plus i got to catch up with a bunch of friends i haven't seen in a while, due to my monkish existence as of late.

i've been working on revising my play that i 'finished' a few months ago, trying to get it to where i want it. i have a feeling that if i allowed myself to, i would be one of those people who endlessly revise shit to the point where they never finish anything. can't let that happen. i'm going to wrap it up, for good or for ill by the end of this month. barring any specific advice from someone who, like, wants to pay me a million dollars to turn it into a movie, i'm going to move on to something else.

also, i have a gig at lucky joe's tomorrow night, and so havebeen practicing guitar a lot more than usual lately. i don't know--when i'm in a play, it seems like the music falls by the wayside. as if there is a limited amount of artsy-fartsiness available to pour into projects like these. ah well.

if that's all i have to complain about, i guess i'm doing better than most. :)

peace,
k
