It Was Inevitable
Today, in my guitar lesson, I new it was only a matter of time, but the current song to work on, is Dave Matthews Band "Crash Into Me." I knew it was only a matter of time before I got around to learning that one. I told my teacher about moving into a house with 3 women, and he was like, nice, time to learn some ballads to impress the ladies! It doesn't seem like a complicated song, but I suck, so its going to take some work. I'm also going to work on some stuff on my own, outside the lesson, just in case I need a break from the the other stuff I'm learning. Its a Jimmy Eat World song, "Hear You Me," and its simple enough that I don't think I need to learn it during my lesson. 30 minutes flies by, so I want to get the most out of it and learn the slightly more complicated stuff, like Dave Matthews Band.
So I'm just chilling for the rest of the day. No plans for this evening, and had none last night, and I was bored to tears. At the moment I'm watching the Live 8 concert on VH1, and so far its pretty cool. I wish MTV wasn't the ones broadcasting it because they're doing a shitty job. There's too much cutting to people in the crowd and not enough music. And why cut off a performer in the middle of a song to talk to a dumbass MTV VJ? They better not pull that shit when Pink Floyd takes the stage, because thats the one thing that I'm looking forward to. A reunited Pink Floyd? Better be good if I'm watching 8 hours of some crappy artists cut together by the idiots at MTV. Enough said.
Tomorrow evening I'm heading to Long Beach to hang out with Seth, Shari, Brett and his new girlfriend, who I've never met and who knows who else. Then Monday I'm going back to Long Beach for a BBQ at Shari's. I may just stay the night instead of driving back and forth, or I may not. I'm not sure. We'll see how I feel, or how drunk I get (That's the more accurate statement, really).
So I've stuck to the diet pretty well this week. I weighed myself this morning to use as a new starting point. It was a couple pounds more than the last time I weighed myself, but I'm not going to get upset about it, because there was like 2 or 3 weeks of eating crap and not taking it seriously, which is probably where the gain comes from. I have 2 months until I move, so I know thats plenty of time to do it, just have to stay on track. So far so good!
Alright, back to the music. I was going to practice a little DMB, but I can't seem to play at the moment. Happens all the time after a lesson. I don't know why. Then I pick it up Sunday, and suck, but eventually get it. Fun, right?
Have a great 4th of July everyone!

I hate when MTV is the only person to air something. They NEVER play enough of the movie - focusing WAY too much on the vj's. And wtf is up with their vj's?? They're always butt ugly (at least the guys are, the girls are usually decent) and old. Kurt Loder? Is he still on? Isn't he like 80 now??
