trying to Roll

I"m hoping to write a little more now that the month is flowing on.. I have no idea what I am goign to write about tonight, but I figure I will figure something out. I have bean trying to encode a video of my band playing at a club back in 1990 to DVD, and have had nothing but problems with it.. funny how a project can just get cursed and no matter what you do, the curse remains.. I know I will get it, its just odd. The good news is that it is making me slow down on the work, The bad news is that the reason I have started this project is I learned that the person who was the lead singer/songewriter/guiter player in the band was in a really bad car crash and may never walk.. funny how badly I feel about this, and I haven't seen him or spoken to him in over 10 years, I only know this as I know a friend of a friend of his.. I heard it through the grape vine, I thought that maybe putting together this disk might be a nice surprise, kind of a pop out of the darkness. I want to have this disk done by the weekend so I can send it off, I know there is no rush, but it is something that I have wanted to do for years, and now I have a real drive to get it done. anyway, I wasn't thinking I was going to write something so depressing, I figured I'd have some smart ass comment to make on my site here and I would pat myself on the back for being clever.. I guess not tonight..

Music Listened to: Love and Rockets, Marilyn Manson, Lords of Acid, Underworld (by the way, the movie by the same name looks cool)

Food Eaten: Spegetti with garlic bread cooked on the grill (our oven is Dead, I sence a trip to Appliencesmart in the near future)

Moral of the day: When length is known to be long, and a wide eyed stare begins to glaze, Thats the moment to strike.
