when i saw the dude in the cool shirt, i was born and i was dead

so last night i went a little crazy and started doing some cleaning...i took everything out of the practice room, swept it, vacuumed it, mopped it, and started re-arranging it...it looks a lot nicer (i.e. not horribly filthy) and hopefully it will be set up in a way that's more conducive to rock (and far less cramped...) i also plan of devising some system for putting random crap so little random crap won't just end up strewn about the floor...the cabinets in the hall may come into play, methinks...anyway, i still haven't finished moving everything back into the practice room...i guess i'll be working on that some tonight...but i did receive that visit from Matt last night...he was with a friend of his and Jason and Amanda came over to relive old times as well...so it was a nice ol' time...Matt says he's been cutting down his medication and it shows...he was actually somewhat coherent! but, of course, still good ol' "crazy" Matt...hoo-ah! and i think we're gonna be doing a musical collaboration via mail...so that should be fun...i was wearing my new Can shirt to work today and this guy who had just started training there said something about it...we only had a very brief passing conversation but he mentioned Silver Apples...so that was neat...maybe i'll make a new friend...awww...(see, rock'n'roll t-shirts bring us together...) he seems like a good ol' big nerdy kid...(and not in the hip emo way, like so many others that work with me...they may wear glasses but do they know who Can is? you can't be hip and a nerd at the same time, assholes...don't ask me why i'm talking to people who aren't here...but i seem to be a bit overrun by digression...) anyway he also asked if i play anything, so as i actually have a show next week i mentioned that...he said he's seem the bandname around on flyers or such...which i find odd...i mean, we did make super-cool flyers for some of those shows those years ago...maybe they were noticed...i dunno...maybe he's just confused...anyway i guess i've run out of crap to say...
p.s.
my roommate's most recent addition to his cat family Bernie (as Jason christened her...) is sleeping on my chair behind me...it's just damned cute, that's all...
