ich bin ein auslander

leaving tomorrow for temecula to spend my happy goo year’s eve and pre-eve. be out of touch until the 1st. on a new diet plan so no drinking for the festivities. and no sugar. or bread. or pasta. been doing it for three days and feel a little lighter around the midsection. also a bit lightheaded as i was doing my regular workout. something’s working.

finished up a few last mixes for tj and the last conservative, handing them off to rob tomorrow… then finally we’re working on our ep/album/we’ll see how many tracks we finish by february.

more news about fun stuff coming when i get back. have fun and be safe.

did the christmas thing down at the parents… invited skeely down since he ended up staying in town rather than treking across the country. speaking of that, looks like we might be driving cross-country next week. fun. more on that when we know.

in the meantime, we’ve finally rented a storage space and we’re packing up all our crap and getting it in there. the house is a mess but it feels… lighter.

hope everyone has a good one… with any luck, i’ll be offline for a full 24 hours!

one last thought - i’ve been pretty burned out on the blogging thing lately. is it really worthwhile for a few of my friends to read boring shit i struggle to come up with every few days, when i need to delete 100+ comment spams and watch the server take a sever hit all the time?

i’m sure jason will chime in with some comment about how i’m so completely out of touch and unaware of some new app i could be using instead of mt that solves the problem. but judging from the shitstorm that’s brewing discussion wise all over daypop about the lack of solutions to the issue, maybe not.

guess i’ll probably shut down comments on all old entries, but i must admit i really do enjoy the two months later random comments when they do occur. kind of defeats the purpose of the whole thing to turn off commenting.

fucking spammers.

two days before christmas, and we’re still getting work emails. what’s up with that?

wendy did cookie delivery duty today. if you’ve already left or live outside of la, you missed out.

i have one more shopping pass to do tomorrow and then i’m done. assuming fedex shows up with my mom’s stuff tomorrow, of course.

off to dinner with john before he leaves town, maybe hook up with skeely and marie later on tonight and do the gift thing with them, and then it’s sliding into the hell that is pure family time. oh well.
