Oh hey! Congratulations!

I'm being spied on, because I mentioned I used to skate, and this comes across my feed: Picture isn't mine, but a parent just hanging with their kid at a skatepark. As much as my former skateboarding kin get a bad reputation, this bro took the time to help her get better, and just make sure...

Sam cuddled with me this morning! His fur is so soft, and every time I pet him, he makes biscuits and tries to suckle on one of the blankets on my bed. He really made my anxiety and stress come down by just being so cute.

Definitely will.

We need to develop an EPK, so, definitely. Saturday's show we need to sound and be entertaining. I always give 100% in shows though.

So, a label is interested in my band. Drummer and I spoke with one of the representatives, and things at this point sound tentatively good. 50/50 split on royalties, and we'd 100% own our masters. It's one thing for a label to say that, I just personally would like that in writing. That's the...

My knees still crack and I haven't skated since I was 18...

I had a skater punk phase.

Of course! They're now the Quality Assurance Department. Well, Denzy is. He has to sniff and lay on it to pass his quality assurance check.

Sweetwater just called to inform me that my Bogner Uberschall is in, and ready to ship! Apparently, they were on back order, so they had a bunch of orders to meet demands. Luckily, I was at the front of the queue! So, new rig should be in shortly! Speaker cabinet already came, but now we wait...

Gojira played at the Olympics, Opeth is now doing extreme vocals again, and people are complaining about the lyrical content of Cannibal Corpse. I feel like a teenager again, just now I can't mosh, which is a bummer.

My brother's in town, and it's always great to see him. He's having another son, so I'm happy for him. My parents are moving to Nashville, as my mom got a new job at Vanderbilt Hospital as a case manager nurse. So I'm thrilled for them. I always loved Nashville, and my wife and I are inheriting...

Cats cuddled with me until I woke up at 10:30 AM, and we got them a new feather toy, they're doing much better today now that the side effect of the vaccine booster is wearing off.

Wife, her friend, and I went to a Renaissance Fair today. Had a ton of fun, got a couple of awesome local hand-crafted things. The blacksmith, unfortunately, didn't have his greatswords ready, and even if he did, we didn't budget enough for one. Still, my wife got a hand blown glass quill...

One of the best TMNT comics since the Mirage days, that's for sure. I actually was excited when they announced that they're making a faithful movie of the comic. I hope it's going to be rad, as I'm always cautiously optimistic.

It's a benign growth of fibrous tissue that grows in the skin. They're pretty common, but they're annoying, because they look like bumps on your skin, and if you poke them, they're tender or itchy. So I had mine removed, because I sleep on my left side, more commonly, so it was right where I...

Got my dermatofibroma on my left shoulder removed by my doctor. He was fascinated, because mine was much larger than what he's removed before. It was directly under my epidermis, and went all the way to my muscle, underneath. So I saw part of my deltoid muscle, which was crazy. He called it...

They're freaking adorable, even made my dad laugh with how cute they are.

That was gonna happen regardless. I would send some right now, but I found out through my mom on Mother's Day, so that was wild, but I forgot to ask. The kittens barely opened their eyes.

My niece's cat went out and got pregnant and gave birth to a litter of kittens. They're only 2 or 3 weeks old, and she's giving one to my wife and I, and by extension my parents, since my wife and I are moving into my parents' house. So Cthulhu might be sending a lot of kitty pictures! Happy...

It's my birthday today! Except, I turn 34. :mellow:

Studio Ghibli is magic.

Wild, but April 18th is my birthday, lol. And I can tell you, it feels good to get them off.

Well, my mixed voice is getting a bit more range and power. I'm now able to song many songs I could using head voice just using my mixed voice, though certain songs keep giving me issues where I have to tap into head voice, and I'm practicing on smoothing out the transition. I might remaster...

There was a job opening at a local music shop/school for a guitar teacher, so I applied. I have been itching to teach guitar again, but the issue I'd run into, people would say they want to learn from me, yet never follow up, leaving me making lesson plans, charts, and stuff for no reason. So...

Playing War with my wife.

I'm now at 197 lbs. At 6 feet tall.

So, I've lost 34 lbs. I'm now at 200 lbs, where, at my biggest I was at 234. So I'm glad for that.

My friend couldn't go to Megadeth tomorrow, so he gave me his tickets, so my wife and I are going. :)

Watching a nature documentary on toque macaque monkeys.

A small thing made me happy today, which made my inner zoology and paleontology nerd really happy. So for many animals, their ancestry can be fuzzy and incomplete, and for many others, their origins and ancestors are quite well known. For birds and dinosaurs, we have loads of fossils, for us...

Taco Bell is offering free tacos on Tuesday. Guess where I'll be on Tuesday? ;)

Hurrah!! That's good.

I just uploaded all of our finished songs that we just got from our audio engineer to DistroKid. Everything sounds great! I had to do some serious research into what the band members use as far as gear, and to make sure all songwriters got credit, that our audio engineer got his dues, and make...

Had a great DND session, and had a fun nostalgia trip listening to the punk rock bands I used to listen to every day as a kid.

Well, I joined my local city's astronomical society last night, and now I have to study up on my astronomical news and knowledge, as well as find some binoculars and/or a telescope. Yay science!

Went to Olive Garden today. It was good! :)

I had physical therapy today, and everything the therapist did I felt loads of relief off of my lower back. Though, my hip and butt are still sore from the deep massage and pressure he did to the muscle agitating my sciatic nerve, but that will improve with more sessions.

Despite my panic attack I had today, I really find dogs to be incredibly calming and heartwarming. Doesn't matter, it could be a video of adorable puppies playing, it could be seeing a dog excel in agility sports, how to train specific breeds of dog, or seeing a dog that's had a rough life be...

Dragonland just dropped their new album The Power of the Nightstar today. :)

Local Japanese place serves a delicious spicy beef ramen. It is delicious.

I find it heartwarming that out of all the sounds cats can make, over 100 vocalizations, only 1 is reserved for their mothers and humans. And that's the meow.

I helped paint some random stranger's house through my wife's work, even though I don't work for my wife's company. Still felt good to see her coworkers, finally meet them, and have fun helping someone out.

Wife and I hit up the local farmer's market again, and I bought the best honey ever in ID. Made by Macy's Apples & Hives, they make some of the best wildflower honey in the state. Idaho is truly blessed to have different selections of wildflower raw honey. Anyhow, I want to see how it would do...

I sometimes do instructional videos for a guitar advice group, and I wrote down all the cadences as a quick reference. Forgot to erase it, but I tend to ramble if I don't have a quick reference to keep me on track. Same thing when I write chord progressions in a key I don't play much, I'll...

My 7 string guitar that I sent to Sweetwater for repair just got back home today, which has me just grinning ear to ear. Sweetwater fixed the crack in the ebony fingerboard, and its only noticeable if you really look close. They releveled, recrowned, and repolished all of the frets, as well as...

Just got married! :D

My fiancee and I visited a dinosaur exhibit. They had Albertosaurus, Dromaeosaurus, a juvenile T. rex, a Pachycephalosaurus, a full grown T. rex skull, a leg of Apatosaurus, Compsognathus, Archaeopteryx, and the focal point was the giant azhdarchid pterosaur, Quetzalcoatlus. I also got a new...

I got a new phone today. It's neat. :)

Found a great new power metal band that actually plays power metal, not quasi prog-metal. Frozen Crown. Killer music, and having Manowar-esque covers with Conan style Amazons on it just makes it much more enjoyable. The fact the songs are catchy as hell helps, a lot.
