woahhh man

I woke up at 5 am this morning and just could not get back to sleep. It's almost 10 now, so I'm thinking it's time to give up and get the day started.

Less than a week before I head to Austin, and I'm excited though a bit nervous as well. I'm having a hell of a time booking shows for when I return - can someone please explain to me why this has to be difficult? If you say the only way to book is via email, will you please then reply to your email? Even if you don't want to book me, that is fine, but could you just grace me with some sort of response so I know the jokes not on me?

I was told yesterday that I would difficult to work for. I took it as a compliment...I have extremely high expectations of myself, and therefore tend to hold others to those expectations as well. Which is completely unfair, I am aware. I'm working on it. One annoying thing about working for myself that I have noticed is that I can't call in sick when I feel like not going to work. I know I'm bs-ing myself because I am my own boss. That totally sucks.

Off to staples. I'm doing some home-office renovations today. It's almost as cool as school supplies shopping.
