Upload, Spray and ACHTUNG!!!!

Hey there.. I realized how weird it is to watch yourself on video. Besides waving my hands and biting my lips at awkward times, I also sway suggestively while playing an instrument. These problems are easily remedied by standing perfectly still, and using my mouth like a college professor uses their mind.

I just got home from work.. It took me much longer to clean up than usual, because I seemed unable to focus on what I was doing. Still, in my form of employment this is not a problem, but an advantage as the more time I spend on something, the more I get payed.. Seriously; I could bring a sleeping bag to work and camp out behind my dish machine. This form of wage labor does seem a little anti capitalist however, as it does not encourage one to do one's job better.. In fact it does exactly the opposite.

Today I awoke early, and went to the 8 am mass at my place of worship. I like to go at least once on a week day, so that I can be just another pair of butt cheeks in the pews as opposed to one of 16 musicians. After this, I made my way over to collect my paycheck. I was pleased to see that it was a big one.. I was however displeased with the amount that was missing. On my way to deposit my hard earned wages, I was approached by a young environmentalist outside Cheshire Music.. She asked if I had a moment for the environment.. I warned her that I was so conservative that I made Rush Limbaugh look like ..........Her, but I asked politely for her pitch. It was a petition to bring up cleaner car legislation for NH on the November ballot. I declined, as more regulation of our lifestyles is not something I approve of. She was very polite, and explained that her dad shared my views. Whatever your viewpoint on such issues, I still respect anyone who risks public abuse to get their opinion across, especially if they are polite, although politeness has not historically been the way to make things happen.

When I got home, I got a call from work telling me that I was needed that night at work, and that my only day off had been canceled.. I was not best pleased, but I do like money. Dude, I have a weird painful lump on my leg, where I was tackled by Dr. Hardy a few months ago.. It is not going away. What should I do?.. Perhaps I should call into "Good Morning with Dan Mitchell" when he has the doctor on to take calls from Keene residents about the various itches and rashes experienced by their friends..

So now I smell good again.. This is nice, as a few minutes ago it was not the case. The rest of my evening shall consist of watching myself play music, drinking ice tea, some inspirational reading and maybe some introspective strumming of my ukulele..
