I really need to stop smoking and drinking coffee at the same time when I am stressed. I have finally begun to realize that smoking usually does NOT calm me down, it actually has the reverse effect.
I was really uptight all day about my anthro midterm which will be in about 6 hours Central time. I was having that feeling that you are super rushed, and In a hurry, yet, I had nothing I had to do. I couldn't sit still, and I had this disgusting melancholy feeling.
Of course, I am never one to fully get crazy, for tonight was a show with the Promise Ring! yes, the Promise ring, one of my musical heroes, played to a small yet enthusiastic crowd tonight. Sadly, it was a school night during midterms , so the turnout was not as good as it could have been. It was such a great show. They played their new stuff from "Wood/Water" and it sounds great, very "jam" band sounding stuff. And of course, the boys played with their heart on their sleeves and ran through their more popular older material. This show tonight, although long and late starting, was a perfect remedy for my mid term blues. But, of course, more studying is needed so I will leave you with this blog.
oh yea, davey, the lead singer/guitarist, who happens to be one of my musical gods, I was able to have another conversation with him like last year, only this time, he signed my copy of Giant Robot!
take that all you haters!
