Update #3


What have I been doing you might ask?
Last night I received the gift of free drinks. The first one was good, but the last two or three were a mixed bag. I went from bourbon, to vodka, to rum twice. I broke my own rule by mixing drinks. I woke up with a weird taste in my mouth. I think it was the rum and coke.
            What else? I’m recording another song with Martin. It’s tentatively called, A Dust Covered Man. The title is a little much, kind of pretentious. I might drop the A, and just call it Dust Covered Man. It’s sounding pretty good. I leave my music to providence. I walked into the session not knowing what I was going to play. You kind of say a prayer at that point and hope for the best. As it turned out there were musical parts in me just waiting to come into the world. The creative experience is interesting that way, you fret, you worry, and it all turns out okay. 
            I’m trying to figure out how to make my own books. I want to take to the streets with them. If only I had a duplex printer, I’d print front and back at the same time. Kinko’s has them but I figured out I’d have to sell the books for the price of a steak dinner to make any money off of them. I made a jig from scrape wood to press the paper together and glue perfect bound covers on. I can’t wait to make my first book. I’m looking forward to it. That’s all for now, until next time.
