Heaven on Earth and Hectic Planning
Critics will tell you that multi-tasking is less efficient than being focused. This week, unlike most, I'm inclined to agree. Usually I'm a proponent of mentally investing in different directions but over the past few days, I think I'm a little too scattered.
It's been a while since my last post, so let me try and put it into perspective. My last post was before a Division gig, which was an absolute blast. Check out the post-show blog over on Division's MySpace page. After that, we had a band meeting to try and solidify our to-do lists, recording schedule, marketing opportunities, goals and plans for the next few months. That filled our brains up, as well as our calendars.
I went to Bermuda for five days with Sybir. It was amazing. We went kayaking, mountain biking, snorkeling, sailing and drinking...did I mention drinking? It was a refresher that I didn't realize I needed until I was there.
While in Bermuda, I finished up Robert Kiyosaki's "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" novel. I'm excited about getting a chance to see him speak next weekend. I also finished "Heaven and Hell" which is Don Felder's book about his time with the Eagles. As a lifelong Eagles fan, I wasn't necessarily surprised, but I enjoyed it immensely, and it provided a new perspective on some of the songs.
Just Wanna Play had our first gig at Yak-a-Doo's in Fredericksburg the night after I got back. It was an absolute blast. I think reading Felder's book is helping me devote more attention to my musical practice. Tonight is a Division rehearsal.
I managed to get some writing in the last two nights, as well as finish drafting a paper for school and returning to Tae Kwon Do class. Oh, and I met Chris Flick, creator of the web comic Capes & Babes. I'm really not sure where I am at the moment, so maybe if I figure it out, I'll let you all know. Till then, it's back to planning the Rev Your Engines 2008 event.

Kinda makes you want to go back to Bermuda and sit on the beach again doesn't it? Slower pace there but still managed to get everything done in a day! ;)
You'll get it organized angel. You always do. Sometimes it takes me weeks and sometimes I have to cut things out of the list.
Then again...I think I'm sticking with the 'get three things done a day' idea. It seems to work well.
