fuzzy

Last week was weird - it was sort of like being on vacation and sort of completely overwhelming and exhausting and sort of surreal all at the same time. My brain feels a little fuzzy.

I put in 10+ hour days at work, and didn't really mind too much.

The weather was surprisingly gorgeous all week.

Charlotte, one of my BFFs, was in town all week, so I spent a lot of time playing with her.

I didn't really like the new episode of House all that much (relative to other episodes of House).

I finally ate at a Cameron Mitchell restaurant. I enjoyed it; it was a little different, the service was good, and the food was quite good.

My brass quintet confirmed our first gig. It's a volunteer thing and it's in front of a lot of people. So we really do need to decided on a name so we can use the opportunity to promote the heck out of ourselves.

Saturday Charlotte and I went to play in the apple store. My intention was to drool over the macbooks. I walked out with a 5th generation 30g ipod. Then 3 hours later I realized that I forgot I get a corporate discount. So maybe next week I'll go back and see if they'll apply it.

Saturday night we went to Mac's, one of our favorite local pubs, with some friends. Then Charlotte had a tattoo appointment (her second one - to celebrate turning 30 this year). We went to Fate Tattoo. Her artist was named Shannon. Her tattoo is an Innuit moon on her shoulder blade. (Her first tattoo was/is a sun). The tattoo is beautiful. The artist was super nice and funny and talented. The prices were reasonable. I know where I'm going to get my tattoo.

I'll probably see Charlotte off sometime this early afternoon. Then I have quintet rehearsal. Then it's back to life as normal. I think.
