“The music business is a cruel and shallow trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men lie like dogs. There is also the negative side.”<\/i><\/p>\n

-Hunter S. Thompson<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I assumed, somewhat foolishly, that when Cansec<\/a> was over, I’d get to rest, have a space to breathe. Apparently not. I just took a minute to chart out my next few weeks with a calendar in front of me and realized my weekends for the next month have already been assigned.<\/p>\n

This weekend I’m going to the Juno<\/a>‘s for work, bringing David<\/a> along for his birthday. Next weekend, April 4-5, I’m going over to Victoria. The weekend after that, April 11-12, I’m going to be in Seattle ghosting Norwescon<\/a>. The weekend after that, April 18-19, I’m again in Victoria with Ray<\/a>, Nicole<\/a>, and maybe Wayne to drop in on Esme<\/a> and Nicholas<\/a>, who has a gig. Then again the weekend after that, April 25-16, for his next gig, playing strip-club funk at Monty’s, and, even more bizarrely, for the grand opening of the Victoria Lawn Bowling Club<\/a>, which has apparently been completely taken over by oddball hacker friends who all wanted a shot at the Olympics and free downtown parking.<\/p>\n

Given this sort of schedule, I’m not sure when I intend to eventually sleep. Perhaps when I’m dead. Or better, when I’m dancing. Mercy knows I need the exercise, given how erratically\/oddly I’ve been eating. First there came the week of meat, then the weekend of ice-cream breakfasts topped with chocolate and raspberry liqueur. Nothing I would ever complain about, though I am beginning to forget what a vegetable looks like, except that now that I’m not continually on my feet, all I want to do is sort of laze around until my break down the door weekends, an option that, though attractive, will simply Not Do. So, given that I work nine to five, and Tuesdays are Secret Film School, who wants to go swimming?<\/p>\n

you make me feel so happy, so real. you beautiful moment in my life, as we wrinkle in time, so let’s stretch this thing out<\/i><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
