Need to Update More

Yes, I need to update more. I am aware.

I'm sitting here trying to catch up on e-mail and catch up on Netflix. Yes, that which is a relaxing thing for most is a task to me. I have about 100 movies in my queue on Netflix and I'm trying to get through as many as possible. So, here I sit watching Oceans Twelve and doing work at the same time. It's no where near as good as Oceans Eleven. But, I can't just stop it and send it back. Some weird thing I have about watching entire movies and finishing entire books even if I don't like them. Don't know why?!

Updates..

Got official word that I am going to California the first week of October for a NAMM advisory board. What a crazy week that will be, band, California and we'll be presenting at the AIU county in-service day.

DCI at Baldwin last Monday. Not a bad turnout. I didn't watch much of the show.

Had my orla surgery last week. The procedure itself wasn't bad. The after effects were not so hot. There was some pain involved for sure. It's getting better now.

Had some weird friendship issues - I won't go into all of that here.

My good friend Heidi is back in town and she stayed here last night since her apartment isn't ready yet. It was good to hang out and chat. But that leads to not a lot of sleep, not good the night before you start band camp!!!

Today was the start of band camp. What a morning. The heat was tough!! I hate heat - my head is throbbing from the sun right now. The excitement of the day. As we are trying to set spots -- discovering the field isn't lined right and the hash marks are wrong. That took a good 30 minutes to solve and sort out.

Ahead for the week--

4 more days of band camp
Running to work after to try to stay current
A wedding Friday night. That should be a fun and relaxing night!!! Hopefully!!!!!

Back to the movie - yeah it's not that good, but only and hour more to go of it!!!
