...Aaaaannnnnd I just scored tickets for this concert:
Check out the opening act for the show in Atlanta. Never thought Frog Brigade would be touring again, so this is a bucket list check for me.

Preparing myself for a long rehearsal... we have to get the new drummer up to speed quick, we booked a gig for March 4th!
May it be productive
It was very productive. We're nailing everything without the click track. It's all coming together like Voltron.
Junk cleaning at the office today. I get to purge a bunch of dead laptops, printers, and battery backups. Oh, and also the whole training room!!!
About to go install and configure a couple of new switches.

At the ENT with wife and baby, finding out if she needs tubes in her ears
Hope all goes well! Some friends and I were just discussing how we all had that surgery done when we were little.
I've got a TON of new hardware to roll out... 10g switches, new PDUs, firewalls, servers, and storage (like 120TB usable space!). And I have to physically move all our current production to one of the new racks. And later tonight I'm going back into the studio to double up my guitar tracks and nail all the solos.
Another 12 hour recording session on Saturday, but the tracking is DONE. Now we wait on the 1st mixdown...
Im honestly wiping tears from my eyes after listening to the preliminary mixdown of one of our songs...
holy shit, thats MEEEEE!!!

@gjacobse Need? No! Want? Hell No. What to do with them? BURN THEM WITH FIRE
Let me know where the fire is, I have a pile of them also...
Just got back from the grocery store... time to start marinating some lamb chunks for kebabs!

We have a small middle Eastern presence in our town. Lamb over rice and lamb on the rod are very popular dinner choices in at least a dozen spots.
Where we live is lacking a bit when it comes to middle eastern cuisine. Here it's mostly SE Asian folks, so if you want 24-hour Korean BBQ, there are so many choices. Same with sushi, poke bowls, pho, hot pot, dim sum, noodles, bakeries, boba tea, etc. I don't hate it.
I just got a package in the mail containing a whole bunch of dried chile peppers. One of my cousins ordered way too many I guess, so he sent the extra to me.
I now have:
Ancho
Pasilla
Guajillo
Mulato
Arbol
...and dried chipotles. The only other dried ones I ever had were homegrown and home made by me. All of them are beautiful, they were clearly grown and dried with care. I can get most of these locally, but they're all busted up. Now I'm set for chili season.
Our drummer FINALLY got back from nearly 6 weeks of jaunting around Europe, so I've got rehearsal in a couple of hours! I wonder if I can still play the guitar....
Just chowed down on some homemade beef stroganoff. I subbed in lower fat Greek yogurt for sour cream, I think it was actually better than usual.
Watching it rain and listening to Electric Ladyland - sides 3 and 4.

Waiting for my tea to be ready. Today seems like a good day to get some gardening done
I wish my veggie garden was bigger this year... I got a late start, so I just have 1 pepper plant (tabasco) in a big, ceramic pot. She even has a rolling cart, to come in out of the rain.
Got in one final rehearsal this afternoon before we take the stage tomorrow night. Time for dinner and a shower.
Getting everything together for a nice, long weekend in the woods. I get to be totally unplugged until next Wednesday!

@RojoLoco Then your eyes were stabbed by a flash of neon light that split the night?
Nope, totally original words there, no way did I accidentally steal any of it!
