I've Set A Goal

I'm going to try my best to post a blog every day this week. I'm not sure when the last time that happened was, but I believe it's been a while. I think I can do it this week though. I'm still waking up early due to the time change (and so is DeAnne for that matter), so barring any unforeseen craziness, I should be able to pull this off.

Courtney and Edwin came up Saturday afternoon. We had a great time as usual. While Courtney was hitting the two showers for Jessica (DeAnne went with her on Sunday, but stayed behind on Saturday), Edwin and I were hitting Gears of War 2 as hard as we could. We had a great time with it and I think I've just about convinced him to buy the game so that we can team up online. Other than the showers and Gears, we just cooked and ate and had a good time. We played dominoes Saturday night and had a good time with that. It was just one of those all-around good time weekends.

That's it for today. Tomorrow's the release date for Butch's new album. Be sure to go listen to it at the website I mentioned a couple of days ago and then download the album or buy a CD from his website tomorrow. Butch deserves it. Have a good Monday.

Now It's Friday

At long last, Friday has come. Let us now put this crazy week behind us and rest. Maybe a little rest will help get this time change thing straightened out. It's getting better. I didn't wake up at 4:30 this morning thinking it was almost time to get up. Also, it was after 9:00 when we went to bed last night.

When Rock Band 2 was released they promised everyone that bought it 20 free songs. The list of what they were going to be was released a week or so ago and they came out yesterday. I don't recognize a single band on the list so maybe they'll be good. At least they were free.

Speaking of Rock Band 2, our old bandmates, Courtney and Edwin are coming up this weekend. Courtney's sister is getting married and has a couple of showers this weekend so they're going to let us repay them some hospitality and stay with us while they're here. We're really looking forward to it and it should make for a fun weekend.

I hope you all have a great weekend too. See you on Monday.

What Day Is It?

It's only Thursday but it feels like it should be Friday for some reason. I think it's the time change still messing with me. I don't know why, but this years change seems to really have taken its toll on DeAnne and I. We went to be last night at 9:00. That's about the latest we've made it all week. I would say that the problem is the way they moved the change back a week, but this is the second year it's been like this and I don't remember it being this bad last year. Who knows. Maybe we're just getting old.

We pre-ordered the new Butch Walker album yesterday. If you pre-order you get the album, a poster and a t-shirt. Check it out here. After listening to the album yesterday I have to say that it's as good as I hoped it would be. It would be really awesome if this is the album that get's Butch out there and get's him some recoginition for something other than his production work on other band's CDs.

That's about all I've got for today. Have a good Thursday (even though it still feels like Friday to me) and I'll see you tomorrow.
