Death Cab for Cutie

Last night I celebrated one of my last nights of freedom before my thesis begins. Death Cab was playing at the State Theatre. It has been such a long time since I've been to a concert...I think the last one, not counting cofffeehouse gigs and shows I helped load in for, was Ozzfest about six years ago....

Death Cab put on a really good show. While fairly mellow on disc, the guitar is much more present in the stage show. And true to form, I probably spent just as much time watching gyrating with his guitar as I did observing the lights. Though one of our number seemed to be even more enthralled with the lights and sound than the concert. It was his idea to go in the first place. The odd thing was the crowd...The three of us who went were in the upper age bracket by about 8 years. As always, people watching was a high point.

Country Wife design meetings begin on Friday, yet I still have three weeks of my internship and a dance piece to build. The designs for Country Wife need to be done before our director heads abroad in Decmeber, which gives me a month to clean up the renderings and purchase everything before we start building the show in the shop. And two weeks into the second semester, my work will be completely done and I will havce no clue what to do with myself until the end of the year. Maybe I should pick up some paying work.

Paying work is over rated. I think you should dedicate some time to catching up on movies you want to see but haven't seen yet.

As an old man with lots of experiance I say use the free time to renew your self and enjoy. The many years of work ahead will pay enough but eat up your "you time"
