4th could happen fast enough

maybe i'm just getting old but i'm having a hard time dealing with the fireworks going off in my neighborhood for the past few weeks at 10pm - 1am. i can't wait for the city fireworks displays and then for this holiday to pass.
today's been a very chill day. DC came and picked me up for a late breakfast and brought me by his place to listen to some of the new demos he and his band the effort are working on right now. in case you're beginning to get confused... yes, DC plays in three different bands so to clarify, here's where you can keep informed:
256 - www.twofivesixmusic.com (plays guitar and backing vocals)
the effort - www.theeffortrocks.com (plays guitar and lead vocals)
the estradas - www.myspace.com/theestradas (plays drums)
i know it can sometimes be a challenge to keep up with DC so i wanted to make sure you're all clear on his work.
anyway, i listened to the two latest song ideas for the effort and they were both really good. i see a lot of potential and look forward to seeing what will come of them.
before DC brought me home he was kind enough to take me by circuit city so i could make use of a gift card i received for my birthday. i finally picked up the newest snow patrol record. they didn't have the other record i was looking for but if you're able to find it, i was searching for the eels' live record where they play with a full string section. i'm a sucker when it comes to adding symphonic sounds to pop and rock music.
the rest of the day has been spent doing a whole lot of nothing. besides DC's call earlier the phone has rang twice, both times they had the wrong number.

i've been having a more difficult time lately with passing time and feeling good about how it was spent. it's just not easy for me to accept that i need to heal and that prevents me from being productive around the house, all for the better because i should be resting. i guess it's similar to asking a sprinter to walk, or something like that.

i did get to see BJ earlier and that continues to be the light in my day. he was in a much better mood today and he was even a little clingy, which i encourage since i don't see him every day. he was up to his regular antics, my favorite of which is watching him chase the cats. i'm sure both of my felines are equally fascinated with this as well.

ok, back to some snow patrol so i can get a better sense of how i feel about this record.
