everything seemed to go the way I wanted it to

 

     FRIDAY 8/12/22 12:56AM--just got home from the Bippy's Pub open mic...Amazingly, I had NO TROUBLE getting there. There's a "Blink or you'll miss it" entrance that I'd never really noticed before. And I figured out how to get to Eastbound route 40 from the Bippy's parking lot. In addition, I DIDN'T miss the entrance to Route 29 South.
       As for my performance, I got quite a few compliments. Whether the complimenters meant them or not, I dunno, but I'm gonna enjoy the attention anyway. *I* would give myself an 8 on a scale of 10. I'm already looking forward two weeks to the next one.
        But now it's time to turn my attention to Saturday's gig. I think Elle and or Tom want me to bring ALL my stuff over to Elle's in order to save time. But that means I'll have to adjust the Gizmo without knowing what it will sound like. Not crazy about that idea.
10:29AM--It's still kinda early but it's been a good day so far. I DON'T have to leave any more stuff with Elle or Tom, I'll just bring it with me to the gig. One less thing. So now I can think about going out to see the last public appearance by 49 Cent Dress, at the Rockville Elks Lodge. Five dollars is a small price to pay I suppose...
12:18PM--it's not so early anymore, but it's still a good day. Hope I didn't just jinx it. I don't know for sure, but Dianne thinks they'll be done today. That would be just fine with me. I might not need a nap, but I'd like to  attempt it anyway. I think we're gonna leave the house around Six-thirty or so.

Musical homework

            THURSDAY 8/4/22 6:19PM-- started doing my band "homework"... Hoping to be ready by Sunday's practice. Made a legible copy (by hand and then laptop) of the songs and their corresponding NOTES. It didn't take too long, but I'm glad I'm finished. 10:22PM-just took the Trazodone...gonna give it until 11PM and then ready or not I'M going to bed. I don't know why, but I'm almost happy the cleaners won't be back for two weeks. This happens every time they come to clean. Tomorrow is Muzzy's play date. I should be back home by eight thirty, after I go to Safeway and get bologna.       FRIDAY 8/5/22 8:46AM--Dianne is going to the Germantown flea market by herself. She's OK with that. I've got a bunch of songs to listen to, about 14 of them. 12:10PM--I sorta forgot there will be other musical acts at next week's gig besides us...the most well known and probably the tightest will be the Marsh Brothers. Luckily we play first. 5...

Tuesday's just as bad

            TUESDAY 5/17/22 11:16AM-- someone is coming here to give me some sort of check-up. I don't think they represent UHC, but I might be wrong about that. Whoever it is, they're supposed to be here between Noon and 4PM. The sooner they get here, the sooner they'll be gone.  11:45AM--I'm nervous about the upcoming exam. As if I didn't already have enough to worry about, right? I've got bills I think need to be paid; I wanna be alone when I do it, and unless Dianne goes upstairs to work, I won't be. 1:41PM--whoever's coming to examine me should be here shortly...how long will the exam take? I have no idea, but I hope to be trying for a nap before three o'clock. 2:56PM--the exam is over, the young woman just left...I guess I'm in worse shape than I thought. I MIGHT have a mini pizza for dinner. 3:35PM--or not...the last thing I wanna do is ask Dianne to help me cook anything ...so tonight I'll have the Fettucine Alfredo, THAT I know how ...

dumber as ya get older

        MONDAY 5/23/22 8:47AM-It took me awhile, but I (alone) checked my blood sugar. it was 116. I was ok once I found the instruction booklet. I made a really good looking omelet. Today is the last day it's safe to use the eggs.         Dianne is at her doctor's appointment, I think. I'm working on the dishes,  after which...well, I dunno what I'll be doing. IF I can find the energy, I'll go to Hank's--IF I get the chance to warm up, more than a little that is. 5:10PM--the strings on Butterscotch absolutely need to be changed...well, maybe next week I'll bring it to Hank's. I'm still planning on going, but I'm not taking anything but some guitar picks. SueEl still isn't going tonight as far as I know. There might be a Fender amp and Tele already there--I can use that stuff if I get the chance to play. 7:26PM-the amp is here, the Tele is not-as far as I can see. 7:42PM-I guess I’ll be a spectator…such is Life. Nobody’s fault but mine,...
