Thanks, Mom! HNT

August was a killer month for me. No question about that. Writing music for two different bands with different styles, during every free moment that I had (which, unfortunately means doing most of it late at night--that's when the creativity hits). Taking a 4-day trip to NY (which was really a saving grace, even though it put me a little behind). Rehearsals, gigs, a class reunion. Staff meetings for the symphony. And this summer's free concert. I know...wah, wah, wah...

As mentioned in my prior post, this past weekend's gig resulted in my getting to bed at 5 AM. I was SO looking forward to sleeping until noon, at least. Mom had other ideas and called me at 9. This is an incredibly good reenactment of that particular moment, including the really bright sunlight...


Sorry, I've got no Mystery Guest for this week. And technically, no one lined up for the near future. If you're interested in being the MG, email me, OK? Even if you've been the MG before!
Got some returning HNTers over at "...the Other HNT" this week. Good to see some of them back! (or front, as the case may be...) Of course, it's NSFW!
Be sure to stop off over at the OsShirt site. New adventure over there that you probably want to see! And it's the one that sort of kicks off the really fun summer that it had!
Is a bird in the hand really worth two in the bush?
"Dirty Harry" marathon all week on AMC! Woohoo!
Have I missed anything?

  5. Ok being woken up after 4 hours of sleep...I was going to say that sucks. But then it occurred to me that that is my average amount of nightly sleep. Hahaha....

    Still. Feel badly for you.

  7. I know when you were a kid your mom woke you up early for things like school, but at your advanced age, you'd think she would have stopped waking you up early by now.

    I'm up with another pool party HNT.
