The title doesn't mean anything other than I like The Smiths...

Things have been going well/better - I think my friends who read this (the ones I was on sour terms with) and I can agree we're on much better terms now after talking some stuff out.  I've also been made to realize that if I'm going to be so analytical I have to give my own words the same scrutiny & consideration I forget that I give to others', which was why I pulled my old blogs and started fresh.  I don't think I shouldn't have to answer if I said something objectionable, but I think I said some objectionable things out of absolute absentmindedness.  The motivation is to be conscious if I say something that blows up in my face so that I can't be surprised, but moreover to simply not say things that are going to blow up in my face. 

In less redundant news, I worked my first shift at Target in 5 months.  I think I was more surprised than anything how much I remembered - old passwords, keystrokes, the works.  I certainly don't want retail to be my life, but I can say I honestly missed being around a lot of the people I worked with - it's a very wacky kind of social experience, and hell, they pay me.

Lastly, the bands have been developing a ton and my friends have been great about supporting them.  I certainly don't expect or really even ask them to support the bands at shows, but they're great about it, and they should know it means a ton and I don't take them or their presence for granted.

That's about it - Under The Eve's playing what will probably be our last show ever, which is bittersweet - I think we're a great collection of people who write some really original stuff that unfortunately no one latched on too.  I don't think we'd ever have the focus to be as exceptional as we could/should have been, but I'll stay fond of what we did together.  Anyway the point was that we'll play Saturday August 13th at The Evening Star in Niagara Falls, if I see you there hit me up for a drink!

'Til next time...
