Tired - - So Tired

Man what a week! The Cafe Grand Opening was a big success! The band's first gig went great. We also played Rhiannon's birthday party on Sunday. I'm so tired! UMB and I decided to stay home and relax today. I'm doing some work on the myriad of websites I am building.

Wasted day...

I believe that I have become so overwhelmed by the list of things that I have to do that my brain just shut down and wants to do nothing. I stayed home today... and did absolutely nothing... I sat on the couch and watched Law and Order reruns all day long (bless the folks at USA and TNT for that!).

I didn't even get dressed.

I didn't even crack open the new Harry Potter book that was waiting for me on the front step Saturday morning.

Something is seriously wrong.

Here's a brain dump of the things on my plate:

Tiskets and Taskets Website Redesign

Tear Records Website Redesign

Watch The Guys perpetual bullshit... it's been at least 6 weeks since I've heard from the guys about the new software. I've lost my patience with them and this whole project. Even if I were to complete it today, I've put at least 4x the amount of work into it as I quoted them. They've only paid me 25% and I have a feeling I'll never see another dime!

Close the Cafe Books for June - take note it's the 19th of July today.

Pay Cafe Bills

Payroll

Finalize plans for this weekend's Grand Opening party.

Develop Marketing plan for Bercli

Bercli Website Redesign

Learn everything I possibly can about phased array ultrasonics technology

Pin UMB down about where we want to go on vacation

Clean the house

Organize the garage

Landscaping the yard

And the list continues.. this is just the stuff keeping me awake lately. Well, that and all the personal shit that has been going on lately.

Personal shit, yes... I have a blog, but I'm not going into it here...

Anyway, instead of doing any one of the things on this list today, I watched reruns and read overheardinnewyork.com.

Now I'm going to bed just to get up and head to the cafe and start putting out the millions of little fires that come up during the average day.

:: hoping someone figures out how I can make several clones of myself to do all this shit ::

Uncommon News

Thanks to my good friend Dan, I got a blog up and working for the Cafe. Check out the Uncommon News site. Be sure to check it regularly for some updates that I may forget to put on this site! I only have so many hours in the day ya know!

My NEW Mac

So most of you know I converted to Mac a few months ago and got an iBook. Well, since I had to keep stealing it back from UMB, I decided to get another one! So I got the 15" Powerbook. Hot! Love it!

Uncommon Cafe Grand Opening!

Hey Everyone!

We're having the cafe grand opening finally -- come check it out and hear our band play from 1-4!

Please feel free to pass this on to anyone you think might be interested in coming out! It's going to be a lot of fun!

Hope you can come out and say hi!

Overheard

I'm sure you've all seen or heard about this already, but this is a really funny site. Check it out!

Floating around the lake...

Since I've hired some competent employees to work at the cafe, I've been able to take a breather... first time in a long time I've been able to just relax a bit. UMB and I took Gracie and headed up to Lake Berryessa for the afternoon. We've actually been going quite often lately. It's only about 40 minutes from home, and it's quite nice.

It's funny how the lakes here don't get as crowded as Table Rock or Taneycomo do back home. Hell, even Truman Lake is busier than the lakes I've seen around here. Guess it is because of the proximity of the ocean that splits the people out.

RetroRockIt is gigging tomorrow at the Oakland Motorcycle Club around 5 pm if anyone is interested in checking us out. Should be an interesting show. Me fronting a band playing for 500 bikers.
