Pep Band Blues

I got to play with the high school pep band yesterday. It was a blast! However, we were pretty pitiful, because half the band were teachers and most of the students didn't even show up. :( But on the bright side, I got to play my groovy "new" saxaphone that my papa bought for my birthday. I had a lot of solos due to the lack of instrumentation, and I had only two days of practice. It was definitely interesting. And my E flat was a little out of tune. Enough so that the band instructor pointed it out. (I'm getting to the bright side.) I felt like I was back in high school again. I didn't realize how much I missed being a band nerd.

Watching the Tree Fall

So I spent the weekend with one of my good friends. It was a very entertaining weekend. The first evening we watched some rather interesting films, one of which we should have turned off because it was so...yeah, but we didn't and wasted our time for it. Earlier in the evening was the beginning of my friend Laura's "next friend" bit. It started with us not being able to make decisions about where to eat. So she procedes to say to me and another friend "My next friend will make decisions" since none of us really cares what we do as long as we do something.
My next friend will not refer to her next friend. ;)
