This week I hope to drag myself out of the house for a show or two. I had a super busy week, or so it seemed. I did nap a lot and I spent a lot of it being sore after some really good workouts. I feel like I was productive but I might have undone all that work with the amount of food I ate on Sunday. It was all worth it though. Hopefully I can shake this lethargy and get out to see some bands this week. Hopefully you make it out too!

Here’s what we have for the week…

I never thought I’d be someone who missed the rain, but after this wind we’ve had the past few days, I think I would rather have the rain again. At least the wind is helping things dry out, so I really shouldn’t complain. However, I have had a scratchy throat off and on so I’m not sure if I’m getting sick, have allergies, or am just dried out from the weather. The joys!

It’s a weird week for shows this week. This is SD at it’s best where it’s all on one day(s) and nada on others. Sigh.

I made it out to one night of the Mrs. Henry Mothership Extravaganza at Pour House. However, their playing power far outlasted my stamina to be out. I have no idea what time they finished playing, but I’m sure it was long after I left. It was a lovely evening though and I wish I could have enjoyed more but despite their high energy show, I was drifting off. I guess that’s what happens after two workouts in a day and doing barn things that morning. Ah well.

This week we have a fresh batch of shows, so let’s see what’s going on…

I’m currently hoping that I haven’t potentially caught that awful cold thing that’s going around. I did inventory at work for 2 days where there were 3 sick people, I was up way earlier than normal, and I was never really warm. Thankfully, I don’t feel too bad, just tired mainly.  I’m hoping to make it out this weekend to see Mrs. Henry tear down Pourhouse though.

Happy New Year!! I didn’t watch the ball drop or anything but I did watch three movies, cuddle with my dog, and eat a variety of foods from bread and cheese to mini quiches and mini cheesecake. It was a wonderfully chill evening though and one I would happily repeat. It was definitely a struggle to stay awake till midnight though. I guess that’s what happens when you get older. Haha.

I hope everyone had a lovely holiday. I spent mine eating Chinese food with family and watching White Collar on DVD. I also got some socks and long underwear, which was much needed and appreciated.

I’m surprised by how much we have this week since it’s right after Christmas  but you have quite a few options this week. Also, there’s a bunch of NYE parties going on. I’m personally not doing anything, but if I was, I would be at The Lafayette for their big show. Whatever you choose to do, please be safe!

I managed to make it out to three shows this week (!!!) plus another trip to Disneyland! Whew. I have indeed been busy but I’m hoping that might slow down soon. And judging by the calendar this week, we are in a bit of a lull. I know NYE is just around the corner but I have no plans myself, except to eat and sleep. I’m such a party animal, I know.

I hope everyone has a happy holiday, no matter what you celebrate. I hope you all eats lots of yummy food and get some quality time with family too! Happy Holidays!
