It’s SXSW time! I will be on a plane tomorrow morning and will be in Austin by the evening. I’m a little sad to not be doing the cross country drive but it will be a nice change of pace.

It’s almost noon on Monday and I’m still in bed. Not for much longer though. I officially go back to tomorrow because apparently I like to torture myself. I just had what you might call a ‘last hurrah’ at Disneyland yesterday after being a part of A Trolley Show featuring one of our favorite bands Youngblood Hawke. I guess my point is to please excuse this ramble because my brain still isn’t fully functional.
