[livejournal.com profile] nepenthe01, [livejournal.com profile] canongrrl and I visited [livejournal.com profile] mrzero and [livejournal.com profile] atalanta on Saturday night. You can't go wrong with that crowd, but even with such exceptional bandmates, I've failed to convert to Rock Bandism. I'll admit that mauling vocal tracks was more satisfying than faux guitar. Even so, all through my Thom Yorke belting and Beastie Boys screaming, my mind's eye saw [livejournal.com profile] sirendipity sternly shaking her head, so I felt a little guilty.

Work continues to be uncommonly good. Follow-up experiments keep supporting our proposed process changes, and we're working with very pleasant folks in other companies to implement our packaging and shipping ideas. It's not all gravy, though: I wish I could invent something with which to squeeze money out of venture capitalists faster.

After learning that the Olds sat largely untouched for two weeks, I gave my mechanic an April 14th drop-dead date. I've lined up another shop to take over, should this gentleman fail to finish the job.

Most of my peers love it, but I've added Rock Band and Guitar Hero to the list of things I don't get. It's on there after Buffy the Vampire Slayer and World of Warcraft.

I'm eagerly anticipating Soo Bahk Do class, by the way. :D
I have to look into scheduling.

to me, its like karaoke, which i am all about. though i can't deal with guitar hero either, but something about the cooperative element and the singing and the drums makes it a little more fun to me.

buffy - yes
warcraft - hell no!

eagerly anticipating you being in the soo bahk do class! call me any time and we can figure out a plan, or check the website - www.bcsbd.com/class-schedule. :)

aw. i was going to suggest Guitar Hero instead of Rock Band. i find Rock Band boring, but have played no less than four hours a day of Guitar Hero since it came into my house. mmm, addiction.

I don't enjoy Rock Band or Guitar Hero either (combo of being tone deaf and having RSI makes both unfun for me to play).

I say you show up for the car with a sledgehammer in hand. That guy is shady!
