So today is the first day this week I have had a chance to relax... being that all week even though I have not had a job I have had tons of errands to run in preparation for my travels. Packing for this trip was much different than any packing I have done before. Usually it takes me approximately 10 minutes to throw everything I need into some sort of bag but as I will be gone for a couple of months for this trip I spent a good two hours or so trying to figure out what I didn't really need to bring with me. My biggest mistake was to try and pack 8 books which I managed to cut down to 4 or 5. But everything is packed and all my errands have been ... read more

Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. -Ralph Waldo Emerson Well everybody, I guess that technically today is the big day. Today is the day that I leave the protection/confines of home and head out looking for the danger/adventure of the great Out There.

Weather looks like it will be rainy, but a little bit warmer. The adventure begins...... read more

11/18/2006 8:58 AM I-65 north of Louisville. When we pulled in to the club last night we noticed the night was billed as a “Metal” night which neither of these bands are. Although, people that listen to metal seem to like us despite our lack of heavy guitar chugging and cookie monster sounding vocals. Apparently the promoter originally had a different venue that had been used by the local goth/industrial scene for quite some time but they lost their space. The show was moved to a different venue. We kept hearing from the locals that they had never actually been in this place and dressed down a bit so as not to have problems with the bars regulars. We met the opening band, set up our gear, and stood around for about 20 minutes waiting for ... read more
