I’m sorry that Journal upDates have been few and far between. I’m getting increasingly frustrated with my laptop, and slowly it’s affecting my willingness to actually use the damned thing. I’m working at Rowan’s place right now, Loving the cool basement ambience, but knowing that I’m actually bending to the environmental needs of this damned machine and spending my time shivering, with the laptop mounted up at a bizarre wrist-aching angle to get anything done. It’s cut off four times today, abruptly eradicating my work in an emergency processor-saving heat-dumping move.

Almost Recess followed us at the Herndon Festival – a four piece a capella group. They were AWESOME, and as much attention as we got after our set, I’m still really, really glad we went BEFORE them.

Very frustrated. It screws my attention span, too – I’m sitting on a rolly chair that carries me from the computer to my guitar and back again, and once my workflow has been interrupted, it’s like I just can’t focus anymore. Very frustrating. Listening to Chris Whitley and just trying to push away this looming feeling of pressure. There’s not that much going on – there’s nothing really bearing down on me (except for the Summer Solstice website – the one I was supposed to have done a couple of months ago, the one for the festival next weekend, the one who’s details have only gotten to me last night!), but I just feel crushed.

Anxiety, perhaps?

I think I just need to run around and flirt. That always makes me feel better.
