Happy New Year.

I wish. Alas, this cold, flu, plague – whatevertheHELL is ravaging my will to Live right now has truly just beaten me down. It struck both Kristen and I Sunday morning and it’s now Tuesday and I’m congested and achy and in danger of becoming downright WHINY!

Actually, I’m kind of surprised and a little heartened as I write that out. I feel like I’ve been sick for a week, but I think that’s mostly because my sleep pattern is really screwed up. I’ve been sleeping 3 hours or so, up for 4 or so… and so until I actually looked at the calendar and did the math I’d sort of been under the impression that I’d been sick for about a week or so.

Thank you math.

Still.

I must be strong.

I must stop dripping.

I haven’t had the will to get much done for the past several days which is really quite frustrating. Had a bunch of web-oriented plans to throw into action, a LOT of booking stuff to get done – and I just haven’t been able to focus on ANY of it. My mouth tastes of zinc lozenges and Ricola lozenges and Dayquil lozenges and ramen noodles, none of which are things I want to taste EVER again, all of which are things that I’ll probably still be subsisting off of tomorrow.

Kristen’s weathering it all with a good deal more grace than I. I’m supposed to get out and play tomorrow. I’ve got my doubts that that’s going to be happening.

Yeah. Music seems to be right out the door. Just mucus for me. And Stranger Things and snot.

At Gypsy Sally’s we played to a fun crowd and it was absolutely a wonderful way to end the year. Just Heather and I, doing what we do. After we played the next artist was this woman (whose name will totally come back to me any second now!) with a BIG blues voice.
Getting some cat time in.
Don’t judge. We’re sick as fuck and THIS is what we’re doing for New Year’s Eve.
