AAAAAAAnd we're back.
24 hours ago I was worried about nothing more than my music.
200 miles, 3 hours, 1 Vitamin Water, 1 Monster, a delicious chicken caesar wrap and some York Peppermint Patties later I am at home watching the new Brittany Snow flick worrying about how to write a paper on the correlation between geometric transformations and music.
The crazy a-tonal music I'm going to need to listen to is serving as the rude alarm clock to wake me up from the dream I've been living for the last three days.

Sun Valley
Took the trip up to Sun Valley today- we made it just in time to register and and change clothes and have 30 seconds to hang out before we played our first set with Jason Wanner.
It's warm, sunny, and very positive up here. We packed the room out for our first performance which will always make me feel good. The people come to listen, and that is very refreshing. Its also kind of stressful, because it means I can't be un-original anymore. Brianne and I are continually looking for things to shake it up. But the cool part about it is we walk away from this weekend with ideas and motivation for another years worth of lounge gigs and christmas parties and weddings.
Its nice to get out of Boise for a bit and play in a different atmosphere- as a working musician I fear monotony more than anything. This weekend also is serving as a slight vacation for my mind. I for sure needed to re- focus on some things. This is what I needed:

Some Saving Graces
Im pretty sure I'm not the only one that got in a bit of a downer-rutt last week. Maybe is was the weather, maybe it was the moon cycle, maybe is was David Blaine. I don't know. But i am much better now, and these are some things that got me through.
1. Blue Sky Bagels. Every morning an everything bagel toasted with the berry cream cheese
2. Chai Tea. I was slightly disappointed to learn I actually like Starbucks' chai....
3. Jon McLuaghlin's new album, OK Now. Just awesome. Nothin' else to it
