Last summer my absolutely favorite band came to town to play at Red Rocks. I anxiously wet myself (gently) for the chance to buy tickets. I was deeply saddened that I could not attend because I had a dress rehearsal that night. It got me thinking about all the good things in life I've missed because of playing music. I started a mental list:
1. "Spryo the Dragon" video games (love, love, love them!). I have TWO games in my front room that I haven't even opened yet. Plus I think there are several newer ones out now. If I played less music, I could play more video games.
2. Cookies. I bake them, but it's overly difficult while practicing.
3. Swimming. I sink like a stone, have a shockingly bad doggie paddle, and yet managed to get certified as a scuba diver. Maybe someday I'll deserve it.
4. Other things like parties, like going to bed early, like living a life not centered on caffeine in the morning, like being able to dance like a real person and onward.
My band is coming back to Red Rocks this summer (unfortunately with a BIG BIG name band, so tickets might be difficult) and I am canceling all conflicts as of now. Speaking of conflicts, the board meeting is starting.....
