Synchronized Eye Shutting
Well, this weekend went well. On Friday Ultimate Day had their last show. We were the second to last band to go on so we had to wait until 11:30. By that time in Dallas all of the clubs are full, so even though we brought 4 people we had about 100 people listening to us. It was a big stage in a big club. They even synchronised the lights to our music. It was really cool. We had no noticeable mistakes and the audience was really into it. We even had a mosh pit form for one song. That's when you know they like you - if they're willing to slam their bodies together while gyrating to your tunes. I was on fire guitar wise and for my solos I did the whole close your eyes and look up at the lights routine. I have it on tape and I'll probably put in on DVD. Saturday was busy as well. I had a professional carpet cleaner come in and do my whole house. He was supposed to come in at 9 and didn't show till 11. My carpets look like new again. Now if I can just get all the black smudges off of my walls. Saturday afternoon I got my haircut, my car cleaned, helped a girl from Sunday school with her computer and went to a pool party that night. It looks like I am going to have to take my car into the shop as the damaged taillight faceplate fell off at the car wash. The pool party was fun. I actually did swim and get in the hot tub. I didn't get to bed until 2. On Sunday I did the Church, Sunday school, lunch at California Pizza kitchen, feed the homeless, and jam with some friends. I was actually put in charge of feeding the homeless this time. So everyone kept on asking what we should do. It was weird. I had to make decisions quickly because we like to keep things moving. I was like,"You do cookies, you do water, someone needs to do chips and I need help getting the coolers out of my car. Now, let us pray." At the end we had to do a food safety course thing because the city of Dallas is making it mandatory come September 1st that we all use food safety rules. Yeah, the homeless don't get sick from digging in the garbage for food, they get sick from our bologna and cheese sandwiches. The word around town is all these new rules are there so things get so bad for the homeless and the feeders that the city can get more money from the state or federal government. Since they are going to more than likely shut down the resource center come December they assume the homeless people are going to just disappear. The problem is that they have no where to go and most are mentally disabled. Anyway, I rented Constantine online at cinemanow.com that night and watched it till 1:30. It was OK. I did like the effects. Keanu Reeves needs to really take accent lessons. I think all of the roles he's been in has really messed his accent up. He always sounds like a surfer dude, even as a demon smoting smoker.

Our weekend was kind of busy, too. I picked up Jess from the airport at 7:45. We got home shortly after 8:00. We parents were there and had dinner ready, thankfully. Saturday, Mom and Dad took Elaina over to Stacie's. Jess had school for most of the day, so I spent most of the morning working in the yard. It got very hot, very soon, so I'm glad it was all done by 1:00. That evening, Jess and I rented Constantine and had dinner at this little Italian place around the corner. It's as good as your Italian Villa. After dinner, we watched our movie and blew up balloons, for Elaina's birthday party the next day. Sunday, my side of the family, and Jess's side came over. We had BBQ for lunch and then cake for Elaina's 2nd birthday. There were balloons everywhere. Last night, I just watched TV.
