A call from an old friend

San Diego day was a good day. I got up around 8 to see if I could get off earlier than 9, which I could.. but not quite as early as 8. As I waited, I got a phone call from Nick. We hadn’t talked since before black friday, so he had a lot to fill me in on.
Afterwards, I went to Starbucks and caught up with Amanda about the radio interview, got the rest of the office season. After a bit of that, I went up and got some lunch (sushi) and called my dad.
Afterwards, I went to Sam Goody, and called Felicia while I browsed the good prices. I managed to get The Beavis and Butthead collection for free for getting the Office season two. I also got the Kings of Leon album.
As I went to the music store to get some strings, I got a phone call from my old high school friend, Jimmie Allen. He called to ask to see if I wanted to fill his opening slot on his radio tour. Unfortunately I’m on the ship so I had to decline. But as we talked, he filled me in on what’s going on in his life, and he invited me to his place in Nashville to meet some of the people he knows. He’s also a songwriter. He just released his new single on the radio which just cracked the top 200 on the radio.
After I got off the phone, went back to the ship, and did the boat drill, watched some B & BH and got ready for the show.
When I got up to the casino, it was EMPTY.. I was quite confused. But found it was because someone got really sick and the ship had to turn around and drop someone off back at San Diego. So people didn’t really start showing up until 9:30ish.
After a quiet night, I went to my room and went to sleep.

THE PHONE RINGS, and I jump up scared I over slept or something terrible happened. As I answer the phone, I hear a girl’s voice and it was Noochie. She was just calling to say goodnight. She appologised for waking me up, but it was nice of her all the same. I went back to sleep and I was out.

I woke up at 11, and decided I needed to really work on the next song order, so I got working on it, wrote and recorded it. Afterwards, I went and got dinner, then came back to my room to shower. Afterwards, I went up and played my set. Not too many people, so I did a lot of loop pedaling.
Once the gig was over, I came back to the room to watch Beavis and Butthead Do America. And then sleep.
