I can’t believe I never published this!!!

I wrote this post last year – before I told anyone we were pregnant with Abby, at a gig that was kinda killing my soul just a little. Anyway, I had a lot of fun with it, and I hope you like it too:

I’m at a gig right now. I’m writing instead of focusing on the job. I’m still doing great, don’t worry. Folks are talking, dancing and in general enjoying themselves. I do my people watching at gigs that I don’t have to think too hard about. Here’s some things I’m musing about as these folks go about their celebration:

I don’t care what you saw on television. When you’re confronted with a microphone in public, don’t tap the damn thing. That just makes you look dumb. Scratch the screen if you really don’t know if it’s on or not. Tends to annoy people a lot less.

When that microphone starts to feed back, don’t cover it. That makes it worse.

Pregnant women throwing up is hilarious.

That orange that’s not an orange, but rather a chocolate thing, and you smash it and it’s a buncha pieces? Those are dumb.

Couples that keep their finances seperate freak me out. Makes no sense. Either you’re supporting each other as a unit, or you’re just dating. Kinda.

Jimmy Buffet is kinda boring. I like Brian Adams though. How are those 2 ideas related? Bite me.

I want a CR-V.

I wish the soundcheck feature on iTunes was better.

That’s all I got. I think I’ll sing a few songs now – – – hold on…

Professional people fake hula dancing pleases me. Make a video and post it as a response below!

That is all. Imma go sing now. Do your job well, you guys.
