Anti-boredom serum.

You know what picks me up?
Anti-gravity.

But besides that, i enjoy a long walk talking about life, and of course the sporadic jam session with friends! Unfortunately, i was WAY too in the zone to record, but today we went to downtown sacramento, in the tunnel between the K street plaza and Old Sacramento, and jammed like no other. And by no other, i mean i had my guitar and BJ had his uke, and Mark had his Pink DS. Oh yeah, work it.

Meanwhile, while proceeding to entertain the passersby with tunes aplenty, someone actually decided they were authentically diggin' us. This guy walks up, and i'm doing some acoustic guitar bongo-action and BJ was strumming out a melody to a song that i can't quite recall at this moment. Then the guy randomly pulls out his wallet and i immediately perk up and gave him a grin. He pulls out a 5 dollar bill and puts it into my hat that i laid on the ground for such an occasion as this, and he then begins to freestyle to our melodic rhythmic procession. We give him props and many thanks as he walks away. Funny how we actually decided to chill there without expecting any kind of change to be thrown at us, and, lo and behold, some stranger decides that we're worthy of a substantial amount of payment. That really made my day. Funny how things work out like that. I finally decide to take a positive outlook on life, and it beings to pay me back.

Literally.
I guess an optimistic view on anything is room for opportunity to knock. And knock it did.
And when i got home i had money. And by money, i mean my last paycheck which i will devote to finally getting my Macbook back and working. I hate using this disappointing "try all you like, but i won't start up for another twenty minutes" windows laptop. But alas, the time has come to live life anew. And by new, i mean use my old macbook and hope that it still runs infinitely better than this piece of doody butter.
And i'm going to UCDavis tomorrow for inifinite Street Fighter 4 and Bowling. WHAT!

This is Robot.M signing out.
