Just got back from another 'Band Open Mic'. We played three songs and went over well. Stayed there for four hours watching all the other bands. Had a great time. Now it's 0306 and I still don't feel like going to bed.

Sitting on edge a little, keeping an eye out on eBay of an item I have been looking desperately for over a year now.

Another guy from the aviation forum is after some of the package I am after but not the same part and has been kind enough to inform me he will not bid against me, therefore raising the price higher.

One problem being there is another party interested and they have made eight of the ten bids made so far (strangely the last eight are all his so he is either bidding against himself or trying to warn off any other potential interested parties).

What to do?....I'll wait until close to the end and use my (quietly confident) superior spending power to win the auction and recoup a little of my spend by supplying the aviation forum member with what he is after.

Famous last words.

Already had a chicken and mushroom pot noodle and the beer is chilling in the fridge in preparation for the TOON match on Sky Sports tonight

Some pictures of last night's jam (just us - none of the 30+ other musicians who played), courtesy of Salt Lake Band Life on FaceBook.

^Jeeze! I never hire anyone who's writing tilts to the left
Especially long haul co-drivers http://www.writechoice.co.in/writechoice/2011/09/handwriting-slant-reveals-why-some-people-always-appear-cold-emotionless/ Of course I'm always very careful to make mine tilt to right!

Sad story. My next door neighbor, Tom owns a duplex where he and his wife live. The wife's sister lives in the other half with her husband. About a month ago we found out that Tom's wife has terminal stomach cancer. She's been in the hospital for a while. Last week her sister suffered a heart attack and died. Today, Tom told us that his wife has passed. Man I really don't know what to say. Very sad.

Cursing like a drunken sailor after having a morning/afternoon's worth of plotting data gone after a crash.
