By Christopher Boyd -
Not to whine, but this has been a crazy week. Partly because it's homecoming week where I work, and partly because I have a 30 minute commute where I used to have a 2 minute drive, and partly because... well, things are nuts.
Suffice to say: I left my house at 6:15 yesterday morning, and arrived back at 10:45 at night. Today it was 6:15 and 6:15... hopefully tomorrow will be less than a 12-hour day!
In any case- thanks to bjvcampbell for covering the walk for me yesterday- he's a good dude.
The music for today? The vocal track to a great song, and yet while the singing is phenomenal... there are other things going on too. Like slide whistles.
