Last week, I talked about how the four-day work week felt so long. Sad to say, this week’s 5-day week didn’t feel any better. I am off next week, so I’ve got that going for me.

The new song I mentioned last week is starting to come together in this week’s session. We managed to all play in the same key and got through most of it. The drummer is really the standout here, perfect time, they never miss. For the rest of us, it’s just a matter of playing it a few times together. I think it has the potential to be one of our better songs.
