Commercials and Coffee

I don't think I ever said anything about the do-gooder.

Did I?

Yes, I did.
Isaac Joseph.
He is indeed a ray of sunshine I have decided.
He graced my life again yesterday along with some friends of his from church, Chad and T--something. I forgot.
Anyway, he comes in with these two older guys and a camera, and asks me if it would be ok if they shot a commercial for the do-gooding the church is sponsoring.
I'll admit, I have a weakness for this kid, so I said sure. So we re-inacted the do-gooding EXCEPT it wasn't isaac doing the gooding, it was his friend T-something, dressed up as a superhero.
They were there for about 2 hours, I got to be in it! (fun!)
At the end Isaac came back to the drive thru and gave me a mix cd, which is incredibly emo, but it's so good.
Really, its the best mix I've gotten in an incredibly long time. I know that it wasn't originally intended for me, but I love it because I can tell he put alot of himself into it, for whomever it was intended for. Every song was carefully thought through, the transitions are strong, its high quality stuff. He was trying to tell someone something, whoever it was originally intended for.

Spring break should be great. I intend to get this ripple records thing off of the ground.
Today I intend to
-contact a few more musicians to see if they are interested
-compose the first draft of the waiver
-select some of the songs that we are going to use.

By the end of the week I want to have the website started, a myspace page, enough artists for the first cd, and a pretty good idea of how we are going to get them published. (Artwork).
Also, get a hold of Alex to see about getting a kick-off show.
It should be fantastic.

I painted last night with Puckett. I love the painting. I can't decide who I'm going to give it to.
Part of me thinks it's going to be Emily's.
Part of me wants to give it to my mom.
Part of me wants to keep it.
We'll see.
Its a painting of a spring-time forest with the sun filtering through the trees.
My all-time favorite simple pleasure, of which there are many.
TOP FIVE:
1. sun filtering through the leaves
2. the cool feeling of the air on your back after a good warm shower
3. the perfect morning coffee
4. the first breath of spring
5. the feeling of accomplishment you get when you finish something you worked incredibly hard on.


speaking of which, I'm going to get to work.
