I babysat on Thursday. The kids are nice, but because they're so young (3 and 19 months), they're sort of uncontrollable. The thre year old is easy...I can stick her in the baby swing and she's happy once I push her a bit. My 19 month old is a different story...he wanders. And he's clumsy. The two DO NOT mix. He ended up tripping on twigs to many times to count. And he bumped his head on the playstructure. It's a good thing he's easy to calm down, all you have to do is ask him to find a truck (make sure he doesn't try to catch it). He's a trooper. The three year old loves to throw sand at me. I don't know why. She just does. I try to stop her from throwing it, but being 3, she isn't very good at retaining information. My shoes are now miniature sandbox's, and my eye's make scratchy noises when I blink. When I sneeze it's like gooey sandpaper is running out of my nostrils. And I have sand in my hair. anyone with long hair knows that sandy hair sucks.

Yesterday was better. I had some friends over, then we went to my friends house and chilled. Today we might go miniputting.

Earlier today, I mowed some lawns around my neighborhood for some pocket money. I spent 2 hours mowing 2 lawns(front and back), and earned a total of $16 dollars. I'm tired.

****, seems like a lot of people just had sucky weeks. :(

My week was uneventful/bad. Uneventful because I had no one to play music with, therefore I sat at home and played bass alone all week. Bad because I have yet to hear from a girl I like(it's been 4 weeks, either she's really busy or it's time to say "To hell with it" and wait until college to bother with girls again) and my best friend keeps roughing himself up mentally, just a lot of bad stuff has happened to him the last couple of weeks. :(

So let's brighten the mood up. *turns on a light*

<_< *is shot*

*hugs for all who had a bad week*

My week wasn't too bad. On monday I was supposed to take a tips training class so I can serve alcohol for concerts at the amphitheater in the area. No one told us it got cancelled three weeks earlier, oh well.

Tuesday, I had to do contingency training. It wasn't bad except for the fact that it was hot as hell. First time I got to erect a hardback shelter though.

Wednesday, got told I had to have a job done by Friday so that our painters could come in Monday and paint the walls. I was supposed to have help, but the guy they gave me is a lazy *** who outranks me. Needless to say I was doing everything.

Thursday, went in to try and finish these walls and got told I have to attend a radio training class. So another day down the drain. Was told that my job was taken care of though. So one less thing to worry about.

Friday, took a much needed day off, kind of. I still had to wake up early to take one of my housemates to work and then to take his driving test. Which he failed by two points. We're still giving him grief about that.

Now I'm cleaning my room just like LR.

my weeks are golden, this weekend was my day off, i spent the week completing my new band, and chatting with my future classmates at UoC. great week :D

Kandyman 07-25-2004 02:40 PM

Oh yeah, another good thing. Someone finally responded to my ad in the classified section. I may have me a band soon. And the good thing is that they want melodic basslines.


Edit: I own page two, sweet. :cool:

JBJ 07-25-2004 02:42 PM

finished defretting the bass and i really like the way it sounds. :cool:

lpu2007 07-25-2004 02:55 PM

Man I did almost nothing this week. On Tuesday I had sectionals for the Marching Band (I'm in the low brass section). On Friday I went to see Catwoman with my friend the only think that makes that movie worth seeing is Hallie Berry in the leather outfit. :naughty: Those are basically the two things I did this week. I hope next week is less boring than this one was.

mr_coffeekiller 07-25-2004 03:05 PM

Lightraven... I'm starting to resent the fact that all you do now is make these threads. This is a bass forum and you're the authoritive figure. What do you say in the rules about spam? This [i]is[/i] spam nomatter how you view it. Yes, I did post in the first one but the constant threads "woo hoo, come on in" as if it's some kind of blessing are wearing a little thin.

It wouldn't be so bad if there was proper contribution from you. a lesson or 2 maybe? Especially about what's involved in music a college... a lot of people would find that helpful and interesting.

And 1 more thing. What happened to the Bass CD? was nice to leave us (me) hanging on that one :rolleyes:

And just so this isn't off topic :rolleyes: I got my nose burst today when I was training today. After that, my friend worked me till I spewed. Twas quite the experience

jazzfunkboy 07-25-2004 03:20 PM

i finished painting my house this week, so im getting paid.

if i order a badass 2 bridge im going to have to wait for it to arrive :upset:
then i have to put it on
then i have to go to a music store and get the frets shaved, leveled, crowned.
then i have to buy strings.

after that i should have a kickass bass. :thumb:

if i dont im giving it up.

Sade 07-25-2004 03:40 PM

I agree with Coffee....


I worked today, cooking for people, like-500?


**** patrons and their ****edness

Anyone in here ever come home from work, feel like bassing, and can't-cause you're to tired and your hands are cracked and bleeding from feeding the masses for low pay? :-(

jazzfunkboy 07-25-2004 04:51 PM

i just ordered me badass 2! YAY!

*listens to "used to be a cha-cha"*

It would be nice if she did make a couple other threads other than these, but I like being able to just talk to everyone here about other things. I don't like the pit because frankly, they annoy me. Everyone in there thinks that they are the most clever people ever to use a computer.

Agreed, seems reasonable.

I like this thread particularly because it gives me, a new user, an opprotunity to get to know the people here and feel more comfortable in talking.

RaVen_Bassist 07-25-2004 05:46 PM

I'll trade you, your life for mine.




But I get to keep the money.

Deal?

ScorpSath 07-25-2004 05:54 PM

ck, lr is making this a good thread for people to discuss sort of like a pit for the bass forum I think it's a great idea. As for the cd check the first casual thread she explained to me why it was cancelled.

Serus 07-25-2004 05:57 PM

I played my first show with my new band. Went over pretty well except for my D string breaking. Why do they only break during shows?

Wintermute 07-25-2004 05:57 PM

A bit of bassing, a bit of being modded, then modding, and a bit of time with my girlfriend. Much time with friends, much time working.

Been pretty busy, now that I come to think about it.

And congratulations, RaVen Bassist!
