Cookeville Hotel Againz

I'm back in the Hotel at Cookeville for I don't know how long. I thought I would be for sure coming back tomorrow, but I don't know if that will be the case. I didn't find out until I got here that I might have wanted to pack more than just two days worth of stuff. Ah, but I also don't have my computer with me, or my guitar, so I'm having to use the business center computer. Lame. But anyways I've spent most of the night in the hotel twiddling my thumbs. We got back at around seven and I've just been here watching TV. I actually ordered a movie from my room. It was the new Harry Potter movie... but the sound didn't work, so I called in and had my money refunded. I guess I could have watched it in closed caption... but that's reading. That defeats the purpose of watching the movie instead of reading the book which is my entire plan.

So then I got a little hungry after watching Scrubbs for a while. I just walked over to the Burger King next door and got a milk shake. I'm working on that right now while I type to you. I think after this I might go up to my room and watch the Rocky marathon that's on Spike TV. Fun for dayz.

Next week I might get some time off to go back to NC. I know for sure I'm going to a wedding next weekend. Matt's sister Ginger is getting married and I'm DJ'ing. But I'd like just one extra day off of work to swing by home for at least a day. I've been thinking about taking my motorcycle. The weather is perfect and I feel really comfortable on the highway now. I've talked with several bikers about it and most of them feel that highways are more safe because it's all one direction and you've got shoulders to maneuver in if something unexpected happened. I like the sound of that. I would get my bike inspected before I drive though, and I would have to be ready to stop all of the time because I only get about 90 miles out of a tank. But I would also need to make sure I could pack everything in a backpack. I don't like the idea of saddle bags.

I've been thinking a lot lately about where the direction of my life is headed, both the good and the bad. I feel a lot different these days. I've changed a lot in just a few short months and I'm trying to figure out what parts are good and what parts are negative, because there is always a little bit of both.

Tomorrow I'm going to bust tale so I can get home tomorrow night. I've got a lot of work to get through, but it's not very strenuous. It's just tedious. I might not take lunch again like I did today. I got more done that way. Music has also been helping. Lindsay is letting me borrow her old iPod and so I've hooked that up to my mixing headphones and jacked up the volume to where it sounds like I have little speakers in the room (I guess that's technically what they are anyways). But music motivates me to work faster and more fluidly, but it's hard to get the kind of music I like and I can't use headphones because I think that's rude. If I'm working alone, I'll use them, but otherwise, I like to be able to hear what all is going on around me.

I'm rambling now which is an indicator that I should go watch Rocky.

Peace and love
