Ducky Does What Ducky Does

Things are VERY good.

...at least if you are in the Steel Band (or happened to be around while they were recording on Sunday/Monday)

Go read about it!

Needless to say, I'm counting the days until June 7th. Oh, and if you check the end of the article there's a mention of a U.S. tour in July and August. Looks like this summer is shaping up very nicely so far.

Now that I've got a link to this site on Facebook, a lot of people could now come here and read about me. I mean, I guess this page is on the internet so technically a lot of people could see it anyway, but now that there's a link on one of the most popular sites across college campuses everywhere in the U.S., that's a potential for a lot of visits to this page. It's really more scary than anything else, really.

Also, I guess I haven't updated since before I went to IU. It was awesome to go experience life at another college (minus classes) for a while. Thanks goes out to Preston for finding us places to sleep and countless snack foods, and thanks to Hilary for dinner and the unofficial campus tour (not to mention the compliment on her livejournal). Thanks also to Jimmy John for building not one but two restaurant for us to eat sandwiches at in the Bloomington area. Now there's only one other college I'd like to visit before the end of the year, and I'll give you a hint as to what it is:

The school is in the NCAA tournament this year...

...more specifically...

I went there last year. Yeah, that's right. If any of the Ohio people are reading this, be aware that I have not forgotten about Athens, and I hope to make it up there by the end of the year. We'll see how I manage that.

Sore throats are not exciting at all, but guess what, I have one. And I only have one Advil Cold and Sinus left, and I left my generic ibuprofen at home. I also have zero dollars right now. Speaking of which, anyone want to buy a Gameboy Advance SP? I really never use it and e-baying is such a hassle. If anyone wants one seriously e-mail me or leave a comment or send me an instant message or message me (or leave something on the wall) on the facebook or for even call me. I need payment in cash and fast.

And on that note, I'm going to just publish this. Then what? Who knows.

Tomorrow morning I leave for Bloomington with Ben for SB '05. So that's exciting.

Also exciting is the fact that I'm now on the Facebook. I'd provide a link, but I'm in Brentwood and of course using our trusty old dial-up connection so I don't want to navigate back through the facebook just to get a link to my profile. Just go search for me if you're interested.

Oh, and the Stanza is in the shop, it looks like it's probably the alternator, which is another expensive fix for the 18 year old car. Looks like its time to get a new one, but try telling that to my parents (or my pathetic bank account).

So, I think the Stanza is finally on its death bed. It managed to start when jumped, but it died as soon as I released the parking brake. When I jumped it again it nearly died just by idling, so I don't know what's up. I think its more than just a battery problem though, which isn't good, because it wouldn't be a starter problem either, so it would have to be an engine problem. And that isn't a cheap replacement.

If this is it for the Stanza, I didn't realize how much I took it for granted before now.
