And every time something fun happens, I say,"I gotta put that in my blog." And then I never do. SOOOO....my friend and fellow musician was touring through Texas a couple months back and suggested I post blogs in a similar fashion to her. And now I'm gonna do it.

It's been eventful thus far. We left Austin last Tuesday and headed to Lubbock. Driving through west Texas might not be the most exciting thing ever, but we managed to entertain ourselves by counting dead skunks for a good four hours.
