Good luck and be sure to spread the doom love while you're down there!

Actually that's only in Virginia. Funny that you also get Monday off for MLK day.

I looked it up earlier today actually. Back in the 80s and 90s the state of Virginia even combined all three into Lee–Jackson–King Day, I kid you not. If there's more of a dick move out there, I can't think it off hand.

You will be missed, my friend.

Went visit my sister and brother in law today. Got to hold their baby (my nephew) for the first time, who is now 6 days old. Was pretty sweet. That boy can fart! Contest-winning farts.

Reconciled with my ex girlfriend today, we might get back together. This time I won't **** it up.

I've been playing a lot of music lately, and I wonder if there's a point where it's too much because I'll often jam and be utterly exhausted for about an hour. I was playing some hardcore saxophone with a dank drummer earlier, probably the best free jazz I've done so far. But that does take a physical toll when you put your entire body into your music, I guess.

Hah, yeah, I know. I grew up in Virginia in the years of Lee-Jackson-King Day. It may be that I was in the DC burbs but everybody in my area still just called it Martin Luther King Day. Even in school.

In fact, I was an adult before I even really knew about the Lee-Jackson holiday. So the split-up of the two days allowed Virginians to revere the Confederate leaders more, and have a 4-day weekend. Everybody wins.

I was actually bummed out today because my little sister and I realized we'd missed the new episode of Victorious.

This is what my life's become.
