J– and I just got back from a trip to Kinko’s to print flyers. It was kinda fun. The shows today went pretty well.

We set up in an hour! Of course it was a jogging load-in but still! It’s possible. And that includes blowing a fuse and J– looking for a new outlet. So hey–

We did it ’cause we had gone to the doctor for my finger and it took longer than we thought. But they stuck a splint on, that lasted till I got to the parking lot.

I’ve got a new one on now. It’s very secure and 🙂 I’m not on my way to a show. They took the scab off with a scapel and novacaine. My finger looks worse today (the nurse agreed). Tomorrow I go back so they can decide if I need a skin graft. Can you believe it? I can’t.

J– made a really good veggie pie for dinner. I’m not quarantined anymore so I got to eat out in the dining room. Hurray.

Oh– J– also added this thing were he toots one last note at the Rat King after he says “River Rats” and then I go down. Makes getting across stage a little tighter but… well worth it. Amazing as soon as we added that a laugh came. Small tweakings are sometimes all that’s needed. Like the ending, needed a faster fade rate to blackout to get applause. Weird, eh?
