Thursday

Thursday I went to work and then I played bass and then I worked out. I noticed today that I was really focused at work. I really try focus on working and learning because I feel like I need to pay my dues at the new place, I need to be humble and work, and I need to really do what it takes so I can keep this job. I like the new job because it is in the same location at the last job and it involves most of the same problem solving and it really has become clear that I need to work hard and take advantage of chances to grow in my career. I have really been around business around so long that I have seen the way people cope with work and I find that it all about helping other people and letting people do their thing whatever that maybe. When I was younger it was all about me and that was a bad atttiude. Team/helping people/sacrifice is the way to really feel good about myself. Anyway I went down to black and gold to play guitar and we had a wierd time. There was another band setting up and playing techno music and they were all up in our business. The guys I play guitar with failed to learn any of the songs we set out to play, and the drummer still was on my ass to tune my bass, but overall I guess I am fine with just sitting there and playing non-sense. I can only show up and play bass and I can't control what the other people do. It seems to be more enjoyable with the drummer plays with one guitar player because it doesn't sound all crazy. So I am glad I went down there and was nice to everyone and tried to have fun. That is all I can do. I went to work out and while I was working out I watched the Royals game. It was enjoyable and I got home. I was thankful for the chance to work today. I was thankful to play bass. I was thankful to play bass guitar. The songs I have learned was mostly Nirvana. About a girl, all appoligies. Jesus don't want me for a sunbeam. I never thought I would be listening to Nirvana again after 23 years after not listening to them, but I listened to them over and over and over to learn the songs on my bass. I am getting better at knowing what it takes to learn songs. It takes time and effort. So that is it! Longer blog today, and that is because I have been doing alot of crap. Most people think in their minds that if they don't work their live will be fullfilling by just sitting on the beach, but I know I need have a balance of work/stress/excersize/prayer/friends/family/ to really feel good.
