Well, spring has arrived and already it has this fat guy complaining about the heat. I have admit, although I love Spring and Summer just as much as I love Fall and Winter, I would much rather work in the cold than in the heat.
Anyways, I have started thinking about my future (near and distant, I suppose). I started thinking about the summer and I became concerned. Camp came to mind and the realization that I might have to miss camp this year; it bugged me and frankly, pissed me off a little bit. I have been thinking where I want to go, and what I want to do in the near(ish) future. My thoughts were ridiculous, even to me, which is discouraging to me in a way. It seems my dreams don’t line up with my talents or my income. It feels like my mind is in chaos right now and my patience is a short fuse again.
I have come to respect people who can screw-up, laugh it off and become motivated to improve. Lately, I will screw-up at something as small as practicing drums and I get ticked and lose my motivation to keep playing. It’s something I hope to improve, but as I lose motivation easily improvement is something that is easier to talk about than to do.
We’ll see where these thoughts take me…
On a lighter note, The Muppets Take Manhattan was on TV today and it stoked my love for the muppets once again.
"Dear Kermit, Wakka wakka wakka, but seriously."
Also, the sixth season of The Simpsons on DVD fills my days with laughter. It was definitely a wise purchase, if I do say so myself.

I can definitely sympathize with you on that. It's not easy sticking to something when you it's easy to get caught up in the idea that you're not as good as you think you need to be. Just keep working away at it. Whether that is your drumming or your patience. It's all a process. Good luck with that.
