Galactic, Crush, & Mt. Snow

Today is Thursday February Fourth Two Thousand Ten. Galactic was awesome last nite with Cyril Neville fronting, much better than the Houseman in my opinion. He adds a much needed freshness and hip hop sound plus he can blow a trombone really fucking well. They also had another guest on stage playing tenor sax and he was awesome as well. Both my friends hadn't seen them before and they loved it, whats not to love really. They are an incredibly danceable band who play their own tunes combined with NOLA Funk classics. It was an interesting crowd, hipsters, hippies, and straights all in the same room together without any fistacuffs. I think its funny that I groups myself with the straights these days but thats how it goes. It wasn't too packed and I didn't run into Randy which is bittersweet. I mean I'd like to talk to the kid but sometimes its easier not to deal with the emotions that go along with it. It was super packed and I didn't run into some other friends that I was looking for so its possible he walked right past me at some point.

Ok, I admit it. I have a total crush on one of the women I went to she show with last nite. She is really cute in her way of discovering this music for the first time and feels like she missed out for the past fifteen years. I didn't want to mention that she was fifteen when this sort of stuff started coming north. She is also very pretty and fun to be with and I am going to have to be very careful. She has asked for advice about a situation that I am very familiar with and I am not going to use that to advance whatever social agenda I might have. She seems to care for me whether it is a friend or more than that and I am going to be happy with that. I enjoy being around her and it doesn't hurt that she is very easy on the eyes. I will just see how things go but god damn is she pretty.

I can't believe its Thursday already. My friend Court is visiting me from CA because he is getting paid to take pics of some chick snowboarder. I am wrestling with the idea of going up to Mt. Snow early Saturday morning to check out the competition and then come back home on Sunday. He has to get up super early to catch a flight on Monday morning so I don't know how much hang time we will have during the Superbowl. He will probably be pretty busy on Saturday taking pics and shit so I would be on my own for most of the day. It will be good to see him, esp since the last time we hung out was at Burning Man and thats such a far out time that its hard to talk. The time before that he was in Boston and I am pretty sure that he had to stop the car on the way back into the city so that I could throw up. Not my proudest hour but he has seen me much worse. I have not explained to Court that I don't drink anymore so I need to talk to him about it at some point. I am not going to make a big deal out of it and he is a good enough friend to just chill about it.

Well, thats it for now. No more writing or I will be just babbling more about pretty girls that I'm not sure what to do about.
