magicbeans. nothing if not awkward.

woke up to a very loud buzzing. like a big fly, but ten times as loud. it stopped and i kinda drifted back off to sleep. then it woke me again. i reached for my glasses and saw one of those big huge giant bees flying around my bed. freaked me out, even if they're generally friendly.

spent five minutes trying to catch it and put it back outside. then i went back to bed. it was only seven.

spent most of the day in the studio. stopped home on my way back there after dinner. sat down to play my (now one string) guitar. lay down. kinda drifted off to sleep.

sarah called. we talked of a bit. checked my email. er!n called. which was good actually, 'cause this morning i had thought about calling her tonight, but then proceeded to forget over the course of the day.

and finally back to the studio. still not terribly productive. walked back at one with molly. crossed paths with chris.k who was yelling something loud and unintelligible. he stopped by a little later to "apologize". kind of expected him to, as i hadn't stopped to talk.

the first half of today (as in, the first twelve hours after midnight) it was nikki's birthday both here and hong kong. and, although i've wished her a happy birthday a few times already, and although it's not actually her birthday anymore, i'll do it one more time: happy birthday.

[i didn't take the photo by the way, she's in hong kong you see, and i haven't been there in almost eight years.]
