Long Day

Besides being a really good Matchbox 20 song, it is a great
description of today. First, it is literally a long day.
Got up at 4:30am and it is now almost 12:30am. I'm waiting
for the DoD v1.0 file to start downloading so I can go to
bed and let it download overnight, although it wont take
that long. I've got 15 minutes left. Today was the music
festival. We got on a bus at 5:30, rode 2 hours, did a
performance for a half hour, plus the hour it took to get
ready, plus the 6 other half hour performances we had to
watch and critique, plus the Select choir practice, plus
the Select groups performance, plus 2 hours back, and you
can see that it quickly adds up. The only thing keeping me
up right now is sheer will power.

I had an interesting conversation right before Select
performance. I was talking to some guy from another high
school that I had watched and critiqued. I told him I
liked his group's performance and I was jealous because his
group had tuxes that had tails, whereas our jackets dont
have tails. From there, we started talking about the
economics of our tuxes. I realized that I was fortuante to
have the one I do and not the one that has tails. Its more
economic for me. He can only use his tux for choir, while
I've used mine for 4 formal dances and a 5th one is coming
up next week that I will be using it for. If I had to rent
one every dance, it would end up costing me alot of money.
Granted, I payed like $130 for it or something like that
(it was that price because we bought a bunch of them and
the quality isnt all that good), but it has more than payed
itself off in the cost of prevented rentals.

Not much else to say. G'night.
