May 18

Couldn't do the show today because of
A) packing for trip to the parents'
B) going to see the amazing Chinese movie "Grain In Ear".

What an annoying day today.

Decided to come in late to do the show and stay late. Then found out there was no reason to come in late because the gym was closed. Then found that I couldn't stay late because Mark decided to bring in some girl at 9 to do a show. So this was 8 to 9 pm.
