I was talking to Jett about holidays and wondering why new year's eve is such a big deal to me. I may have finally sorted out that all it is is a night. It's just a night like any other night. You can "start over" and dream of the great unknown whenever you want. And it seems scarier or tougher or something to do it when it isn't the 1st of something and you aren't in a different geographical place, but it's certainly possible. Last week's crappy locked-out debacle which ended in finding a "3 DAY NOTICE TO PAY RENT OR QUIT" taped to my door (management didn't receive my check somehow) was the turn for me. I'm switching back to the voice program (sorry, Jack), I'm reading and writing more, spending more time with my camera, joining a gym, actually unpacking my boxes and organizing my apartment, getting out and playing shows again...
So I guess all I mean is that my foray into the non-posi is coming to a close. No, I'm certain of it 'cause the MySpace cosmos sent the first words I've heard from Sir Olmstead of the Knights of Posi, and that's obvious reinforcement. I guess he's been out on tour with Shook Ones, so I guess I'll be out seeing them next week in Anaheim. Yeah!

You once covered a song called "What Are You Doing New Years?". I understand. I think it had the same effect on me. I've been having the same "new years is just a day, but it's also not" argument with myself lately.
