Flap Skin Flap
Just got back from closing. Got out way early (home by 2:00) after closing at 1:30. Was a pretty slow night. A pair of women came in near the end of the night. One of them was cute. The white of her left eye was partially filled up with blood. I kept wanting to tell her in case it was a symptom of some as yet unnoticed medical emergency, but didn't.
The flap of skin on my thumb is beginning to turn white. First shower and shift without the steri-strips. Its been hurting (and bleeding) a lot less, but I have a feeling its going to get worse at some point before its starts towards totally healed. Had a weird thought during the shift: The thumb wound will be a concrete way of dating time passing from recording. What will it look like at PDX POP? At the end of tour?
All throughout this shift, I was wondering how the songs we recorded in November and spent all that time doing overdubs on -- that are now starting to sound amazingly rich and lush as Chris mixes them -- are going to sound next to the new tracks with their better basic tracks left more raw. Does the new approach really fit the new songs better like we think it does or are we just making excuses to fit the necessities of our schedule? I really do think its the former, but spent the night fretting its the latter.
Going to watch some West Wing (season 2, baby!), drink my Dead Guy, and then go to sleep. Its hard to pretend its a normal night when I'm eager to see how things turn out.
