Day 19 - Just chillin’

Super Bowl day. Today Rich had a day off. So I was all by my self in the studio/apartment and worked a bit on the artwork, and other stuff for the release of the album. But most of the time I used to listen to the mixes, and make notes. I enjoyed sitting outside in the sun, and had a relax day. A day to just hang and do not much. I tried to watch a boring Super Bowl game, but after half an hour I could not interest myself enough for it to keep watching it. By the way, what’s up with this game…. 3 minutes of play, meaning: throw a ball, jump all over each other, and then bang commercial. After the commercial, the whole thing repeats itself. Over and over again. And they are BAD quality commercials. So really NO fun at all to watch this. During half time they had this horrible performance of Madonna, and that was it for me. Off with the telly and went upstairs to watch a movie.
I must say that camping here in Rich his studio has been great, but I am so done with it. I want to get out of here as soon as possible, back home. But that will take another week. Pppfffff… Well hopefully tomorrow I will be a little bit more motivated than today. I’m going to bed early tonight, get some rest.
