Forgive me for my lack of update. I was not devoured by a snake or a hobo or anything. However, I was chased by a dead jackalope that I ran over... twice.
Tuesday night:
Drove to Editor Webb's house to find the way to the school at which we will be performing Our Town. The man drives fast. Like a fast idiot. Therefore, Drum Major and I have given him the name Dan the Speedmonkey.
DM and I were ridiculously noisy all during rehearsal (particularly when hanging around Ryan and Joe Crowell). So noisy that the Walrus yelled at us. It was quite funny... 'cause he's the Walrus.
I was taking Ryan home when I ran over the already-dead jackalope. Then we decided to turn around to run over it again. And then it chased us.
Wednesday:
Mrs. AP US History/Psych Teacher is an idiot. She put a quote from Dubya up on her board. It was something like "Our nation is peaceful, but fierce when stirred to anger." I don't feel like going into why that is the most stupid thing possible. But DM and I marked out Dubya's name. This pissed Teacher off. So she kept us after class and gave us a speech about respecting our president. I had to chew on my face to keep from laughing.
Went back to far away high school for rehearsal. I'm going to miss seeing some of the people in this production. They are highly entertaining.
DM and I talked to Ryan for a while about the differences in our marching bands (mine is better). I do kinda like how the do their section leader auditions. Sec leaders don't have to try out at my school, they are just appointed. Well anyway, Ryan is a cool guy. I met him about a year ago at County band (where I glued my ass to that first chair). Hadn't seen him since.
Anywho...
Tonight. Band concert. Will probably suck, seeing as it is just a glorification of our First Chair Trumpet Player. And my first chair that I glued my ass to was stolen from me. But that's okay, 'cause me and DM are still going to get married.
