TUESDAY 8/10/21 5:40PM-Butterscotch has new strings on it… I’ll be using it at the Jon Reeve Memorial show… I’m excited about that, sad occasion though it is…I have to get through Wednesday first…I’m having Lunch with Dianne…
WEDNESDAY 8/11/21 4:23PM-actually, I didn’t have lunch with Dianne… I’m going back there tomorrow morning to do the kitty litter and the trash and take a shower… oh I THINK the gig is closer to Rockville than it is to Gaithersburg, so I want to be back in Rockville by 4 o’clock tomorrow…
7:14PM-I’ve been instructed by Eileen not to arrive at the VFW before 6:45… The show starts at seven… I don’t have a whole lot of setting up to do, but I do have some… I’d like to be there by 6:30… That gives me time to feed the cat at 4:30 and then get myself something for dinner- a Wendy’s burger for instance…
8:54PM-in addition to being nervous and/or excited about tomorrow night’s gig, I’m now starting to feel pressure…I guess the pressure is of my own making; but knowing that doesn’t help put a stop to it…
THURSDAY 8/12/21 11:55AM--I'll be playing my first gig since before March 2020 later today and I'm understandably nervous...One of the other members of the "band" seemed surprised that I'd be nervous...someone (me?) once said that if yer NOT nervous before going onstage, maybe it's time to think about giving it up...or (more likely) the person who seemed to be surprised was lying about not being nervous..people DO lie about stuff...all the time...
7:45PM-I almost wish I had been excluded from this event…but I’m gonna try to make the best of the situation…
