Long Week Ahead

I've got quite the week ahead. It's staring me back in the face, eyes unblinking, waiting for me to screw up so it can devour me.

First off.... shopping. Ugh. I am SO NOT A GIRL when it comes to shopping. I hate shopping!! Unless it's CompUSA, BestBuy, or Hot Topic, you won't catch me at a store. So Christmas and I don't always get along. I've gotta finish shopping for Dad & Josh over lunch, and then send it off to Hawaii this afternoon. I'm hoping it'll get there by Friday, but I'm not even sure if the mail runs this Friday.

Next......songs. SMiRK's working on a BUNCH of new songs for the New Year's Eve KHit's party. I think we've got "Video Killed the Radio Star", "Toxic", "Magic Carpet Ride", "Melt With You", "Bizarre Love Triangle", and "Whip It". I *so* have my work cut out for me. Practice is tomorrow night. I don't know the words to "Toxic". Um. At all.

Next.... gigs. SMiRK is gigging three nights in a row this week. Can we say, "bye bye vocal cords?" The 23rd is at Fishbonz, the 24th is at Sidelines, and the 25th is at the Scene. I have no idea if we're going to have crowds or not, it's just kinda unprecedented for us to play that kind of schedule. The Sidelines is a new club for us, although they've been around a long time. It should be interesting.
