Well, it’s nearly 5:30 a.m., and I am still not asleep. Why, you ask? Because…THE CDS ARE COMING TOMORROW (well, technically, TODAY!!!)!!! The long-awaited, highly anticipated (by me) EP is finally done and about to grace my doorstep with its presence. NationWide Disc (the cd duplication company) emailed me the UPS tracking number earlier today, and I have been tracking it like a half-starved hawk. And now I am a half-starved, wide-awake hawk.
I can barely believe that in a few hours I will be holding a cd in my hands. It may not be a big deal to you, but oooohhh if you only knew! This “simple” little 4-song project has been 2 years in the making. Pretty much everything that could be delayed…was delayed. Just when you thought everything was good to go, BAM! ya get thwacked by the Murphy’s-Law-stick. It was almost comical (emphasis on the “almost”). And so now…to finally have accomplished something, to have finally FINISHED the darn thing…well, you wouldn’t be able to sleep, either!
Proverbs 13:12 says, “Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is the tree of life.” Apparently, it is also a Red-Bull-sized jolt of caffeine.
I am glad that the thing is finally done. I am really glad that you liked the finished product. I am really REALLY glad that I could do the layout work for you and that it came out so good as a finished product.
I am not bragging, it’s just that I know what it’s like to not get back what you sent out (quality-wise I mean) and I am happy that you are happy! Hopefully there will be a bigger, label-backed project in the near future. I wonder if you need a talented drummer for it?
