Thoughts and Plans

-
Since I have basically been only recapping my weekends I thought I would do that to an extent, but also share my plans for this summer and fall. Fear not, it will not be too intimate or invasive.

  • I took Janine out last night to celebrate her promotion to lab manager. She's going to be working in the Ashland store, which is a bit of a commute, but I'm positive she's going to do a fantastic job. Congrats, baby! We went to see X3 last night which she enjoyed. It made more sense to me to watch it a second time around also. We had dinner at Denny's of all places too. I just had a big time hankering for pancakes and eggs and bacon and sausage and you get the point.
  • Labor Day weekend, bitches! The Lewis Show radio network will return with a weekend long live broadcast. For now I'm just going to return to my old Lynchburg Underground format of playing on the weekends with the plan to have 2 hours worth of live broadcasting. I will then take those 2 hours and put them into a podcast and publish them on both my site and iTunes. I really look forward to it all. I was starting to get quite the following when I did my net broadcast before, and I love doing radio. The format's the same...rock, metal, and insanity. Stay tuned!
  • Speaking of my site, I am fully planning on purchasing TheLewisShow.com. This way I can host my radio station, my podcasts, my blog, and whatever else I feel like throwing out there. It's going to be a very cool site to visit. I've been laying out templates, and researching java scripts for my page. Look out google and myspace, there's a new dog in the yard!
  • Jessi is in for a fun week. She left here last night I believe and she is spending the week with her parents. She is then going to WonderCon in Charlotte with her boyfriend, Sam. I had planned on going all year, but things just aren't going the way I planned, so next year, I will be there. I was also supposed to check out the Heavy Rebel Weekend in Charlotte, but time and finances are limited that as well, Janine and I will not miss that next year!
  • I am really liking this band I found on myspace, Rikets. Check 'em out.
  • I'm also really liking my job. I don't dread going in, I just dread having to get up in the mornings. I'm still a night person, now I have been more than I have in the past couple years. I can honestly say overall, I'm doing better than I have been for years. New friends, good job, a potential car in the next couple weeks, yeah..life's pretty good. I think I'm getting good at turning lemons into gatorade..or is it lemonade?
  • Dosen't look like I'm going to Sounds of the Underground again this year, but things are on for Ozzfest, so far (to my knowledge) Gene, Janine, Jessi, and I will be in DC the first Saturday in August..I'm very excited! Still looks like in September, we'll be checking out the Family Values tour as well. That's really all that's going on in this state this summer barring Gigantour...whenever they get around to announcing it!
Ok, that's enough...it's naptime for me! Keep it metal and keep it loud.

Last Night

I had a ball last night! Janine picked me up from work and we headed to Regency to grab some food and pick up James , who come to find out is a huge Sevendust fan and a lot of fun to hang with, more on that later. We headed to the Innsbrook Pavilion which looks really nice as far as outdoor venues go. There was your typical heavy police and security force there, and I don't blame them considering the copious amounts of alchohol that was being consumed by everybody. There was some band playing already out of Boston, but I wasn't impressed. Come to find out later the guy I was headb anging with during Sevendust was their guitarist. Soil came on next and I'm sold. I had doubts about their new lead singer, but he had a lot of energy. By the end of the set he was down in the circle moshing with the kids and hippies who paid for those tickets. As it started to get dark, Sevendust came out and blew me away again! The entire show was good. There's never a dull moment between th...

For My Friend

I moved to Richmond in September, full of aprehension. Many of you by keeping up with my story know full well the ups and downs that I have faced. I was very fortunate to land a great job in October. After a lot of rejection, and fear for losing everything I started my new job with that same fear I had when I moved to this city. I was crammed in an office with Kelly Stern. He is such a kind, patient, gentle soul. He showed me around and I got comfortable working there really fast. I smile when I remember one of my coworkers talking about us giggling in there all day. I had fun those days. It did not take me long to find out that Kelly was gay. He mentioned living with Jeff, and I put two and two together fast. Kelly listened to my troubles, and gave me sound, firm advice. He has been so helpful to me also by taking me home from work almost every day and taking me by the grocery store to get supplies. I would not still be here if it was not for his help. I cannot think of a way to ...

Under a Spell

Here's a rundown of what I've been doing over the past several days: P layed with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, pla yed with my iPo d, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, and played with my iPod. I know, I've been slacking on the blogging, I've slacked on my radio station. I suck. The station is back on the air again, so please tune in, metalheads. I'm obviously updating the blog now, so that takes care of two birds with one big, smooth, stone. New Year's came and went pretty quick. Janine and I hopped in the PT Cruiser and rode to Easton, Maryland to party with her friends. I had such a good time with them. I can see w hy Janine is so close to them. They're all so laid back and fun and genuine people. We all got pretty tipsy...
