Ramblings From Justin Penney

This is an appropriate week to rip off Tim Finn's line, "killer parties almost killed me." First, I bought Stay Positive last week and love it. Second, last was also non-stop.

I guess it was non-stop from the previous weekend as I just kept going! Tuesday and Wednesday evenings were filled with rehearsals, Tommy Donoho and The 359s respectively, followed by performances on Thursday and Friday. I rounded off the weekend with a wedding on Saturday evening and a gin and tonic after a long motorcycle ride.

Starting late Sunday night, my guts felt like mush. My body was staging a full-on revolt against my exploits from the week and gave me no choice but too listen.

Ryan and I often talk about "dry up" weeks. There probably is some introspection that needs to happen when that is a concept in your life, such as, maybe I'm drinking too much. However, the counter of that is that, at least I think about it and take action! I should point out that I'm not talking about getting completely blotto. That doesn't happen too often. I don't find getting drunk pleasurable. I do like a drink, or a few, a night and last week was solidly tilted toward the a few end of the spectrum.
