Eons ago I mentioned something about being in a band. Well, I'm in a band. And they have a myspace page, which can be found here - Kissing Potion. I'm no longer the keyboardist, which is good because I suck. But I am the rhythm percussionist. Although I'm not listed on the band members section because I still don't have a conga set, which *really* sucks 'cuz those fuckers are expensive. Anyhoo, the first gig is on Oct. 12 at the Comet for any of you on my flist who might be in Seattle.

For those interested in 70's Funk here's the current set list:
Push & Pull - Rufus Thomas
Livin' for the City - Stevie Wonder
Your Thing Is A Drag - Sharon Jones
Rock Steady - Aretha Franklin
I Gotcha - Joe Tex
Think (About It) - Sharon Jones
You Haven't Done Nothin' - Stevie Wonder
The House That Jack Built - Aretha Franklin
Give It Up - James Brown
In The Basement - Etta James
How Do I - Sharon Jones
Higher Ground - Stevie Wonder
I'll upload the songs when I more time. Or get the congas.. or get over my crippling stage fright!
The other thing with me is the writer's block. I actually, I don't have writer's block because I'm totally writing at the moment - it's just not fan fic. I found out a friend of mine just completed a short film.. and totally didn't ask me for assistance. This motivated me enough to get back to my screenwriting. My goal is to finish the screenplay I'm working on now before NaNo starts up, then segueway straight into my next novel.
And on a completely random note - my brother called me last week. Now, my brother has *never* called me not once since I stopped living in my parents house. So when I heard his voice on my answering maching I totally started freaking out because I thought something had happened to my parents! Come to find out the jackass is thinking about moving to Seattle. Which is why I haven't called him back because I totally don't want him living with me while he searches for a job even though I totally know that's what's going to happen because, well, he's my brother. We share the same mother. And Mom gets us to do the things neither of us *ever* want to do!
