I finally finished the mix of rid of you, I overdubbed a guitar part that sounds like a chainsaw with a motor made by Audi.  The more I listen to the song the more I realize how great of an achievement it is for me.  I couldn’t be happier about my drumming, guitar playing, choice of notes/tone on bass and how beautiful the bridge is.  The way the vocal harmonies envelope you while the arpeggios dance around the bassline is just incredible.  I could write 10 pages about how witty, sharp and raw the lyrics are, you couldn’t dream of a better kiss off song.  You know you’ve written great lyrics when the intended target is livid with anger, even without the mention of her name!

Roughly one week from now I will be pain free, emotionally and physically.  This is the first time in my life that I’ll ever experience this feeling.  Everyone that I’ve seen in the past couple weeks has been telling me how healthy I look.  The staff at my oncologists office were nearly in tears because they were so happy with how I’ve turned out, does it get any better than that?

I’m in less pain today than I’ve been for several months and I haven’t even had the stitches taken out, that’s how great this procedure was, truly incredible what they can do these days.  Sometimes we as humans think about how we can make our lives better and its usually by trying to add something or someone.  For me it was subtracting.

You know you’re good when you can take this kind of shot in your backyard.
