Coming Up for Air!!!

This last couple weeks has been a MONSTER! I feel like I've been running almost purely on adrenaline, like being chased in a horror movie or something, with everything that's been going on. Last week was the first week of school, which is a beast all by itself, and in the last 8-9 days there's also been my wife's baby shower, my birthday, my church's back to school program, a church conference, and let's not forget that I started a new workout routine that requires that I'm up no later than 5:00 a.m. 4 of 5 mornings during the week. Needless to say, I have a lot of messages that I haven't returned, and I haven't made much forward progress on the completion of this collab album since I went back to work.

Hopefully, this 3-day weekend has been enough to get me rested so I can return to making music and get my mind right. There's always something that seems to come up to throw my schedule into overdrive, but I'm praying for balance each day now so I don't allow myself to become overwhelmed by the things I need to and want to do.

On a side note, I've been reading up on the DNC last week, and it will be very interesting to see how the RNC unfolds this week in Minneapolis. If I see or hear anything 'special' enough, I might just be back up here before the end of the week. Until then, I've got a new song up on my Myspace page called 'Binoculars'. Check it out and let me know what you think.
