Hell of a day already. Phone buzzed at midnight and woke me all the way up and I spent the rest of the night listening to the 20+ mile/hour winds howling outside. Got very little sleep, woke up tense, and went to my daughter’s school christmas program. The chairs sucked; between them and the muscle tension I was in agony by the end of it.

Everyone around me was filming the stage, which was ok, but about half of them didn’t think they needed to turn their camera flashes off and the rest of them talked at normal volume during the songs. And then the 4th grade class came out with recorders and jesus herman christ it was like listening to someone play jingle bells on a room-sized Aztec Death Whistle.

And we’re supposed to get a massive dump of snow in about 45 minutes. Hoping to get some downtime before the big day next week, but holy cow today sucks.
