Coop's first haircut, Another In-utero appt, FRSS progress, and Breakfast at Tiffany's.

   A couple of days ago we got Cooper his first haircut. It was our third attempt. Apparently the location is quite popular. It's called "Pigtails and Crewcuts", in TownCenter. In a related note, Coop got neither a crewcut nor a pigtail. His hair was getting a bit long though. I really wanted to get him a rat-tail on the back all trailer park style, but of course, Aimee said no. There's a vid up on my youtube page of this glorious event. He didn't seem to enjoy it all that much. I said to the haircut girl, "I don't understand his reaction... I mean, I stopped crying during haircuts when I was 17 or 18 years old, but I thought he was a little quicker than me." She didn't laugh. I didn't get over the silence during the entire duration of the haircut. Anyway, see below for the visual proof:

   This morning at 11:20, Aimee and I have another appointment with the baby doc to see/hear the heartbeat of our voracious 32 week old utero-babe. I'm looking forward to it. I'm actually really looking forward to the new birthing experience in the new hospital but I'm not looking forward to the sleep deprivation. I know it's one of those things, and in the entire goings of life, I suppose it's a good problem to have. But still, it takes a while to get used to 3 hour sleep intervals and being tired most of your day. I know. I'll get over it. I still have an elliptical to move out of the house to continue to make room. MiMi is coming to stay next week and since it is currently obscuring her passage from the door to her bed in the guest bedroom, time is of the essence. Will it speed me up - probably not. But what's new?

   Last night, had practice with Family Robot Seizure Show (from hereon referred to as FRSS). I've never written about this project in my blog before, but for those wondering, check out the facebook page for more detailed looks in: http://www.facebook.com/familyrobotseizureshow. Being perfectly honest here, I sincerely enjoy the work I'm doing with this band. It is extremely rewarding to me to be able to put out a record, from start to finish, in less than a year. We're currently working on the third full length album, tentatively titled "Doom Falcon". The name came from a series of words Brandon put into a band name generator and those words together sound bad ass. We are at this point about halfway finished with the record and I'm really excited to show it off... Last night I put down new vocal tracks for a few working songs, "25 Minutes To New Orleans", "I Can't Believe", and "Where The Sun Don't Shine". This record will be the best one yet.

   During the last couple days, between here and there, I've managed to watch "Breakfast At Tiffany's" in its entirety. What an odd film. Audrey Hepburn plays quite an interesting and strange person, who's oddly charming and weird but I suppose that's kind of the point. The book it's based on was written by Truman Capote. I didn't recognize the lead actor but after some IMDBing, saw he was the guy who played Hannibal on the A-Team. So that's kind of cool. Either way, it was a neat little movie. Old New York style. Plus it's a classic (1961). It helps to brush up on that kind of stuff, I feel anyway, just to take some stock in pop culture. 

   Finally today's gospel reading: Matthew 9: 9-13. What was up with those nutty Pharisees? Always naysaying...
