It's just about midnight here in Seattle, WA. The New Pornographers are still on stage, which means that I am still perched behind the merch booth at a venue called the Showbox. It has been a very, very long day...
Since we were in Victoria, BC for yesterday's show, we needed to take the 7am ferry back to Vancouver and then drive down to Seattle. In order to make the ferry and be sure we had a place in line, Alby and I got up at 4:30am to begin our journey. This was after making it back to the hotel around 12:30/1:00am. So I have been zipping around on roughly 3.5 or 4 hours of sleep, plus a couple of winks in the minivan on the ferry. I'm crashing in a big way!
In addition to early-morning border hopping, I was welcomed at the venue by a virtual mountain of new merch. 2 new shirt designs, 3 CDs, vinyl and a poster. I spent the better part of my afternoon and into the evening sorting through all of the new items, taking inventory and organizing like a good little worker bee. Managed to snap a few photos, but they're just of me and my merch mountain. I'll post them later. Feel free to get excited.
Ok. Brain shutting down. It's 12:07 and they started around 11, so i'm hoping it's just about over and I can go sleepies. I was going to visit with some friends from high school that live out here, but I'm thinking that has to wait! I've already promised my time to a lonely pillow and mattress that have been pining away for me all day long. You can't deny a piner, now can you? (Is that even a word? Piner? Sure it is.)
Good night... Very soon.
