So, I totally need to catch up, diary style, so this is going to have to be much less detailed than Aaron's blog entries (as mine usually are).

10/21 (thu)

Right after work, Gabe, David, and I went to the Southgate House (after collecting our gear). This was the Sound Off for Kerry benefit I mentioned earlier. Twenty bands, on three floors. I got some pics, which I posted on the Cincymusic Boards. The set was good, though I couldn't hear Gabe too well. (He said he'll be getting a compressor soon, which will help that.) Mike, as I suspected, didn't play with us.

10/22 (fri)

Though I intended to get a nap after work, it didn't happen, as I ended up staying a bit late. I met up with Gabe, and we ate some Indian food, then traveled with Baby Kitty and January Fairy over to the abode of VenomousValdez for the latter's bonfire party. I got the fire going strong (because I'm good at it), but we soon had to leave. (I did get some pics there, too.) Gabe and I went to a friend's birthday party, but left there after only a short time to go play Halo some more.

The rest of the weekend was uneventful, though I did see I Heart Huckabees on Sunday. It's good, though I think at times it tries to be a bit of a funny Magnolia. I recommend it, though.

I also finished the audio books of Fight Club and Slaughterhouse Five. Now I'm listening to John Irving's Widow for One Year, on which the recent film A Door in the Floor was based. Early on (like, 10 minutes into the 24 hours of novel) I could see that the film is very different from the novel. So different, in fact, that it's not even interfering with my enjoyment of the (audio) book. (I do recommend the film, though.)
