I am crushing it today!

Tuesday, April 6, 2010



The above is off Dave Barnes' new album "What We Want, What We Get" that was released today. He also played this Saturday night at the Music City Unsigned Tin Pan South Showcase, and I've had it in my head ever since.

So I guess I'm setting the bar for crushing it pretty low these days, but I feel like I've really accomplished stuff today (and it's only 2). I woke up this morning and filed my online registration as an LLC with the State of Tennessee. It was actually extremely easy because they have a website that fills in all the forms for you and files them electronically. I did the same thing with the IRS to get a federal Tax ID number. So by the time I got out of bed today I had already done two of the things I had dreaded about getting this thing going. Two down, a couple dozen to go :)

I also finalized my business cards today, and should have 250 coming my way within the week.

I was going to go to the bank today and set up accounts and credit cards and all that, but I decided I have to have something to do tomorrow, right? So instead I bought my favorite lunch in the world (small basket of chicken fingers tossed in Ole Smokey sauce at McDougals) and took it to Centennial Park, where I am currently sitting on the steps of the Parthenon using the park's free wireless. And the weather is GORGEOUS for this too! I'm definitely going to do this more often.

I also talked with my old job today to see when they want me to come in and help them get the quarter closed, and they said they'd keep me posted, but probably beginning of next week. Which, in theory, is great for them because they're trying to save money and all that, but it just means I'll have to cram 200 hours into 2 and a half weeks instead of 3 and a half. They really have no idea how screwed they are at this point.

Last night I went to see "Clash of the Titans" for my friend Ryan's birthday. Not an incredible movie by any stretch of the imagination, but it knew what it was and I appreciated that. An entertaining way to spend the evening, and I had good company too so I can't complain. There are a bunch of movies coming out in the next couple months that I'm excited about too:

April 9 - Date Night
April 16 - Kick Ass
April 23 - The Losers
May 7 - Iron Man 2
May 7 - Babies
May 14 - Robin Hood
May 21 - Shrek Forever After
May 21 - MacGruber (I LOVE Kristen Wiig)
May 28 - Micmacs

Looks an awesome way to spend the next couple months :)
