Homecoming weekend coming up

Tomorrow I'm headed to Sudbury to do a trombone gig with some old friends - people who have known me since I was 7 years old; who have stood by me through some of the worst times of my life, through some of the best times; people who I have loved feverishly as first true love can only be; people who I spent the best summer of my life with. It's going to be a wild mix of emotions seeing everyone. And it will bring back a flood of emotions from the past. I can't wait. I'm a bit nervous about this gig, but that's what tomorrow's rehearsal is for. It's going to be interesting, that's for sure. I am a bit worried about who might show up for this gig, as it's been advertised all over the city. I'm worried that my father is going to show up. That could get ugly.

It's been a long week. It started with union stuff on Monday - draining, exhausting, frustrating. Now, we'll see what happens. The rest of the week (the little time that has passed) has been spent in meetings and trying to get rid of this plague. I was going to train on Monday evening, but when I showed up at the gym, I promptly got told it was probably best that I didn't train, that I should let my body use all my energy to get better. Wise advice, so I listened to him and didn't train. There are not alot of people I will listen to in this situation!! I'm sure my mom would be happy to hear that there is at least one person who I won't be totally stubborn with!
