Started the day tired and Starbucked, but had a good day! Watched Saving Private Ryan in war class, learned about Antony and Cleopatra in Shakespeare, and talked about The Wire in TV drama discussion section. I also got a bacon cheeseburger, listened to the new Tyler the Creator album, and watched Last Week Tonight. All in all a good day. Then at night I played music in ensemble practice, then went out to Smoke and watched music! It was a house band jamming, they played Autumn Leaves, Alone Together and Lazy Bird. They were great! I took notes for Jazz class. Had a good pint of Guinness while I watched. After them some open mic-ers started playing who were only alright, so I decided to leave. On the way back I passed by a GameStop where 15 or so people were playing Mortal Kombat X because it had just been released in the store, which was cool to see. I like going to places that have a shared sense of community like that.
A good day! And tomorrow looks good too.
My favorite version of Autumn Leaves, Bill Evans swangs like a mofo.
