I am reading several things here...

Amy Poehler is supposedly set to star in a new Office spin-off, but then I read an article that said it wasn't going to be a spin-off of The Office, but rather a new comedy that is possibly set in an office...so I'm confused. Can anyone clear this up for me?




P.S.

THE DARK KNIGHT WAS AMAZING.

Stay at home dad = craziness...chaos...constant talking...

How do people do this?

I mean, I love my children, but they are driving me nuts!!



I know I promised you an iPhone story...but I'll just say this. I called the Glendale Galleria (location of closest Apple Store) to inquire about the line that would be forming for the iPhone...I called actually about TEN TIMES and got a different story every time. No one will be allowed on the premises before 6AM...the line will start around 5 or 6...it'll begin at around 4 or 4:30, you can call back...
Finally around midnight I called again and asked what time I could come...another noncommittal answer by the security team over at the Glendale Galleria. So I followed up with another question, "Ok...is anyone waiting out there right now?"
"Oh yeah...there's some people waiting out there now in their cars and stuff..."
"THANKS A LOT!" I said and slammed down the phone (ok...I just pressed "end call" on my old iPhone...but slamming it down just sounds much more dramatic).
So I ran out of the house a few minutes later after gathering together the essentials: fully charged iPhone, fully charged laptop, a vitamin energy, vitamin water, and a few other snacks...and a camping chair to sit in.
And thus began The Great iPhone 3G Experience of 2008.

Other Highlights:
-Being 15th in a line that eventually became over a thousand people
-Meeting a producer in front of me in the line...and talking about movies and stuff for about the last two hours before getting our phones.
-A 5AM trip to Starbucks to download a music file that I had to work on that the composer had literally JUST finished writing. Thank goodness for free AT&T wifi at The Bucks!
-Daniel being ineligible to buy the phone because I had forgotten to pay my cell phone bill. OOPS! But I called and paid it right there, so it all worked out...phew!
-Not waiting ALL DAY in that line, but rather, all night...I still went home and worked AND met an 11AM deadline for that music I had downloaded and worked on at 5AM.
-Having an iPhone 3G
-Hanging out with friends the whole day
-Feeling like poop for most of Friday since I didn't sleep a wink.



Christy started working at Starbucks last week. Can you say 30% discount?
YEAH BABY!

THIS is where we win all our money back...


Oh--and Starbucks releases new drinks today. A couple of Sorbettos and a new healthy protein drink or something. Check it out! You KNOW I will...



Having internet woes today. Can't get it in the studio right now and my email is freaking out. Argh!
Anyway....that may be why you aren't hearing from me right now....

This is what is currently in my studio fridge:




I mean...who WOULDN'T want to come over and make beautiful music in my studio?


Ahhh...this picture contains so much wonderfulness...
