Leaving February 26

Rainy day again on a Thursday.I skipped going to the VMFA. I wasn't meeting anyone there today anyhow. I didn't get a whole lot done, but I did go to Burning Hair practice and accidentally dubbed over an important sample on the OP-1. I believe I found it backed up on the computer. Hopefully I can get everything back on before next practice. Dinner was a Chipotle burrito. Snacking on some Aldi trail mix now. Last night I watched a little bit of a movie called "The Algebra of Need", which was apparently something William S. Burroughs had said (according to J.F. Martel in the book I was/am reading). In the film (set in Buffalo) a couple (I think they're on a date?) visit an art gallery showing the work of Jack Drummer, so I paused it and went down a rabbit hole for a bit. On this website I read a bit about Jack's work and his influences and visited websites pertaining to all of the names mentioned. Interesting stuff. I watched a little bit more of the film today, then I decided to finish up the blog post for March 2nd. That was a doozie. Gonna go have a beer and shoot the shit for a minute.
