People are difficult; that’s a fact. Me and the people I do theater class with are trying to organize an end-of-course gathering in June. One of my classmates offered her house for the gathering, but when she made it clear that they wouldn’t be allowed to smoke in her house, others suggested going to the beach. However, some people voted against the gathering at the beach. Now they are discussing going to a climate-controlled restaurant with a cheap menu. Now I just don’t understand why people are so fussy and difficult. The idea is to share some time together, so it doesn’t matter where we gather as long as it’s in a place with a cooling system. The classmate who offered her house, who’s also a friend of mine, has a very big place with air conditioning, and I was fine doing it at her place. Why isn’t everyone happy with that? Beats me… Anyway, I have to write some HVAC stories today before I head off to the beach and meet my bandmate. We are going to hang out at the pier for a while and then play near some of the local businesses in town in hopes of getting weekly gigs. We are going strong with our music now; we have business cards, new songs, and promotional videos. We’ve even gotten support from the local cooling supplier, who is helping us with filming and editing our music. A local contractor has already offered us some gigs to play at a ski resort in the mountains this winter in cozy clubs with awesome fireplaces.
