The ups and downs of writing songs

I've been experimenting with songwriting lately and it's extremely stressful. When I first write something I have all these thoughts about how great it could be. I like where the song is going and my vision for the song is fairly clear. Then you put it away and sleep on it and it's like it turned to crap overnight. Doubt sets in as you try match the seemingly terrible lyrics to a melody. All of the sudden you're trying to remember what the song is even about!

All this to say...I HATE SONGWRITING! But, I'm extremely hooked. Let's just hope it gets better.

Google Analytics

So....Wick showed me Google Analytics a couple of weeks ago and I have to say that it's pretty awesome. I'm not sure why we have such a desire to know so much about the people who read our blogs but it tells you more than you could ever want to know.

Alright, so I don't really care that much about Google Analytics but it has given me a new hobby. I now visit Wick's blog several times a day from as many computers as necessary so that he'll think he is getting all kinds of unique visitors. Sometimes I even let is sit there for an hour so he thinks someone really likes him.

Don't worry Wick, I'm just kidding. You know it sounds like a blast though!

My first blog

This is my first REAL blog. I've posted things using social networking sites before but never truly blogged. I'm not sure I'm going to like it but I'm intrigued by the blogging community. Anyway, wish me luck!
