I'm glad you're feeling better, and resisting the urge to get high from the hydro, good work.

Once I got free from opiates I decided I'd never risk trying again to use them responsibly, though I never really have other than before I ever really got a good opiate high. In all likelihood I'd be fine if I did it once now, because I've grown a lot, but the fleeting reward of a few hours feeling good is in no way worth the risk of going back into that place. For me, the most insidious trap that opiates laid in my mind (or that I laid for myself I suppose) was the thought, once I got past the withdrawals, that I could use them responsibly the next time. Just my 2 cents.
Now this is awesome.I just listened to the entire thing -- great to listen to while brainstorming for a project. What a jam! That's phenomenal!
Thank you good sir.

The funny thing is, we all felt kinda blah about it right afterwards and I didn't listen to it til yesterday when I got the recording. And then I was like, whoa, that's actually awesome. The bass player didn't even want to listen but I forced him to and he loved it, and he jammed along with a new bass line that was even more awesome. Another thing is that we kept it going for another 10 minutes or so but the program cut off recording for some reason, that's the reason for the fade at the end, so it didn't just cut out suddenly.
If anyone is interested in listening but doesn't have 48 minutes to spare, my favorite part starts at about 28/29 minutes in.
Tonight we're supposed to jam again, I told my girl we'd hang out after work though because I didn't think we'd do it 2 days in a row. Usually she doesn't come over while we're jamming, though I wish she would so she could listen in. Hmm... what to do. I'm leaning towards hanging out with her after the jam, because creating music is more exciting than anything else.
