day one.... o snap!

Yeah so mines a little late because of having to go from church this morning to a lunch meeting then to another church where I work at mixing sound so this is the fastest I could get this up.

Day one of media deprivation pretty much caught me off guard. I normally wake up to music from my laptop in the morning but this weekend I had nothing planed till around 10 so without an alarm wasn’t a big deal since normally I am up by 8:30 so wasn’t a problem. So by ten I had to be at a friends house who needed help moving and this is where I had to cheat a little. He had given me directions the week before on paper but they weren’t to great so I ended up having to call him but I guess that comes under the emergency phone use well at least I hope lol and then music is like everything to me and well I can’t sing so to get in the car and try not to listen to music absolutely killed me. I made it the first 15 mins while driving in my car clean of music but then I had to give in the last 3 mins because it was killing me with no music and no one to talk to so one song to help me get pumped for the day. After reaching my friends house it wasn’t to bad because their was a few of us their helping him move so didn’t need my phone to talk to people or music and that lasted till about 2 but here is where I cheated again. As I was leaving I noticed my tire was low and I ended up with a nail so I had to use my phone again to find a discount tire and to call my boss to let him know I was going to be a tad late because discount tire always takes forever. I made it to the tire place with no music it was a pain but I made it there. So to this point media wasn’t to big of a deal to go without other then the emergency phone call and gps. I had to work later in the evening and when he told us about the project and that it was the weekend all I could think about was how I would make it through work. I work as a pizza delivery guy at Papa Johns. Now it wouldn’t have been such a big deal if I was an insider because there is a no phone policy and also there are people to talk to inside. Once at work I tried to find a driver with a map book thinking at least one might have one I could borrow and turned out no one had one :/ So I ended up cheating again using my gps for the night and yeah I kinda gave in a few times with turning on the radio on a few runs I though I could go without it but when you have those long deliveries it kills to be in dead silence and having to drive and drive all over alone and nothing to do. So after work all I could think about was what would I do without music I would probably go insane as I started to a little with my deliveries being bored out of my mind. After work since I am house sitting next door to my girlfriends house I just walked next door I didn’t have to text her and I told her before hand what my project was so it was cool between us. I walked into the house and her brother was watching tv so we decided to go into her game room and play pool. We played a few games and then go a phone call ( her phone) and a few friends wanted to chill and see a movie. We ended up turning them down and they ended up coming over and playing pool with us and talking which pretty much saved me cause I didn’t need tv or my phone or computer since I was surrounded by friends. So finally I decided I need to hit the sack since I needed to be up by 5:30 so I could head to church early since I was on tech for the morning. Said goodnight to everyone and went back next door and this time didn’t turn the tv on to go to bed like I normally do when I go to sleep so it was kinda eh just laying there and well I decided life would suck soooooo much if I wasn’t allowed to listen to music and well the phone I could also probably not go with out, computer wasn’t to big of a deal for me during the day since I was so busy and wasn’t home to be able to mess with it. In the end I guess I failed day one since I used my phone a few times but only cause emergency and well with the music I just gave in couldn’t take it at all!
