I'm updating because I feel I owe you guys who actually read this shit something interesting.

I'm going to lunch with Carrie-Anne Moss from the Matrix today. I've never seen the Matrix, but I think we'll become fast friends anyway. I'm not sure if she wanted me to mention her here or not, but I did.

John, you smell really good. What's that new cologne you got called? I need some of that.

You guys need to sign on AIM more often, seriously.


I had this horrifying dream last night. Let me try to remember it. There was a radio broadcaster, and, for some strange reason, I was watching him on TV. Then this guy with a gun came in and threatened to shoot the radio guy. For some reason, he kept dropping the gun, and it turned out that the gun was covered in acid. So the radio guy grabbed the gun and his hand started melting. The police came in and shot the guy with the gun...this isn't scary. And I couldn't sleep because of that? I'm pathetic.

Look, you had to see it for it to scare you. Yeah, that's it. That's why it kept me up for two hours last night.

Well, I know this entry wasn't of high quality, but I'm extremely tired, as you can't imagine, so give me a break. I'm going to go sleep now.

The subject speaks for itself. I did not just skip writing a journal entry for the past two days. My computer crashed, okay? I managed to get on AIM once, but that was it. Hey, John, instead of buying me gum, do you think you could get me a new computer? I'd like that very much. Definitely.

I just figured out how to spell "definitely." I used to spell it "definately." Shut the fuck up!

Since I'm usually on my computer in my spare time, over the weekend I took to a little pink (shut up) radio. It was small, yet it had a big antenna that you could spin around. So, naturally, I decided to grab the radio by the antenna and see how fast I could spin it around.

Word of Advice: Don't do that ever, ever, ever, ever...

Well, to make a long story short, I no longer have a radio. At least I have VH1. Hopefully I don't break the TV...

Well, that's all you're going to hear from me today, or maybe not. I'm not psychic.

Goodbye.

This morning I had no idea how to start this entry. I guess I am way unconfident. Hey, seeing a chicken get it's head chopped off as a kid would mess with anyone's mind.

I'm hoping to break my habbit of getting up at four so I don't have to go to bed at ten every night. But then I couldn't watch VH1...

My self esteem has been lowered significantly. The reason for this is a fly. Earlier this morning there was this little house fly buzzing around the room, so, naturally, I picked up a fly swatter. I swear, this fly must have had super-human stregnth or something. I ended up with two swatters, one in each hand, and this fly was just...I hate to say this...it was just amazing. Talented. I feel bad for the people in the rooms next to me because all they heard from me for about an hour was, "I got him. Got him...DAMMIT!" I think they're starting to wonder about me...shhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!

Either way, the thing is still here, buzzing around my head, as if to say, "Come get me, Thunder!" I don't know. Maybe I'm just insane.

I think when the tour's over I'm going to get a puppy. I'll name him Fido. Fido is one of those name's that is so unoriginal that no one wants it for their dog now. Therefore, Fido is uncommon. It's the same with the name John. I never see any Johns anymore, except for the one I have to work with.
What would be really original would be to get a finch or some other kind of bird and name it Fido. No one does that.

Okay, I'm way off subject here. What was the subject anyway? Oh, yeah. "Hi." That really narrows down what I can write about. Well, if you've made it this far, then thank you. It's been a pleasure.

Why am I updating every day? Because I can. Don't worry. I'll eventually get bored of this, and then I'll update about...once every few years.
Well, our truck didn't break down yesterday, which, of course, is a good thing. John's still just a little pissed off that I racked up his phone bill, but he'll get over it.
I wish john would start updating again...

Anyway, I really have nothing much to type. Yeah, I really should stop updating every day.

Well, yesterday Scotty and I washed the truck. Scotty was the one in control of the hose and more than once he "accidentally" drenched me with it. That's Scotty for you.
The things I have to put up with. At least I have a lawyer.

Okay, well I've typed way too much for somone who had nothing to say, so bye.

Hey, guys. Well, right now, I'm basically watching VH1, which is the best TV station, just so you know. Yeah, I'm a simple-minded fellow. It takes little things to make me happy and big things to piss me off. If that makes sense to you, then I am happy.

Scotty (Crowe, John's former manager who does 80% of the nonprofessional truck driving for out band) and John keep going on about how I never get annoyed or frusterated, but that's a lie.

Yesterday, in fact, the three of us were heading to the soundcheck when the truck just stopped. Right in the middle of the road, it just stopped, without any other cars around. John and Scotty both tried to figure out what was wrong for about an hour instead of calling for help. Once they finally realized that they couldn't fix the problem themselves, the scene reminded me of one of those cell phone commercials. You know, where the guys are all stranded in the desert and none of them wat to call for help because they're roaming, or whatever. Well, John and Scotty had cell phones but both refused to use them because of peak hour calls or whatever. I don't have my own cell, so I really don't know what I'm talking about.

So, eventually, I grabbed John's cell right out of his hand and called for help. It turned out that something had screwed up the engine, and John and Scotty had basically killed it when they were trying to fix it. So we had to unload all of our gear and pack it all up into another truck. In the end, we were about five hours late for the soundcheck, and a few of the people were just a little pissed off.

The most idiotic part of it all is that John and Scotty still don't know how annoyed I was back there when they were fighting and shouting obscenities at each other.

I suppose I really don't seem to get angry. I hardly ever curse, and I never shout. I remain calm. John and Scotty are just different.

Either way, I'm taking nonprofessional truck driving off my interests list. Usually I have fun on the rides to the soundchecks, but after yesterday, I'm pretty much guaranteed to be a nervous wreck in the truck.

Either way, I still blame it on Scotty. Why? I don't know. Because. Yeah, that's right. Because.



Current Gum: None. I'm eating M&M's.

Okay, so this is a journal and my name is David. It's my journal...and if you didn't know that, then I'm worried about you.

Anyway, you guys can just call me Dela; it's my nickname. I'm part of John Mayer's tour band (I play the bass) and am currently on tour with Maroon 5.

So, now that you know the boring crap, I have to tell you that I'm single and loving it. John (Mayer) is always trying to push me to get a girlfriend. He never quits! Just a few days ago, in fact, this twenty-year-old girl won a back stage pass, and John gave her twenty bucks to ask me on a date. She didn't even know my name. John's a joker, and you just have to get used to him. The one good thing about being in his tour band is that every member gets their own trailer. John treats us all well. I feel so special.

Oh, and you should know that I like gum. I'm chewing it right now, actually.

Well, I just got some 311 CDs and I'm going to pick out the bass lines in them. One thing I like about 311 is that the bass line just keeps moving. I'll see you around.
