Hello everyone. Just updating on how things have been. I'm watching kid shows with my little cousins right now haha. They're quite interesting... lol. They get really random. Right now Yo Gabba Gabba! is on. We were watching Maggie and the Beast, and they just randomly walked by these sheep sitting on a cloud. anyway, I think you'd have to actually watch it to see what I mean. Otherwise it's not funny I guess. It was to me though. well... it wasn't funny to my little infant cousins haha. Ok I'm done.

So we had shows in Boston and Philly, and they were sooo much fun! Philly was an amphitheater show, and I think the sun really makes people happier. At least when it's not beating down on you at 110 degrees. But the crowd was so cheerful and energetic, and it was just a lot of fun. Woah... Sean Kingston is in Yo Gabba Gabba teaching a dance. That's crazy. I like Sean Kingston. Wow I'm feeling really spacey today. But you guys have to watch this show if you're bored it's really interesting. Oh Sean Kingston just disappeared.. This is so weird!

We had our Georgia show yesterday. I had a day off Sunday, and also have a day off today! I have family here so I'm getting to spend time with them! It's great hangin' with the fam. My brother's here too, but right now he's sleeping. So I'm just hangin' with the cousins right now. One of Demi's guitarists, Mike, had a family reunion in Georgia so I met a bunch of his family last night at the show too. Anyway, I probably shouldn't be writing a blog right now because I cannot focus whatsoever. You can't blame me though because there's a lot going on around here. But at least I'll leave it short! Did you guys buy Regina Spektor's album? Because I love it.

Well I best be off now to spend time with the family. But before I go I just wanted to mention how valuable I find writing in a journal is. Last year I didn't really keep a journal, and I thought it took too much time out of my day. I'd do it every now and then over the last few years, but I'd get unmotivated and stop writing. I made it my New Year's Resolution to write at least once a week in it though, and at first I thought there's no way I'm going to keep this going lol. But surprisingly, I 've been doing really well with it and I'm so glad that I have. It really helps you sort your thoughts out, and also gets your mind kicking into gear. One of my favorite things is going back to a page and reading what was going on through my mind 6 months or 2 years ago. It's a really neat thing to do actually. Especially the entries that were before I knew what all was going to happen with music in my life. Think of how cool it'd be for your grandkids and great-grandkids to read about your adventures and what you were like too. You may think, "Oh my life's not interesting enough to waste my time writing about it in a journal." But hey, you should go for it anyway and you might surprise yourself how cool it will be reading back sometime in the future. So I'd like to challenge all of you to get a journal and start writing in it tonight! Let me know how you do, ok? If you don't have a journal, then go out and by one this week. I'm really serious about it, and I'm a true believer in how much a journal is worth. Once you start writing in it, it really becomes priceless possession. Well I've gone off long enough about that, but really let me know how you guys do and keep it up! It'll be sooo worth it in the long-run, even for whoever ends up with it later on. But with that, I leave and say until next time!

Song for the day: Why Georgia - John Mayer


P.S. Thanks everyone for the notes you've been sending on the charities you've been getting involved with! It's been really neat to see what foundations you've been helping out, and I think it's awesome! I love to see it!

You're right David - you are very scattered today -and yet you still ended up saying something true and real. I love that about you. I agree about the journal writing - many times I worked through issues and stuff - when you write it down it makes it easier to manage or make decisions. I dunno - but I think you are brilliant! Stay happy!!

Thanks for the blog David. =D
I ditto what almost everyone else has said. I'll get a journal just for you. LOL. My first entry will probably be about how excited I am to see you on Friday!
I'm wearing my Invisible Children bracelet right now. Thanks for being such an inspiration to all of us. =D
See you in Houston! Look for my sparkly poster. It says "DAVID ROCKS" hehe.

Awesome! haha.. that show sounds really funny... hope you enjoy the rest of the day! Of course Daniel is sleeping he stays up all night lol...
Journals are priceless.. I love to write about my happenings and thoughts, sometimes I look back and laugh about how I see things sometimes, and it helps me work through thing too! Something that I thought was important then, doesn't seem as important now!
It's funny how we grow and change!
Happy for you :)
Love

I used to keep a journal when I was younger and I love looking back and reading the stuff I've written. I've been thinking about starting one up again so maybe now I will...just because you said to!! Seriously though, a journal is really a great idea! It can help clear your mind or help solve problems. I imagine for you it can help you maybe come up with song ideas :) Anyway, love this blog and the rambling of it all...something I tend to do when I write stuff. I imagine your journal is filled with all sorts of randomness and rambling. I plan on writing you a letter to give to you at the show I will be seeing you at so be prepared for my endless rambling :) Take care and God Bless! I'm off to the hospital to give support to my sister as she is about to have baby #4 !!!!

I have always felt the same way when it comes to writing in my journal. I started mine the year before I started high school. And I now have a collection of every school year and summer since then!

Thanks for sharing, David! -t's always nice to hear your insight on things! :)

P.S. I haven't bought Regina's new album yet, but 'On The Radio' has been stuck in my head the past few days! Lol
