Can Kate Fit In...

So, I'm back in Boston, and recording my butt off (then eating Indian food at 11pm, which promptly puts my butt back on). We now have vocals done for half the album, and I couldn't be more thrilled with how it's sounding.

Back when we were in college, we used to go on mini-tours ("we" being the band, including Brian, the album's producer) to play colleges throughout the northeast. The most memorable tour moments often occurred in the hotels—including the invention of the game "Can Kate Fit In..." (which is exactly what it sounds like).

Anyway, we brought the game out of retirement tonight, while grabbing some dinner at the grocery store:

A proposition...

Dear Kate's body,

First off, let me say I'm really sorry about the sleep thing. I really meant to get you some of that on Saturday night, but then I ended up inviting some friends to come to Chattanooga with me for a gig, and well, you know... road trip. And THEN I meant to rest yesterday, but I had a crazy amount of consulting work to do. I've been so busy, in fact, that both of my blogs are way neglected.

Here's my proposition.

I give you:
-At least 8 hours of sleep for 4 out of the next 5 days
-Lots of vegetables
-A crapload of vitamins
-Laura's suggested concoction of: 1 cup black tea, lemon juice, 2T honey and a shot of whiskey (she swears it works!)
-No long drives for a little while

and you:
-Postpone getting sick until next Tuesday, since I fly to Boston to record vocals for the album this weekend.

Heck, I'll even get you a massage. Well, ok, that's for both of us.

Sincerely,
Kate
