Post Japan Jet Lag

I actually got 4 or 5 hours of sleep the night previous so the day seemed a lot more productive than I had expected it to be.
We walked to the record pressing plant to pick up test presses for the next Schizophrenic release. From there we headed to Yonge street to bring in 15 rolls of film from our trip for processing. We ate at a nearby Ethiopian restaurant while waiting for our prints, which was a yummy way to kill time. Afterwards I picked up a new pair of Chucks to relplace a pair worn out in Japan. Back at the parental's I actually did laundry and we reorganized our luggage. Craig napped, but I resisted the urge, not that I had much of a routine to get back to as I was quite out of work.

After dinner we lugged our bags to Clintons for a punk show that we may have been more excited about if we had not just had our expectations for live music raised through the ceiling with the visit to Japan. We sold some singles and CDs we brought back but all we could talk to people about was our trip. Born/Dead, CCSS and locals Bastardizer failed to impress. It was the first time I saw Brutal Knights play and they were pretty good. Overall the sets seemed way too long by our new standards, which would impair our enjoyment of local punk shows for months to come. Staying awake until 2am and downing a couple of pitchers of beer in the process seemed like quite an accomplishment.
