John took today off sick again today… just like yesterday he wasn’t really sick-sick, but just using up his sick-days and relaxing.  He spent a few hours in the music room and recorded a new song, but seemed disappointed in my reaction when he played it for me later.  (It wasn’t the best song he’s ever done, but I’ve definitely heard worse songs in my life!) He still seemed depressed about it later on, and when I asked him why, he said he was feeling a little down in the dumps.  He feels like he can’t write a good song anymore.  I tried to bolster his ego a little, but the best I could say was, "you and me both!" Because I haven’t even written one song since before we recorded "Wonder Wonder", and Jesus that was almost a year ago.  Holy shit, I gotta write some more songs!!
