On the road

So, I was given a few tips to avoid jet-lag before I left the states, and did none of them.  That is why I woke up at 2am ready and energized, and why I now am ready for a nap.  I did this to myself.

I'm going to do my best to stay awake today and go to sleep at a normal German bedtime hour.

I was up at 6am this morning, for a 7am call.  Apparently all our hotels are providing breakfast and the spread this morning was exciting for anyone who enjoys both options and condiments = me.  My bed was sooo comfy.  All in all an excellent, if uneventful, time thus far.

We left Frankfurt at 7am this morning, on the way to Rostock to rehearse once before the first show, tomorrow.  Rostock is 6 hours from Frankfurt, and I am wondering how much coffee I can drink before I become immune to it or have a seizure.

Love having Wi-Fi in the van, though it's very slow.  Trying to talk to Woody on Skype was kind of a stop-time disaster of  a conversation.  23 more days of tour and 19 shows to go!

Oh, the guys are really great, tour managers are totally on top of things and super cool, and William's wife Erin is on the road with us.  It's comforting to have another female here, and even better that she is awesome.

Side note:  We have tour managers!  I don't need to keep track of anything, but myself.  How fucking cool is that!

Worth noting:  mini-vibrators are sold in the public bathroom tampon dispensers.

Fingers crossed that I remember all William's songs for rehearsal!
