It's been a strange few days and it just seems to be getting worse. Right now, I'm sitting in the Phoenix Airport waiting for a flight to Chicago. I left Portland this morning at 5:30 am, got here at 8 am and have been bumped off the first 3 to Chicago. As my last resort, I'm flying from here to Milwaukee Wisconsin at 6:45 pm.
I'm going to Chicago because my Grandfather passed away this weekend. I will miss him more than I can explain on a blog. He was a great man and had a solid impact / influence on my becoming who I am today. Both he and my Grandmother (Nana & Papa) are the greatest people in the world. So kind, funny and family oriented. I love them both dearly and I know this week home in Chicago is not going to be easy for any of us.
The day I found out about Papa's passing, I had an audition for Leverage (the TV show that films in Portland). It was my 3rd audition for the show and I felt like I finally got it right... So, of course - I leave Portland this morning, spend an entire day in the Phoenix airport and find out - I got a callback for Leverage. Of course I did. I could have left Portland on the last flight out to Chicago and made it after going to the callback today, but that's not how it works. So here is my mixtape of Songs from my Trip Through Phoenix:
