– Cambridge – Providence – New Jersey – Maryland Right now I think Dave Pahanish is in Kerrville, TX, doing what we did last year. Except I hope he’s winning. I really want him to win. It’s the other one. The silent one. Marvel at the different color type that heralds my coming. The summer has…

Thursday afternoon, wandering in search of the Rose Garden in Upton, MA, we find a town fair going on across the street. The bear didn’t ACTUALLY have ice cream on his head. That’s merely a trick of the eyeballs. Mmm. A good day. Wandering Boston with Whitney for much of it, hunting the source of…

You’ve GOT to Love any venue that advertises itself with LiteBrites! Heather and I have landed ourselves in New Haven, CT. It’s good to be on the road again, though my back hurts from the drive, and I haven’t been playing as much recently cause I’m a slacker, so my shoulder kind of hurts, and…

Ugh. Woke up feeling nauseous this morning. Went back to bed. Woke up feel odd this afternoon. All in all, my sleep schedule has been pretty backwards, upset, offset for the past couple of days. You know, you stay up later and later and can’t seem to turn it around… I went to an art…

Also, I know I have a billion pictures of Keola sleeping in weird and cute positions… but… you know, there’s a reason. So damned cute. Tuesday night I went to the College Perk open mic. I’m trying to see if I can’t be part of some sort of community again – it’s frustrating to be…

Another competitor at the Susquehanna Music and Arts Festival – Julie Clark. One of only two people I’ve ever seen perform with a little miked footpad for percussion (the other being Dave Pahanish). Her bass player, Jess Willoughby, was simply awesome. We ended up out in the fields after the context playing songs to one…

Wow, exemplify my mood swings please. I spent yesterday with my friend Amy – just hanging out and working on projects and spending time in one another’s space. This morning I’m reminded that I’m allergic to the world, but yesterday was quite, quite good. So, when I first met Rowan, for some reason the black…

It may well be a lazy day. It has not been earned but it is in preparation for days that will not be quite so lazy. Over the next week I’m going to try to place myself on a… (ok, don’t fall our of your chair or anything… be ready for it) “work schedule”. Yup.…

Alas, at band practice last Tuesday, Keola demonstrates that fact that he can seduce even an innocent, innocent pocket monster. TRY to say “Pica” with your mouth full… go ahead… TRY IT. My brain is still sort of in a weird place. I’ve had melancholy dreams where I Live for years in a relationship –…

The new happy family. Del, George and Pica. George presents to me the horror that is a crawfish. As a Marylander, I feel quite at home dismembering a crab. This creature, however, I display very little talent for. To the right, my brother sitting in front of a portrait of Gunther von Hagen, the inventor…
