My goodness. The frenzy. I Love my job. Sometimes I hate it, but on the whole, I Love it – and if nothing else, I Love the extremes. There’s nothing dull about it. It’s emotionally damaging at times, and spectacularly shattering to the ego on occassion. Physically painful quite frequently, we work so very, very hard at what we do, and the rewards of throwing yourself 100% into something – it’s beautiful to Love what you’re doing this much.
Ha! And we’d better Love it. Heather and I went to my friend Jason Cox’s wedding this Saturday, and I encountered many, many old friends, most of which I haven’t seen in at least five years, many in much longer. I’ve known most of these people for two decades, and it’s strange to be doing the long-term catch up converation with so many people. I was worried for a bit, that what I think of as an amazing Lifestyle sometimes sounds a bit lacking at first description. “I’m a musician.” “And where are you Living now?” “Oh, here and there, I’m pretty nomadic.” I Live on other people’s couches and out of my car – a couple of months ago I think I felt like I was getting fed up with that. Recent travels have really reinvigourated me though, and I’m excited and hungry for more. I want to do some really LONG trips next year. Definitely get back to Colorado, it’s just so amazing – the people we meet, the things we see – I wouldn’t trade it for anything (not even a $100k / year raise and a million dollars in stocks options, thank you so very much Glovia!).
In any case, the wedding was a beautiful ceremony. Bagpipes and kilts and candlelight. I’m crazy happy for Jason. He’s been in heaven since he met Alissa. Life’s alright all around. (minus everything from my last post, of course).
