Oh, tis a sleepy morning. Heather comes back home tomorrow, though I probably won’t get to see her till Tuesday at our regular Brewers Alley show. I’m glad she’s home. Java Mammas ends this week.

For my birthday Keola, Kristen and I headed over to the Udvar-Hazy Air And Space Museum in Virginia. It’s been open for 7 years and I’ve never been. Absolutely inexcusable. It’s the day before my 36th birthday, my hands feel like Hell, I’m tired and the cats are whining. And I feel great. Last night we…

David Eisner, thank you for a spectacular night. I’ll add it to my “most amazing shows of my Life” list. I’m not sure if it goes on my “world-changing” list, but it might. Going to see Robert Plant!!! Tonight David (the owner of House of Musical Traditions) took his wife and Kristen and I to…
