it's not december, yet
So I haven't seen a sliver of sunlight since I've returned to E-town, and frankly, it depresses me. Days like these, where I can't imagine at all how people ever settled in a place like this, make me think hibernation should be a more popular idea amongst us human folk. Blah.
Those are my new twin baby cousins (10 months old!) and they are the coolest people ever. Daniel has this stare, this general look, that seems as if he already has the weight of the world on his shoulders-- he also bit my dog Colita. Fearless. And Gabriela is crazy, she has the biggest smile and cackle and already is an unashamed flirt. Going back home for Thanksgiving made me realize how important family is to me, and it was bizarre dealing with baby monitors and high chairs in the house again.
And speaking of family matters, Di is currently smoked out of her room; apparently the guys downstairs didn't crack a window and/or ran out of incense, and the entire apartment reeks of the danky dank. Kinda funny.
But what's even funnier is that the quarter is this close to being over...which is kinda frightening/exciting, in several regards. I'll be making my last regards to the midwestern community in these last few days (cause life, or at least, all lines of thought, end after Copenhagen). I'm debating whether I'm going to keep this site up while I'm abroad, as I can see it being very beneficial (an already established journal outlet, good way to keep in touch, post drawings/photos) or harmful (do I really want a computer to be a main aspect of my life abroad?). However, if numero uno decides on pursuing this group mp3blog idea (hint hint) I would most definitely still contribute. If nothing else, music will remain constant.
And hey, maybe I could even post all the recording sessions I've been involved with this quarter. Pedro should get Nick West and I's 48 min Rock the Alice Millar concert on CD hopefully before I leave... really great stuff, haven't played music with such an accomplished and passionate musician such as Mr. West in a long time and I think it turned out real nice. Our 10 min "Oye Como Va" sounded sweet along with Nick's reworked "Maiden Voyage" cover with me dumbfoundingly trying to keep up. That's not even to mention the Buskin' sessions I got to play in with Peter, Katie, and our numero uno. I think our "Absolutely Cuckoo" should sound pretty cool.
I guess I should start on that Buskin' documentary before I go, now that I think about it... (I swear, I just have to put it together). On that note...
