silent night caught my ear tonight... take a listen to some of his tunes...

well today is december 21, 2009... end of this decade of the millenium...

personally i'm glad to see it pass and ready to embrace the new decade...

it's been a long hard 10 years... good things come too, don't get me wrong... but it's been long and hard...

i've been having difficulty getting excited for the holiday and instead have let myself just feel how i feel...

yes, i can participate, show up, smile, sing with the babies, play... bring christmas treats to work, but overall, i'm just not into it...

i'm not bah humbug or anything, i'm just very very reflective this year... and though i can still feel joy... overall, this is a strange time and my heart feels a lot of loss around me...

my friend sofie posted this video on facebook, and it brought up so many memories.

It is one of my favorite moments in this movie, "network"... and it's still appropriate for today...

I have used this line more than a handful of times over the past 10 years and so i repost her post because it defines how i still feel regardless of what time of year it is and who is our president... i'm still mad as hell...

in this musician's music....

thank you Max!

I don't know, but i just love stand up bass (acoustic double bass?)... love how they play together...

Watching the bass player makes me miss my dad... he played acoustic bass... wonder if it's too late for me to learn it?? makes me choke up everytime i see it played... maybe i'm a weanie... missing daddy... i could learn like i want to pick up the guitar again, learn the harp and plunk away again at the piano... maybe i'm a misplaced artist...

sorry i digress... enjoy the vid...
