Well, onwards and upwards. The holidays weren't too bad and I'm kind of sorry that they're over. I'm back at work (oh joy, bliss) and I'm bored already. Played out on December 27, which was fun. Tried out my new amp- a Roland Jazz Chorus- which sounded pretty good. It was neat seeing my grandkids, but there were a couple of rough spots. Drank a total of ten beers over the holidays. I've decided that the worst part of the drinking aspect is the amount of obsessing I do over it, so I'm going to work on that a bit. That's about it for now.

Christmas is coming. Christmas is okay, but the hoopla leading up to it shreds my brain. I'm always glad when the season is over with, even though it means going back to the grind. I've kind of had musical schizophrenia lately, I've been playing a lot of different styles. The next one will be a folk one based on a set of lyrics that someone gave me. I'll need his go-ahead to post it. The last one, Ignored needs some work or perhaps a complete overhaul. The vibe is okay, but the mix leaves a lot to be desired. I also did a cover of Band Aid Solution's One Horse Town, which you can check out on his page. Check out his other tunes as well, it's good stuff.

I have been very emotional of late. This is quite out of character for me, but in general, a positive thing- I think. I have my share of emotional baggage, as we all do. I watched Freedom Writers last night and actually had tears in my eyes during some parts. Embarrassing to admit, but true. I used to laugh at people who cried during movies.  I'm gradually becoming less numb as I age a bit. I like to put on a cynical front but really, I'm just a mushy mess inside. I don't think I fool anyone by trying to seem tough.

Well, I've said too much. Until next time, adieu.
