Home sweet home.
Bon and I moved back to my mom's place today. We'll be here for a month, and then we're moving into an apartment downtown, to be shared with lilla and elysia.
Now that i'm home, safe and sound, i'll be aiming to pick up my piano within the week. Likely tuesday or friday, my days off.
The band is good. String Theory. Can improvement only be achieved through dissatisfaction? I don't know, it doesn't sound like a very sound idea.
Really lovely stuff though. I'm enjoying work (although working so often is a little bit of a shock, considering i went a full 365 days without working, july30 to july30).
So now i've got a bit of money rolling in. I'm the owner of a bundle of instruments. I'm a successful little chef, i'd say.
By the by, i'm a pretty happy camper. It's hard to say what i want, that i don't have. I have alot. I'm looking forward to my future, and digging my present.
Dig!
Actually...
I want to know that i'm working towards what i want to work towards. My passion, and therefor, my ability, lies in music. I'm passionate about communication. I must write. Sometimes i don't think i'm working hard enough. I want to be happy with how hard i work. I could do more. More for you, i hope.

Just a quick note to say that the process of life is in full working order. I've got a new journal, which has aided my recognition of where i'm going. I'm very positive.
String Theory has it's second show tonight at Baba's. I like how we sound. If you read this, give us a little bit of positive thought. Imagine us on stage. There we are.
Imitation
act like me
times the times times
hip, happy.
Transmogrification
just a thought
pretend it's real
until it's bought.
simon,
keeping it real
since '83.
On friday, i had a day off. At about 3:30 i crossed the street to pick up a buy sell and trade. A few weeks prior, i bought myself a drum kit found in the buy sell and trade, it's a fine book to read if there's things you may want.
Anyway, to make a short story complete, i found an upright piano, free for the taking, might need tuning. I called, drove to sherwood to confirm my interest, and considered myself the proud owner of a piano by 4:15.
Guitar
Bass
Mandolin
Drums
Piano.
I'm moving into my mom's house on september first. I'm working full time at Cora's breakfast restaurant. The new band that i'm playing bass for had our first show last wednesday (we played to a pleasantly surprised audience of friends) and we've got an astounding five more shows booked for the next several weeks. Everyone is really pleased and excited. Anxious, too. We've got lots to write. Gotta pump out those tunes.
Hilly billy hot damn. Real glad to have the full* instrument ensemble. I'll be playing as much as i should be.
Come september, i'll begin bass and guitar lessons (maybe drum lessons) to prepare for audition requirements at selkirk college in nelson bc for september '09. That's my life as i see it.
Love you all. Really. Some people don't read this thing. I'll say a prayer or something.
