• Hi all

  
  

  Thanks for the encouraging words in the recent days. It;s been difficult, but weère getting through it. I have a pretty broad perspective on life, so I;m doing a pretty good job of not letting it get me down. One of the next hurdles will be telling my parents. They;re always very supporting and loving, but it will sound disapointing to my mother unless I phrase it properly.

  
  

  Had people over today for a potluck lunch to comemorate Bahai new year. It was nice. Very relaxed, and a ton of fabulous food. I baked brownies and chocolate cookies, and made a big pot of chicken soup, and other people brought things like quiche, chiken, rice, and assorted desserts. Mmmmmmm. It was also the first time my father had visiteed our house. We only had the housewarming a few weeks ago, before which time the house was off limits due to its incomplete state (the password to get into the house was what a s**thole). So that was nice.

  
  

  What I;m really excited about is my upcoming trip. 12 hours from now I;ll be on the bus to the airport, as I head off to St John;s for our performance on Saturday night. Working for CBC is Sweeeeeeeeet. They;re flying us in, putting us up in a swanky hotel, and paying pretty much all the incidental expenses. And paying us well And in exchange, we play 3 songs in front of about 1200 people, and then get broadcast to about 700000 others. Sounds like a great trade to me More details at the Ticklish Brother weblog.

  
  

  So I;m going to go now, since I have a lot to do before then (including pesky things like packing and sleeping). I don;t know if I;ll be able to get online again before Sunday evening when I get back.

  
  

  Wish me luck!

  
  

  Take care
