now …and then

Does November always have only 30 days?  Lol …strange - maybe it’s cause the month kinda flew by, but it seems like it just got here.  Oh well.  The cold is here too kids, in case you haven’t been paying attention to this remote corner of the world, and my little widget (that’s a stupid name if there ever was one) says it’s -19 Cel. right now.  Nice, *smirks* maybe I’ll have to get a run in or something.  Maybe, we’ll see.  First off I gotta catch up on a bunch of stuff.

Tailored Music had me hopping quite a bit lately, and I still have some recordings to get through before this week ends.  The ‘Seussical‘ is underway as well, and shows go on till Friday.  The Wafer Thin Mints are rehearsing this Sat. (?) for some upcoming work.  We’ll be heading off to the Banff Centre in early Dec. for 3 days of recording bliss.  I’ve only had an unofficial tour of the facilities, so to get in there and play around is going to be kinda fun.  I hope.  Lol, you know me - I can make a negative out of anything!  My little new ‘to me’ car is purring along fine in this recent cold snap.  I was able to replace my acc. belts just last week (the new ‘to me’ tensioner on the alternator and p/steering pump made that pretty easy) so yeah, no more little squeaks on that initial cold start.  My lappy ram came in the other day as well, so thanks OWC for the sweet deal.  Grandpa decided to go out and shovel his snow last week (at 89), had a hard time breathing, drove himself to the hospital and I guess couldn’t really make it to the doors …so they saw him coming and wheeled him in after that.  That’s my Grandpa *smiling* - he was just taken off oxygen and they hope he can go home in a few days.

Finally, I had a few ‘blasts from the past’ as of late.  I ran into an old girlfriend on the weekend, lovely Elita, and the sad thing was I didn’t recognize her.  I’m SORRY!  She did look different though - in my defense.  Also, I got an email from my old high-school buddy T-ravish ;-) …that’s Travis for short.  That brought back some good memories.  He’s pictured in this post here - along side the karate kid and of course the infamous animal killer.  l8er
