Celebrate when you can

I got on the elevator at work today, and one of the volunteers who is frequently there and one of my co-workers shared the elevator with me. The volunteer asked us to what floor we’d like to go, and then immediately started complaining about how stupid it was that people were excited about the Royal [...]

Coffee triage

Jerk. Every time I enter our bathroom, I smell stale coffee. This is because one of the first things I managed to do yesterday at work was let my travel coffee mug (mind you, it was a travel mug, and it was sealed as tightly as it could be) tip over on my music cart [...]

Easter dogs

I notice the massive, inflatable Easter bunnies and their counterparts that live kitty-corner from our house (1. I heard somewhere it’s actually “catty-corner,” and 2. I love that I can now say “our house”) have fallen to the fact that Easter is, once again, past. I was worried about the health and well-being of these [...]

Sleep

Not me Man, oh man, does sleep make a world of difference to me. I simply could not sleep last night, and when I got to work, I felt like I was imploding. I couldn’t concentrate, and I had a lot of trouble singing well through the songs I was providing, and I was unhappy. [...]

Staying clear

Thomas registered me (per my request) for a half marathon in October. Hopefully my training for it will help my physique for our wedding. But, as much as I’d love it, I somewhat doubt I will ever get any smaller than I already am. Regardless, I will try. In my music therapy blog reading, I found [...]

Snow globe phase II (at least)

I have entered another snow globe phase. Not to say that much of life here, with me, had become settled in any respect. Its pieces had at least begun their drift down to the ground, though. Thomas and I are moving my stuff from my studio apartment to his house, which alone is enough to [...]

Moving out and moving in

One of the closest friends I’ve made here since I moved a year ago moves away this weekend. I was so fortunate to have been interning at the same site as Courtney, and I will miss her dearly! She moves on to a full-time music therapy position out of state. Good luck to her. I, too, [...]

Monday, Monday

Didn’t finish. After a really busy and productive few days, I sat down last night to watch a movie. Granted, the movie wasn’t what I wanted to see, as I was looking for a simple, Jennifer Aniston-esque wedding movie. I chose “The Answer Man,” which stars Jeff Bridges and that woman from “Gilmore Girls.” I [...]

Local Rhythm

Tonight I had this explosion of interesting things to do. I was going to attend an arts workshop, but it got canceled. After this, I saw Local Rhythm downtown. I was super impressed and am excited to hear them play out again. I thought they were great. Following, I saw O’Death (who were much better than [...]

Candy and tasks

I have spent a substantial amount of time over the past few days tidying up and organizing and doing things I generally don’t like to do. Things I do much too irregularly. Things I spend an exorbitant amount of energy loathing. And in doing them, I have found, once again, as I have always found, [...]
