all is happy again in toyland, no more sound police, and lots of work going on. i'm about to sheepishly admit something. i've been playing a little jazz. just with friends to make money on the side, honest... but i've been enjoying it. all the things you are, solar and my personal favorite - the days of guns and roses! oh yeah, blue bossa, black orpheus, red 22 hike! jobim goes for the touchdown - goooooooooooooal. gooooooooooooooooal. goooooooooooooooooooooooooo
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooal i just wanted to be honest with all of you, this is a relationship built on trust, and if i have a dirty little secret, i want it to be our dirty little secret. the recording of our little demo should be done this week, i'll post a link. we need a name though. i think jazzed friends. or the return of all dressed up. ellie martin, corey schreppel and matt pryor are the co- conspirators. anyway, gotta go practice my chord scales- i mean ROCKING, ROCKING, definitely ROCKING

love notes

i hate being interrupted at anything, especially work. when i'm practicing singing or playing and someone calls, i ignore it and throw the phone in another room. when someone comes to talk to me i bite their head off. when i'm in the middle of leading a rehearsal at a space i've paid to use for such and a pawtucket police officer threatens to kick my head in because he doesn't have time for this $#@% i get really ticked. apparently the people in the building who prop the door leading to theft, blast guitar hero into my bedroom at 3am, and care for a child in a manner that promotes a consistant bloody scream at all hours of the night accompanied by the yips of a malnourished chiwouwa have a problem with me working during the daytime. well that's just lovely. so, i've left love notes being mr. friendly. but i warn these losers and landlords of the lofts that if this becomes a problem i'm going to be the biggest pain in the @$$ they've seen in a long time about it. i've got a jewish mother and have had 2 jewish girlfriends, i've learned a thing or two about getting my way.
