everything that's happened in the last two hours



at 7:30 i had just gotten out of the shower and was eating a bowl of frosted flakes. i then walked to my bus stop to get on the 7:57 bus, but it didn't come. so i waited for the 8:23 bus. when that didn't come it become quite nonsensical to wait, because i would miss class by the time i got to school (i only have one class on Thursday), so i walked back home and proceeded to open Logic Pro to work on 1 In 9. so while that was opening and loading all my virtual instruments, i updated my iTunes and looked for a photo to use on this post. then Ian called me and told me he got a new job as a flying ambulance pilot for the Mayo clinic. congratulations! which reminds me, if anyone that reads this prays, and you have spare room, pray for Ian's brother who found a tumor in his brain about three weeks ago. and also, pray for my grandma who was just diagnosed with cancer...again.

alright, now i'll fill you in on the rest of the things that are happening.

school is going really well. so well that even when i got the flu on Tuesday, i still went to class on wednesday.

the court hearing i was supposed to testify at, i didn't have to go to because our company was dismissed.

i am working on an eight part piece for choir, which i showed to my theory/(future) composition professor for guidance/pointers. this in combination with the good job i'm doing in theory I allowed her to grant me access to join the composition class beginning winter term. YAY!!!!

i'm kicking my own ass as far as scoring 1 In 9. i have about 24 hours a week that i am devoting to it. i try to get at least 5 minutes done a week (out of 62 minutes total) and submitted for approval/dislike email/place holder for future improvement. by Michael (who by the way has a myspace blog now and has forsaken all of us "blog" bloggers.)

the rainy season began this morning. so i suppose my wife will want to turn on the heat more often now.

today the comcast cable guy will be stopping over to install limited basic cable and higher speed internet than what i have now, all for less than we're paying verizon.

Reading Harry Potter, book 4. good times.

as far as new music, i am listening to Bernard Herrmann's score to the 7th Voyage of Sinbad (for which i am writing an analysis paper for class.) and i've been listening a lot to Gladiator, i really like the cue "the Might of Rome." also, i hope that i am able to get Danny Elfman's Serenada Schizophrana, and Howard Shore's Complete Recordings of The Two Towers for my birthday or Christmas. i also like Sting's lute version of "fields of gold" which was aired on Studio 60. new Muse, Mastodon, and the last album from Coheed & Cambria. Brilliant.

thank GOD in all his/her glory for music and my good fortune and ability to study it!

good wishes to you all!
also, please don't drink and drive, because the island will kill you.

Damn, beat me to it.

I was going to go with something along the lines of: So, doesn't that hurt when you do that?!

Glad to know things are progressing well, btw.
