Month: November 2002

All I planned to do was add some stuff to the music page… But somehow, I decided it would be a good idea to change the structure of my site a bit. All I’ve done so far is change my journal location to a directory. I’ll probably do this with the rest of the major sections of the site. Right now, though, my battery is running low, and I don’t feel like finding my laptop plug, so it will have to wait until tomorrow. (But check out the music page – there’s some info about my upcoming performances!)

I’ve been quoted! Pretty neat. Other than that, I’m having a blah day, despite the gorgeous sunshine and the promise of slightly warmer weather. I think I need to start going to bed earlier. I’m just too sleepy to be in a good mood!

Ever since I started playing horn again, I’ve been obsessing over lip balm. Let’s see… I have a tube in my horn case, one in my coat pocket, one in my knitting bag, one on the kitchen counter, and one in my laptop bag. I can’t go three minutes after a rehearsal or practicing without putting on chapstick. This is probably not healthy…especially since I recently found a Chapstick flavor, vanilla mint, which is quite lovely. I don’t know, though, is wearing lip balm constantly any worse than wearing lipstick?

I try very hard to exercise my right to vote, but this year it’s going to be tough. I lean towards being a Democrat, which means as the uninformed voter that I am (I know, that’s bad), I tend to vote along party lines. For one of the state assembly seats up for grabs this year, though, the Democratic candidate has managed to annoy me to the point where I wouldn’t vote for her if she were the last politician on earth. Seriously, we’ve gotten about 20 mailings, three recorded messages, and two door-to-door visits (thankfully, we weren’t home either time). The irony of it is, if she’d never sent a thing to our house, I would have voted for her, since she’s the Democratic candidate. Now I have to go read up on the other candidates. I suppose while I’m there, I’ll check out the rest of the races, too, and maybe be slightly better informed this year. :P

Well, now that it’s practically winter, I finally updated the little pictures on my blog to be more fall-like. Oops. :)
