:: Sunday, September 14, 2003 ::

A month after Mom's birthday, we celebrate mine (which was actually two days ago). It was a fine Autumn day here in the Pacific Northwest. Grant came down from Portland last night, Mom came up from Corvallis this morning, and we all proceeded to work in my yard until a little after one. Then we barbequed some chicken, had some drinks, and hung out on the porch admiring the results of our hard work. Grant hit the road around six, and I tuned Mom in to one of my DVD's on the high-def widescreen (she's driving back in the morning), and here I am with a little time to myself.

Wow, the last few weeks sure have been busy. The choir has started its new season, and with some great new material. It's nice to be back in touch with choir community. The guitar lessons are in full swing, and I've been busy learning to pick -- my teacher's great: easygoing but knows his shit and has incredible skills. I've been enjoying my freedom without the strangling relationship I'd been in for over three years. Back in August, I made the final decision to extricate myself from that, and it feels like a good one. However, I think I'm going to be unavailable for a while (and perhaps have been for some time), as I let myself pursue some personal interests and goals. So much to do, to discover. I am 38 now, after all.
