Out of sight does not always mean out of mind. Just because I’m not updating daily does not mean I’m being lazy. Far from it, actually, I’ve been quite busy this past week with various extracurricular activities occupying both my mind and time. I’ve been putting more effort into getting the ball rolling on SL002 (that is, the follow-up to the Todd reissue, which is an entirely different – and of course new – process). I compiled and sent out some recordings to folks more experienced in the art of sequencing than I am to play around with, in the hopes that their ears will hear what mine are incapable of. I’m also helping a good friend build a soon-to-launch crowdfunding campaign for a project of his. That’s coming along slowly but surely. There are social commitments, there’s homemaking still to be done so this new domicile of mine might eventually feel like a place where I belong, and oh right I had to spend my weekend at a friend’s because my place was tented and fumigated (termites, apparently?) this weekend.
So whereas you might click onto this website – or load up your RSS reader – and see nothing for days on end, I assure you this isn’t an extended holiday. There’s work going on behind the scenes. I’m trying to put myself on a more successful path. I’m challenging myself to explore new avenues and work harder to accomplish some goals I’ve sent for my professional and personal life. And I like that I can poke my head above ground every few days – maybe it’s more like once a week at this point – and share what I’m listening to and a few words about my life. Thankfully there are some shows and events coming up in the near future that will likely necessitate more posts. It’s going to be a busy end of the month. You know, I think I could use an extended holiday right now.
