About

In the past calendar year I have:
Finished my Doctorate
Found a College Teaching Job
Moved across the Country
Seen the birth of my little girl
Turned 30.

Seemed like a good time to start writing stuff down.

More Space for whatever

I am a percussion educator and performer (and budding composer). I'm always looking for new collaborators and new projects.

Travel/Medical UPDATE

She DID catch some sort of viral something that made her skin break out. Nothing to worry about, no way to treat it. But WOO-HOO it was exciting!

Out the door at 5:15, on the plane at 7:45, terrorizing Mickey by 1:00 Eastern.

See you real soon!

We're less than 24 hours from getting on a plane, so, of course, the kid is at the Dr.

She’s made a bit of a habit of this. The night before we took her to California last year, we were at the ER until 2 in the morning because she was sick with a sinus infection (vomiting at 6 weeks is not a thing you ignore, apparently).

We took her in with similar symptoms in October before we all flew down to Tx for PASIC/family time.

It was pretty obvious she didn’t feel well this morning and now she’s broken out in either a heat rash or an allergic reaction. We’re holding out for heat rash. Her mood picked up after breakfast, so who knows. Hopefully we didn’t catch mumps or some mess at the park yesterday.

Good times.

“ This is what you should do: love the Earth and sun and the animals, despise riches, give alms to everyone that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labour to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence towards the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown or to any man or number of men.. re-examine all you have been told at school or church or any book, dismiss what insults your own soul, and your very flesh shall be a great poem.

That's right, we're going to Disney...

Let's celebrate our country's birthday with a lavish display of fireworks we can't afford because of our country's disastrous economy

Stayed up late last night watching the Billy Mays tribute special that played from midnight until 4 on every channel.

Finally off the road.

Whoever thought up the portable DVD player gets my vote for the Nobel Peace Prize (Travel edition).

Life saver.

alldirections: myminutiae: Since we’re prepping for a trip to a warmer climate, this is our “Magnum, P.I.” look. (Barrett, feel free to re-blog to drive Tumblarity.) She needs to get the mustache going… REBLOG REBLOG! We shave that upper lip daily. For a 19-month old, she’s a hairy kid. (Just kidding, sweetie)* *For when she inevitably finds this on the internet when she’s 14.
