why is it snowing everywhere i used to live and no where i live now?
I'm looking forward to sitting in my living room and blaring Arvo Pärt's Da Pacem Domine through the surround sound. My parents aren't going to like me anymore.

it's been a while~
i have been really busy but now i can finally relax. i have my last final tomorrow and that is really nice. afterwords pat and i are going to get bagels and do work and then get pizza. it's going to be a good day i think. i'm really looking forward to christmas eve and seeing everyone. i can't wait for xmas break.
i didn't do as well this semester as i have done in previous semesters, but i had a feeling that was coming. at least i passed everything - just not with flying colors.
listen to Arvo Pärt. his stuff performed by hilliard and estonian philharmonic chamber choir is great.
that's Estonia, apparently.

I'm really looking forward to Thanksgiving. Last Thanksgiving was spent in Disney World, where I ate a calzone. I didn't like that calzone very much. The good thing about last Thanksgiving was that I spent it with Shauna. This time we'll be apart : / At least we're meeting up on Saturday.
On Saturday I get to see Maria Schneider again with Shauna and April and Richie. That should be absolutely fabulous.
Things are really busy but are starting to not be as busy. After work tonight, I'm pretty much done.
iTunes fucked up a purchase of mine. I bought the CSO RESOUND recording of them playing Mahler 3, but it only gave me movements II - V.. I need movements I and VI. YARGH. I emailed them so hopefully they can do something about it, that shit was $15.
Tomorrow is going to be nice : )

Happy
Halloween.
Only two people said Happy Halloween to me today at CVS. We made over $7,000 today so that means we will meet and surpass our goal tomorrow. Fabulous.
Pat's turning me into a nerd because all I do is listen to classical music and read scores. I like being a nerd.
I like watching Mark Summers on Food Network's Unwrapped. It's pretty entertaining.
I'm listening to some chick.. Larkin Grimm. Check her out if you like Vashti Bunyan or Joanna Newsom.
We had one of these at Shauna's when we got home last night. It was hanging out on the wall. Sons of bitches are chilly outside so they're coming in. Well.. as much as I love all of my friends from the earth, these assholes can go fuck themselves. I'm sorry, but nothing should look like that.

TENGO SED
All there is to drink is milk, and I am in need of something more. I want some juice or vitamin water or something. Some iced tea. I need something sweet and delicious.
I want to have a library of scores now. I really like reading scores along with music. I want a big library and seem really pretentious and obnoxious. It would be a lot of fun. I want to get a VW Rabbit.
Sushi was delicious tonight, and I'm very glad I did that other than Pep Band. Maybe Pat and I will go to the deli tomorrow for breakfast, that could be exciting. I'm in the mood to go on a trip somewhere. Like VMEA last year in Norfolk was fun. I'd like to do something like that again.
I wouldn't mind if money was unlimited or if all music was free. I really love the Concertgebouw.
My mom's birthday is tomorrow. Oh yippee. We get to play new music in Wind Symphony. Too bad it's for a fucking graduate fucking conductors fucking concert. "DON'T WORRY EVERYONE, THIS WILL NOT BE SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS EVERY YEAR - WE ARE GOING TO CREATE A PIZZA AND BEER ENSEMBLE FOR AFTER-HOURS PLAYING. WE WON'T TAKE AWAY FROM YOUR TIME." Bullmuthafuckinshit. I am absolutely SICK and absolutely TIRED of our Wind Symphony being used as a tool for graduate conductors. It is not our fault that they don't have an ensemble to conduct themselves. This school wants to become a big name music school? Knock all that shit off then. I didn't come to college to play high school literature. Oooo we played Maslanka, oooo we played hindemith. Yeah. One time. But please, let us keep playing Tichelli and Camphouse and my personal favorite four fucking canadian folk songs. I've had more than enough of it.

Santa Claus '08
So yesterday I went to Cox Farms in Centreville with Shauna and Tim and Lynn. It was a lot of fun and there was a Cornundrom and a Psychic Rooster and a Goat Village. I loved the Goat Village. They ate out of ice cream cones that I held for them to eat out of. We each received a complimentary small pumpkin but also purchased several large pumpkins for carving.
Shauna made a pumpkin full of Stars and it looks really nice and professional. Lynn kind of made a pumpkin that has a Turkishish Flag on it. My pumpkin has this face:
They all look nice with fire in them.
I saw Lewis Black last night with Pat and Kaitlyn. It was extremely entertaining. He yelled about Santa, and that was my favorite part.
Today we are going to go to Wegmans like usual. It will be nice because Wegmans is always a really nice place to go. I'm excited. There is a football game tonight (skinsbrowns) and maybe they won't lose. That would be nice.
I'd vote for Santa if I could.

D.B.I.A.D.
I don't really taste the difference between various milks. 1%, 2%, Skim, Whole - they all seem the same. I grew up on 2%, but since I've been with Shauna I have tasted all the others. If it's cold, it's delicious.
I say it a lot, but I'll say it again. I really wouldn't mind knowing and/or being related to Ben Bailey. He seems very likable and friendly and I wouldn't mind if he was my Uncle or something. I like uncles, I don't really have any.
Lures!
D.B.I.A.D. stands for "Don Bradner Is A Dinosaur." He recently fell and scabbed up his legs - or so he says. Judging by the look and feel of his "scabs," I would not be the least bit surprised if Don Bradner was indeed a Dinosaur.
And if that were the case, I would be extremely jealous and a complete sore-loser. Don't be shy to ask him about his "scabs" and even touch them a little bit. He doesn't mind.

African Scream Contest
So I've been listening to this Afro-Funk stuff from West Africa during the 70's all day today. It's really good and you all should check it out.

Silly Old Bear
So I missed my bus and that's awesome. It passed by super early compared to when it usually does. No keyboarding for me today. I'll catch the next one in half an hour.
Shauna made really good chicken last night. The sauce had mustard in it, but it was good. I usually don't like mustard. The mustard on some sandwich at Panera is good too.

I'm just a little black rain cloud
So it's been a while (cue song). This weekend I was in Pennsylvania and in New York for a little bit. There was a lot of driving and sitting and peeing. I saw a lot of wild turkeys.
That is not my picture but I took some. I don't know why this looks like a link now. I'm not sure what happened. I got my hairs cut and it feels really good now because I'm not so sweaty and greasy. Shauna's mom cuts my hair real good. I have before/after pictures that I'll post at another time. I also took pictures of mushrooms and sheep and chickens.
Halloween is going to be funny.
Honey pot.

Chef Jeff
Orange Pineapple Juice
So I had a pretty wacky dream last night. Shane was in a lot of it. Probably because I was talking to Shane for a while last night. Well anyway I was walking around a school and looking for the bathroom, and everyone knew where it was except me. It was hard to find but eventually I did and I went to the bathroom. There was more but I don't remember. One time I had a dream that Professor Maiello was quoting There Will Be Blood. That was a good dream.

Get Behind Me, Santa!
Christmas really is a nice time of year. I like when there are trees decorated. Real trees are real nice! I like them because they smell nice. Shauna is allergic to trees, but that's okay. Yankee Candle makes some good scents so even if you have a fake tree you can light a candle that smells like a tree so that your house (home) still has the same smell as if your tree was real and not fake. I like the ornament at home that makes a clicking noise. Mom always unplugs it because it makes her insane.
People sometimes complain about getting socks for christmas but I like getting socks for christmas.
That is not one of my socks, I don't have a carpet like that.

Uglify
"Well, there was Mystery --Mystery, ancient and modern, with Seaography: then Drawling--the Drawling-master was an old conger-eel, that used to come once a week: He taught us Drawling, Stretching, and Fainting in Coils."
"What was that like?"
"Well, I can't show it you myself, I'm too stiff. And the Gryphon never learnt it."
"Hadn't time. I went to the Classics master, though. He was an old crab, he was."

Raspberries
That's what these colors remind me of. Raspberries! We used to eat berries a lot last year. Raspberries, Blueberries, Blackberries, Strawberries. They were very delicious and now when eaten remind me of good things.
I like when it gets colder outside. Since it has been cold I haven't worn any flannel.
I'm looking forward to Columbus Day, because we get to see A&R. Haven't seen them in a while so it should be very enjoyable - too bad it's only for half of a day.
Things are really nice and I like them. I can't wait for it to snow. Everything is greater together.
