Fri Sep 23 14:32:23 PST time!:

So, as I was doing dishes today, I listened to the Skates Sharpened and Repaired Christmas demos, and was really taken back a long way in space and time. My good friends Dave and Crystal are getting married next weekend, and I'm participating in the wedding (I'm the Master of Ceremonies), and I remember being really excited about this music, sitting in my van in the cold outside Dave's apartment, playing it for him. He had helped me record one of the songs, and we had just had a goofy night of hanging out in Duluth. I remember feeling very joyful about the music that I was making, and joyful of the process and the product. Listening to the music now, I understand why it made me feel that way; I'm still proud of it, and I still feel like it captured something then that was unique and simple -- a one of a kind moment, and something that I created that nobody else could have. That music was all recorded, or mostly recorded, 4 years ago, and I have been too busy with other things in the meantime to do anything quite like it. That needs to change.
