just a couple random thoughts

current favorite songs to play on my guitar: "a minor incident" by badly drawn boy and "making pies" by patty griffin. i can figure out the chords. i can sing the melodies. i just wish i knew how to make the songs actually sound like the songs. i asked my friends dave and geert (sp?) about this and they said, "just listen to the song." mmmm. i need a little more help than that. some things require helpful hints.

last night, sitting on the deck smoking a cigarette (??) with heather and reb and jeff and diana and a host of others, heather said, "what i wanted to say didn't quite come out right," referring to her toast. i said i thought her toast was great (about how excited she was for them and their adventure and that we'd all meet up again). she said, "what i meant though, is that maybe the house doesn't exist."

this is a probably "you had to be there moment," but i found this to be very profound and i understood it from my heart. we are all connected. with or without house.

lately a lot of people have been commenting on how beautiful my mother is. i have to agree. here's a sweet picture, tho a few years old now, of my mom and sister.
