It’s been almost eight months since we moved to Indianapolis, where I had planned on dedicating more of my time to working on my personal projects. I’m pleased to say that I’ve been largely successful in this! I’ve got a lot going on, and it’s sometimes a bit hard to juggle everything. These periodic update [...]
I’ve been playing guitar since around 1991, when I was fourteen years old or so. My first guitar was a cheap, generic-brand acoustic (looked a lot like this Yamaha) that cost me $139 bucks because it had some cracks in the finish, and the action on it was so high that you could’ve mixed the [...]
Quick note: I am not particularly interested in disparaging or insulting anyone, so don’t expect this to be a gossipy, tell-all kind of post. I just wanted to clear things up in case anyone had any questions as to why I’m no longer with CG.

Christmas Eve Dinner: Three dozen oysters, scallops with wine and veggies, a five-pound lobster, clams, snails, langostines, shrimp, salad, half a dozen baguettes, seven types of cheese, fresh fruit, creme anglaise, homemade meringues, candied kumquats, chocolate, coffee, red wine, white wine … and a few things I’m forgetting.

Ah, December … best of the winter months, because sure, it’s freezing and gross out, but at least a huge chunk of us get to huddle together with our families for warmth, drinking lots of booze and feasting on sugary treats while tearing open our many gifts. This year I’ll be doing that in France, [...]
Since this is my blog and I can thus do whatever the hell I want with it, I thought I’d take a few moments to rank my favorite albums of the past ten years. I’m not going to claim that I have the greatest taste in music ever, nor that I’ve listened to every single [...]
Well, the end of September has come and gone, and at last we’ve reached a time when I am in charge of my hair again, after swearing not to touch it (or my sideburns) until 9/30. So naturally on 10/1, the clippers came out. But before that happened, we did a little photo shoot. Then [...]
It’s been a bit since I talked about the various things that I’m doing, so I thought I’d give some updates. It’s been a very busy couple of months since I got to Indy (though I’ve still managed to find time to waste on a replay of Fallout 3!).

I don’t normally post a lot about music on this blog because I’m way too old and boring to be on the cutting edge anymore (if, indeed, I ever was … which is questionable). Also I’m really picky so it’s rare that I find more than one album at a time that I really dig. [...]
Well, we’ve been in Indianapolis for a month now, and what a month it’s been … Let’s do a list of highs and lows, shall we?
Cool
Broad Ripple is an awesome neighborhood with lots of quality restaurants and bars within an easy walk.
We love our house, even tho the air conditioner occasionally pours water all over [...]
