yay, my voice is coming back! it's so nice to be able to basically talk again after this stupid cold. i finished the string part for More Than A Sign today and printed out the score to run it past a friend tomorrow morning for a little critique over good coffee.

other excitement...since i'm spending so much time off the road for the next little bit, and after years of abstaining, i finally gave in and ordered cable tv. i'm tired of watching crappy tv on the 5 channels my cable internet splitter managed to bring in... this is a whole new world of tv for me. for one thing, last time i subscribed to cable, it wasn't digital. now i spend half a show just looking to see what else might be on... what might i be missing??!!

this will NOT stop me from reading some of the highly intellectual books i totally intend to read. definitely not....
