a coherent collection of random statements regarding God, words and tunes

A longer, deeper breath... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand HOLD....

So yes, worst-case scenario, at least short-term, but hopefully with long-term benefits.

It's been decided to release all six seasons of Growing Out in June 2010, rather than 2 this August / 2 in December / 2 next July. Which means I've gone from mere weeks away for passing out copies to another year. The idea being more marketing money can get put behind it, all 6 quarters are more likely to sell consistently rather than in pieces, etc. All valid reasons. But none that weren't on the table when this was all first decided several months back. So it's a bit frustrating at the moment. But again, hopefully will result in bigger and better things in the meantime.

And I still have lessons to write. And they'll get written. And, God willing, they'll keep getting better. This kind of took the wind out of me after finally hitting a groove again, but I took a day off, regrouped (no pun intended), and once more into the breach it is. I know I'm supposed to be doing this, no matter what happens. There is a good reason for all of it.

So, anyway. Next time, hopefully: St. Vincent's Actor, Steve Earle's Townes, and let's see who's right about this Green Day album, 'cause the reactions have flown wildly in both directions (which, frankly, makes me suspect I'll like it a lot).

Have you exhaled yet?

And- what did you think of the Fooddrive CD, apart from the
abysmal sound quality?

And- five great Kinks songs the world seems to have forgotten:

Property
Wonderboy
God's Children
Killer's Eyes
Heart of Gold

Yo Rick: Respectively: 1) Yeah; I'm largely over myself. Let's just see where it all goes; 2) Well, it's hard to get "apart from the
abysmal sound quality," but I guess the good news is that I can hear less mistakes that way :) ; 3) Only five? But considering how popular the album was, "Property" is particularly unheralded. Give that criteria, you'd have to throw "Art Lover" on there, too.

BTW, I keep forgetting to mention this, but I have no way of contacting Jason & Annette, so you need to make that happen. Or just send them my info.
