Another long overdue update. I purchased a new vehicle. It wasn't quite what I had planned to get, but I needed something pretty quickly. It boiled down to not being able to afford what I REALLY wanted, but come on, most everyone's run into that wall.

My brother and I had an interesting chat last night about music and the memories that certain songs/albums/artists conjur up. It's so interesting how a song can instantly remind you of the time you were fishing off of a pier in San Diego, doing "endos" off of a 3 foot cement wall in front of your house ON PURPOSE, or remind you of that special moment with a significant other. Music is such a huge part of my life, as it is with alot of people, that I don't know how i would survive without it at times. Maybe it's because I am a musician that I take music to such great heights when it comes to expressing myself or how it can move me.
