Writer. Dog enthusiast. Velociraptor masquerading as a human female.
it's back to work I go! So, after such a wonderful awesome weekend of music and community and fabulous-ness, I spent today catching up on the work I actually get paid to do. That's not a bad thing. It was nice to have some me-time, to put in my earbuds and listen to music on Pandora... Continue Reading →
Yesterday Miners Creek, along with Manny's and State of Maine Cheese Co., organized an event called Local Flavor Fare. The goal was to have local artists, vendors, farmers, and musicians come together in a celebration of local industry and creativity. We had very little budget and very little idea of how things would turn out.... Continue Reading →
Last night we played at the Maine Lobster Festival for what was hopefully the first of many times to come. It was a total blast. Going into the show I had no idea what to expect. Would we have an audience? Would we pull of the fun, energetic vibe we were going for? Would we... Continue Reading →
In a little over three hours I'm going to be in Rockland setting up for a 5:30 show on the North Stage at the Rockland Lobster Festival. This is a big show for us. Not only are we getting paid, but we're getting paid to perform at one of the biggest events in the region.... Continue Reading →
Part of the reason that I haven't been blogging much is that when I'm not working or writing or playing music I'm outside of internet service. For instance July 15th through July 19th I was at Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival in Oak Hill, New York. Grey Fox is like the Woodstock of Bluegrass. You drive... Continue Reading →
I've been feeling shy about my blog lately. I'm not really sure why. There's not really a specific event that triggered this reluctance to share my life on the internet, more like a gradual neglect that's grown steadier and steadier. At first, over the winter, I'd didn't feel like I really had that much to... Continue Reading →
Yesterday, I did something very silly. I traded by black electric bass for a nearly identical bass in purple. I love my new purple bass. I'm having a very difficult time focusing on doing anything resembling actual work because I just want to mess around on my brand new purple bass, whom I've decided to... Continue Reading →
I just got a new job. Funny thing is, it's the same job I've been doing for about a year now. I have the same responsibilities working on the same project, I have the same boss even, only now I technically work for a different company: The Green Building Initiative (GBI). I don't even have...

Before reading this post I recommend you read yesterday's post "Leaving". Three weeks ago I returned to Smith College for the first time in three years. Leading up to the trip, I was nervous. I had butterflies in my stomach for about a week. At night I had stress dreams about going back. In these... Continue Reading →
Three years ago I dropped out of college. Well, technically I didn't drop out, I took an "Extended Medical Leave of Absence". I've always been quick to point out this technicality. "Oh, no, I'm not a college drop out, I'm just on an Extended Medical Leave of Absence." It's taken me three years to come... Continue Reading →
