The Boo Radley Mini-Tour

Well we got back late Monday night and as tired as we are, as much as I damaged my pocketbook, I wish we were still out on the road. It was a blast despite all the bad luck we had. Baltimore never got booked, NYC got canceled, the Philly folks suggested we not come because [...]

Boo Radley/Big Digits Tour East Coast

Alright, I’m super-stressed rustling up last-minute details trying to get out of town. But it’s going to be wonderful. A grand time. If you’re in any of these places, I’ll be there too, rapping my ass off. Plus I’ve got new buttons and shirts for all your gearing needs. Serve it up. Here’s all the [...]

Let’s Catch Up

Merry Christmas! Happy New Year! New Orleans was great. Missed the family a lot. Had a great time with them all. Went by too fast. But as it was the first time I’ve been back since before Katrina, my Mom drove me around all over and I took a bunch of pictures and videos that I’m [...]

Things I Learned This Weekend

Caroline and I went to Denver this weekend for her birthday and on the whole I felt like I planned it really poorly. Here are some reasons why and some ways to ensure that such oversight never happens again. 1. If you’d really like to see a baseball game on what should be a beautiful evening, [...]

Home Sweet Home

After an especially long day of navigating NYC public subways and buses and the disorganized staff at La Guardia, I arrived in Albuquerque last night to a welcoming party including Robert and Molly and, of course, my beautiful wonderful darling Caroline. It’s so nice to see her and be home even without a real home. [...]

Workshop Day 17

I’ve officially hit a wall. Not only am I exhausted and wind-tossed–that’s not exceptionally different from Giverny and Amsterdam, it’s just accumulated much more–but there’s is really very little here to sustain me above that weariness and displacement. What was exciting about being in different places with unique languages and exploring new disciplines have all [...]

Workshop Day 16

I’m on the third floor of a delicious little B&B in a room with one double and one single bed, a shower with an electrically powered super-nozzle, and a great view out the back windows of angle upon angle of roof and chimney. Miles, James, and Ben are staying here as well and welcomed me [...]

Workshop Day 15

Quite the wake up jolt this morning. In the middle of my shower I turned around to see a hand pressed against the glass and a vague face staring at me. I freaked. Pete had come in and I hadn’t noticed; he scared the crap out of me. They had yet another full night. I [...]

Workshop Day 14

The alarm on the TV went off according to plan but Pete hadn’t come home. He probably stayed with Christina as expected. Sounds like they all had another full night on the town. Sorry I missed it. But also not. In keeping with the lodging experience thus far, the hotel restaurant redefined continental breakfast. The waiter [...]

Workshop Day 13

I didn’t get to sleep until 2:30 in the morning. But miraculously, I woke myself up at exactly 5:30, just as I had hoped. Dressed and splashed and brushed, the last unpacked things found their way into nooks and crannies in my suitcase. I carried my luggage downstairs, found in the fridge Pete’s breakfast present [...]
