Dad

Deities above, below, and between, I miss my dad.

I miss him for everything he was
And I miss him for everything he wasn't.

He's been dead twenty-five years TODAY and shit still hurts and I'm still learning how to manage with ... Not-him.

Rest in power, Frederic Miles. My love, my learning, my regret, and my stories are all tied to you.

I am content.

I have completed the transcription of my recorder composition.
Granted, it looks like a (very tidy) FIFTH grader hand-wrote it!

but it is all written out, (no thanks to my cat who kept bumping the recorder into my teeth tonight, and who I will go snuggle for her troubles...) and I will take it to choir with me tomorrow and make Mark or Darla play it on the piano so I can hear it, and get corrections for notational form (dynamics particularly) which are simple but I want to write them correctly according to form.

Tomorrow I don't have sub work nor work in the church office, so I will read my three chapters and work on my composition(s) and maybe do some education work on the Kelly website. I don't think I'll get dressed till I have to go to choir. =)

Out of town visitor! (WAAAAY out of town!)

my dear friend Sarah is coming to visit from London for two weeks! She'll be splitting her time between me and her other bestest friend from Aberystwyth, Jenn (who I gather lives in SF!)

OMG this is going to be fun!!

Recommends for nature walks, cool shopping venues or farmers markets, cultural events that are "must-do's" and upcoming social events and invitations to dinner between the 14th and the 30th, hereby being solicited!

She's a foodie, too, so I know I'm taking her to Oliveto's and Luna Ristorante and probably to Greens and Millenium (Unless Jenn takes her out to one of those last two instead... LOL < /feeling competitive>)



Advice? Suggestions? Bueller? Bueller?

Happy Birthday, Scotty.

I love you.
