Home

I am home.

Edmonton. Home? These two words are finally a fit. God it's nice to have a home again. Cozy, bare feet on the kitchen floor, a bathtub that does not need 10 min of elbow grease before entry, clothes that are selected from a hanger not rumpled from a suitcase. Home :)

Its been a long winter, challenging, frustrating, filled with laughs and lows. I have been moody and brooding which makes me impossible to be around (sorry guys).... but creative, man, has this been a year of creative burst.

Last night was a late one. Got home from playing a shared stage with Chris Wynters (Captain Tractor) at O'Byrnes on Whyte Ave (thanks to everyone who made it out). Sat up eating toast and drinking white wine from the bottle (classy me) by the blue flicker of the tv. Happy is the only word I could use to describe my little late night indulgence/wind down. One of those gorgeous simple moments that catch you off guard, that you want grasp with two hands, but if you give it too much focus, it slips away. So alone I sat happy, ignoring the fact I was happy :)

Next week I have a gig at Steeps Tea here in Edmonton. Hope to see you there.
