The cemetery was filled with flowers and frisky squirrels today. As the warm spring air loosened my scarf I found myself smiling again and I realized that my late-winter funk has had more to do with late-winter than this beautiful city. I’ve been anxious to leave her lately, in case you haven’t noticed. In fact, I’ve been rather cruel. I’m sorry, New York. I know you’re not to blame for my S.A.D.ness, but unfortunately that’s how these love affairs go sometimes.
Today was perfect – I uncovered a few songs I forgot I wrote last week, I had the privilege of taking class with both Lanny Harrison and Sharon Gannon, and the sun… oh, the sun was just so beautiful. I am full of vitamin D tonight. And very happy that it is April, which is definitely not the cruelest month. I’d say that’s Janbruarch, that long gray sob between the giggles of New Years and April Fools’ Day.
Before the rain washes these happy vitamins away come hear me play with Eric Lichter tomorrow night – click here for info. See you soon!
