Despite my week “off”, I’ve been as busy as ever, and have neglected blogging in favor of building amd4.net. However, last night we went to Northampton to document Ry’s show at the Iron Horse with Amber Rubarth — I filmed (hopefully to be released as bonus material for his upcoming live disc), DD took photos:

I purposely did not photograph the cup I made because of its atrocious glaze job. Seriously, a toddler could have done better. But I did make these mildly successfully:

Take a day this week to notice what you don’t use, but don’t send it to a
landfill! Clean out your space, and prevent someone from purchasing that
same thing anew. Start cleaning early for a big move so you don’t get
stressed later on. Bring your cluttering clothes, books, toys, CDs. DVDs,
kitchen and household appliances, toys, canned and dry food, TVs.

partake in the used goods.

*Leftover items will be donated
*Please do not bring fax machines, monitors, or other large and heavy items.

Because I’m a little too busy right now with school and all, but I don’t want to neglect you, here’s two of my favorite things: 1) the full theme song from Cheers, which I committed to memory after it aired in 1990, and 2) The Kelly Song, also from Cheers, which I also committed to memory around the age of twelve. Don’t thank me. I do this for you.

In a later post I will discuss my impending 6-week trip to rural Peru to make a documentary and my impending marriage. But for now, cheers:

Good job, Mr. L.! (and good job me for using abbreviations to protect the innocent)
