Ugh… I think i’m getting the flu.. .. or something like it.. fever, achy, cough, stuffed up.. it’s clouding my mind as well. I’ve been so busy i think i’ve run myself down. This weekend was good down time.. but the germs seemed to be persistent. Drag.. because I have another busy week coming up (and another.. then another.. then another.. )
I was lying in bed working this afternoon when I found this on twitter. My friend Mike’s band just started touring with a bunch of cool new stage effects. The theme is Moire.. the cool pattern you get when you hold tow screens up and miss-align them. … my friends homer, john, colin jarred and I built the long keyboard thingy you see the audience playing here in a gig in NYC last night.it’s is a programmable capacitive touch keyboard thats almost 30 feet long all lit with moire patterns. . it’s really nice to see the crowd digging it..
ok.. gotta get soemthign to eat.. then back to bed.. snif..
nite all, nite sam

i had just the day i needed.. I had several things burning a whole on my calendar today but i didn’t do them.. i couldn’t do them, actually. I was sick..and really in need of sleep so i took the day off. Might sound crazy to ‘take a day off’ on a weekend.. but that’s how it felt. I did almost nothing And it was good !.
We did get out for a short walk on the ice with diane , jane and the dogs. They both had gotten clipped while I was in Nevada.. the single digit weather called for creative measures. Diane offered up two of her vests.. they looked sweet !
not much else happened until this afternoon when we went over to see our friends Tammy and Gary for pizza. It was so nice hanging out with them..
we had lots to talk about , kids, life, zombies, manure, hearts and minds.. the best advice we all got for the evening came from a wrapper on a piece of chocolate..
Had to use that as a blog title,now didn't i ?.. Actually saw a great interview with Cheryl Crowe while waiting for the plane to take off. She was talking about how hard it is to put yourself outt there in the public eye.. For fear of criticism . She said her mantra was dare to suck .. Great words to live by !
Glad to be(almost)home.. Gettingoff plane in BTV now ..man ive missed home.. Both confrere ces were really good.saw old friends,met new people and my talk today didnt suck… But at least i dared to suck..
