ok, now that the missus is upstaging me with her blogging blizzard, i'm going to have to make a better show of it.

on the art front, i am slogging my way through the B section of the ol record collection, coming up on the Beatles known as the White Album, which someone at Open Studios suggested saving that for the very last.  but of course that will be impossible as my collection is ever growing.  which reminds me that i am picking up a lovely addition to my collection this weekend, courtesy of scott & meredith.  i am quite excited about the prospect.  this leads also to a commission of sorts as i will be drawing a record of their choosing in exchange for some meredith art.  hooray for trading art!

also, hooray for the union of art and music.  all right all right, i know, music is art, so let's the union of visual art with music.  as previously mentioned, i am forging ahead with my 'recording collection' project, i got to spin a short but fun set at noah's party last weekend (thanks to the dj from panama, see above); i'm currently playing my way through my 45 collection with an eye towards a future dj set (should the opportunty arise... i'm thinking of self-appellating: 7-inch Monkey); and i finally laid down a track i am happy with on the ol' 4-track to exchange with logan.  panama here we come!
