SAM NEWS *now with 150% more emotional confusion!*
The skinny:
1. I got back from China, and for the first week or so I felt pretty fine. Now the reverse-culture-shock is kicking in. And it's not helping me to be in close quarters somewhat constantly with my family, despite them being great and all of us being in the beautiful Methow. Hopefully I'll find remedy in coming home to Seattle tomorrow, almost a week before my parents do. No, I'm not having any keggers--but if anyone wants to go get a drink, etc., I'd love to meet up with any takers. And I probably should fill up my time well for this week, or else who knows what odd shit my post-china-state will bring about.
2. Got a good microphone for christmas, with USB hook-up. Music will be made. Anybody know if there's an easy way to embed streaming audio to lj? Also: amatuer/clueless-yet-eager musicians wishing to collaborate welcome.
Two years ago I couldn't see myself seriously sitting down and making music and songs. Now I'm still pretty mediocre, but I've made strides. This is one of those things that you can wish you did, or you can just go do it. Getting this microphone was a definine step towards the latter option.
3. I, yeah, I uh... yeah. Nope. Still can't really explain that feeling.
