I'm in Columbia right now, home for Thanksgiving this year instead of Christmas. Not a whole lot has changed, except that my old dogs are now really old. One is 14 and has lost most of her hair; the other is 12 and has cancer. But they're both as sweet as ever. I'd take some pictures and post them, except that my camera is in the luggage that the airline lost. I've had airlines "lose" luggage before, and usually they find it and deliver it really soon after. Today is day two and they still don't know where it is. Ugh.
I went to NYC to play music recently. A friend of mine who writes really good songs and plays around town needed a bass player for a couple of gigs because his regular guy couldn't do it, so I jumped at the chance. I have a couple of cousins who live there; one is 17 and just started college and she's really fucking cool. I stopped seeing my cousins regularly a while back, and before she was always too young for us to really connect. This time we hung out a lot and had a blast; we went to the movies, the big art museum, and she managed to get into three different bars. I was nowhere near as with it as her when I was 17.
In school news, I've gone from philosophy major to liberal arts major to economics major. I totally sold out.
