That fateful day (and more)

I’ve been “on the road” in my current oxymoronic state of content instability for quite some time. My last real stable moment was around this time.

April 2, 2001: “… but while I’m young, with no roots, I’m going to explore and take risks that I won’t be able to take later on in life. I’m going to keep what I’m doing now a secret for now. :)”

And the secret I wasn’t going to share? It’s still a secret. You know why? Because I have no idea! I like to think of what I do as productive unemployment. I’m not really unemployed, but I often tell people I am, especially if I’m not feeling talkative.

In other breaking news, I spent 20 minutes this morning extracting a 1/2 centimeter-long splinter from my left heel. One shouldn’t be able to get splinters from the bedroom floor.

Before splinter extraction, I had wandered over to Arnold and David Katz’s studio to drop off a camera, and ended up spending an hour or so hanging out while they shot a bunch of models for an ad. What I learned: life must be strange for models. But it is nice to be around models sometimes. They’re like, pretty and stuff.

    “Unemployed” or not, it seems like you’ve accomplished quite a lot in the mere three years since you left your cube job. Good for you. :)

    i’ve spent time on the road as a musician before and i must say it’s a wonderful experience.

    was offered a 3-5 month stint at a jazz gig in Bangkok but had to turn it down… because it’s different when you have a family and all. :O(

    i miss being on the road. good for you Eric. :o) i’ll just live vicariously through your travels.

    Eric, have you been to Mongolia or Tibet? BTW, I collect Mozart CD’s and Mozart Piano Quartet KV 478 and KV493 played by Bruno Giuranna and Beaux Arts Trio(Philips 410-391-2) is simply awesome. Enjoy your ‘freedom’ while you can. Regards,

    I am impressed by all you have acomplished. Most of all, at the risk of being presumptuios, I am impressed at how you seem to be living life to it’s fullest. Enjoy every minute…
