Other than some stuff I worked on for the James River Ringers, my main musical endeavor the past month or so has been a three-movement suite (written for a contest) that combines handbells with piano. Also, sometime in the last month I was fortunate enough to find a horrible handbell soundfont that I edited to make an okay handbell soundfont, so I have made an mp3 of the first movement of the suite that actually sounds more or less like the piece would sound live. The movement is titled "12"; the more musically astute among you might figure out how that plays into the music.
Speaking of 12: At Benji's 12-month checkup today, he was just over 30" tall, 21 lbs. 11 oz., and now has two vaccinations that neither Kim or I has (chicken pox and Hep A).
i sincerely do not know what you are doing here. are you lost? were you
looking for your delicate calico cat, and did you follow her up two flights of stairs
to this room? she is not here. she was here, yes. we gave her a warm bowl of milk, we talked with her about campaign finance reform for a time, and then she bid us good day. i believe she was
going to the post office two blocks down, but i don't quite recall.
for surely you did
not find your way from prinsiana, the least traveled site on
the internet. if you did, though, perhaps you are looking for humor. perhaps you are looking for profundity. perhaps you are looking for answers.
i'm sorry, but you shall go naught-for-three.
