For one, i am Fool had a great, upbeat rehearsal last night. That was a relief. Lately, pending rehearsals have left me with ambiguity: Happily anticpating and also dreading rehearsal nights. There have been a lot of last minute cancellations (registers as disappointing) and a lot of rehearsals where nothing seemed to be productive. But, last night was neither. I am uplifted.

For another, I have a gig with Bradshaw Blues tonight, at one of the nicest venues around here, a charming (no other word for it) country inn across the street from a Lake. We played there a few times in the Summer (outdoors) and got the best reception. This is our first indoor gig, and I can only think it will be even better, especially with the Holiday crowd.

What is wrong with both of these exciting things is what makes them exciting:They are both anticipitory, which means I'm future-tripping about them. Thus, anxiety. (Ref: Lao Tsu).

However, while I'm talking about ambiguous anticipation, I might as well indulge in another: I'm really looking forward to my Thanksgiving visit with Joan. No ambiguity there... just that it is snowing here now, and that could make the trip a little dicier.

Have a great Thanksgiving. I love you all, and I'm grateful you're in my life.

PS: I'm posting at the end of the weekend. I didn't bring my computer with me and couldn't post until now. So I'll just say that I underanticipated how much fun I would have this weekend. It was an awesome holiday!
