Vacation, All I Ever Wanted

Things I've learned in 2009:

1) You can only do so much when your creative batteries have been run down...and mine were completely drained by the end of February.

2) Just because you've finished an album in the Spring, doesn't mean you have the energy to release it in the Summer. Or even the Fall.

3) If you've hit a dry spell writing new songs, arranging cover tunes with a band can still be productive.

4) If I'm not actively reading (especially fiction), my ability to write lyrics all but dries up.

5) While Myspace is fading, Facebook is no substitute as far as music is concerned--I haven't bothered creating a music profile, just a personal one.

6) Twitter & Facebook scratched the itch that blogging used to scratch, so that's why I haven't blogged since January.

7) You can actually be on vacation and not even know it...

...well, that vacation is officially over.

I think there's an album that needs to be released.
