2010, the descent

So, 2010 is off to a roaring, and rocky start... After a lovely Christmas season (saw a staging of David Sedaris' "Santaland Diaries" in SF; nice Xmas morning; finally went to the King Tut exhibit at deYoung), then started the year with a wonderful dinner party at our house, on New Year's Day, and some positive looking-ahead. Positive news : my band, Colossal Inertia, is actually gaining some inertia. Had a gig at The Uptown in Oakland on Jan 6th, and more gigs booked in February and March.

The bad news - Bonnie was let go from her job... Very unfortunate, but we've taken a look at our budget & places to cut back, it shouldn't be too drastic on our household finances. On the positive side of that, she's looking at getting into more writing endeavors - freelance, magazine, local, and focusing more on her book projects.

Workwise, it's been pretty quiet since the end of "Carol". I've been working w/ the 'crowds' department. I was in talks to move into the dept for the show, sounds like I'll be staying put, though. Not a big deal, esp. since they exercised some cutbacks in our dept, unfortunate for those let go...

Well, had to get the news of the ups & downs posted, next up, a bit of a diversion - Bonnie & I went to Seattle (a trip we had planned since the New Year) - went to visit some friends we hadn't seen in a while, and tour around the city since we'd heard so much about it. Next time!
