Yep, fall's here

Woke up this morning to 48 degree weather outside and what must've been the thickest fog yet this year. Fortunately, I was able to get to work without any trouble.

Work continues to be really intense (and crazy hours), and I'm really looking forward to Phoenix this weekend.

Last Friday I went to Kennelly Keys in Bellevue Square on a whim, and ended up getting two contemporary/classic rock piano duet scores (The Beatles and another one which I can't remember right now, but might've been West Side Story). In addition, I also found...

Cesar Franck's Prelude, Fugue et Variation (op. 18) for two pianos, with both scores. This is a piece I first heard during Touch 2005, and its haunting melody has stayed with me since - it's not a joyful nor extremely morbid piece, but for some reason its melancholy appeals to me.

I almost literally squeeed and ran all around. :D What's even better is that since it had apparently been special-ordered and had been out for more than a week (so the person who ordered it hadn't come to pick it up), I got the score for free and the store will order another copy if requested by the other person.

Now I just need to find a partner and time to perform this with. :D

I do not like this cold.

Of course, it's cold in Iowa too, so it's not like if I'd stayed there, I would be escaping it.

I need to move to, like, southern California. Except not live -in- a city, just -near-... because SoCal cities are so stereotypically pretentious. O.O

I TAKE THAT BACK. HOLY FUCK, IT'S EIGHTY DEGREES IN IOWA.

Why did I move here?!?!

To be where all the cool people are, right? :D

[kellzilla]

yeah, but why can't the cool people live somewhere that doesn't go below 60?

Because they're too cool for that? :P

But seriously, we have great summers here. :)
