Swine Flu Blues 04/27/2009
 

This weekend was a bit rough on my wife and I.  The boys are sick and Coleman puked at Trader Joes on Saturday.  Thanks to the Swine Flu panic-strickened public, the looks we got were pretty much murderous.  Never trust a scared mob.  I was ready for them with my pitch fork so I wasn't too worried.

The weekend progressed with fevers and a gnarly whooping cough coming from the baby. 

Needless to say, there was no music making activities...except for on Thursday night:

new piece, two versions being produced at once.  It started out as a string piece for a part of the movie I'm working on.  That went where I wanted it to so I saved it.  I wanted to take it somewhere else though too, so I SAVE AS'ed and took it to another place entirely. 

I spent a lot of time on a four part string movement in 3/4 time and I had a lot of fun with that and am pleased with the result.  I felt like a "real" composer.  Then I added the beat.  I'm looking forward to getting back on it but we'll see if we all have Swine Flu or not.  We're going to the doctor today.
