Bittersweet 2004

A disadvantage of both being a parent of young kids and making part of my living as a musician is that, while I can make a lot of money and have fun playing music on New Year's Eve (and this year, even eat some truly fabulous food), it's rare that my wife can come along, and I miss seeing my daughters as the clock strikes.

For many reasons, 2003 was both exciting and stressful, because it comprised many changes. I came into last year thinking I knew roughly how it would play out, but I didn't know the half of it. I don't have similar expectations of 2004, so it will be interesting to see where my family is a year from now.

Happy new year. Thank you for reading.
