I found my neighbor's 'stolen' recycling can. Just a few houses down, owner confused by the doubling of cans. Returned!
I managed something right this week.

I have Cook's Illustrated's "French Toast Casserole" made with matzo in the fridge getting ready to be baked in the morning. I probably shouldn't have poured myself this second glass of wine, but I'm going to finish it and then go to bed. Definitely not having 4.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Ha, Matt, the Preds will totally figure into plans! It's such an interesting question, really. Nashville is obviously the clear choice for songwriting. But, Nashville is also a much tower town in which to build the rest of your music living. I can't teach there, or do session work, or the recording studio. I can't play out. My chops just aren't up to par for a town like that. Whereas possibly a Memphis would be far out enough to where I could do some of that stuff to pay the bills while I work toward the songwriting goals. Plus it's cheaper. The question would be, would it be close enough to Nashville, then, that I could do the meetings and networking and general pounding the pavement by traveling in frequently? I don't know the answer to that.
Mystery solved, sarameg! I say you call that good work and rest on your laurels.
Hope you get to feeling better, dcp. The SO has a cold right now, so I feel doubly guilty for gallivanting off to LA. But I offered to stay and he wouldn't let me. He's in the Valley for training all week next week anyway, so hopefully he'll feel better and then he can chill some. But I don't seem to have caught it before my trip, hallelujah, thank you swine flu super immunity!

Well, Memphis to Nashville tends to be a 4 hour drive each way. It's do-able on occasion, but I wouldn't want to make it a regular job feature. Just 90 minutes each way was wearying and ate up a huge chunk of my free time when I was doing Memphis to Jonesboro.
On the plus side for Memphis, my impression is the food scene is better (though perhaps not healthier) than Nashville.

Despite a light rain to tamp the pollen down, sneezed my way to and fro market.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Who thought it was a good idea to have an uncomfortable medical thing yesterday and a teeth cleaning this morning? NOT ME. And yet here I am.

Unpleasantness over in a short period?
