For all the references to rockstars…
April 12, 2007
I’m not going to write a full post at the moment cause I’m feeling a bit down, what with all the reminders of my leaving Hamilton (empty shelves surround me) and the gross weather and sadness about the boy.
Anyway, this thought just popped into my head while listening to C.C. Chapman’s Accident Hash.
“I always tell the girls, never take it seriously, if ya never take it seriosuly, ya never get hurt, ya never get hurt, ya always have fun, and if you ever get lonely, just got to the record store and visit your friends.”
This is what podcasting is for me. While the sweet sounds of Lee Coulter and David Ipolito aren’t quite making me feel better, having CC share this music with me makes me feel less alone and a little less scared about the move.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m so excited to be moving to Montreal. I just think it’s really hitting me how much of a change it’s going to be. 5 hour bus ride home as opposed to 45 minutes. Knowing very few people in the city. Not yet knowing what I’m going to be doing. I know it will all be great and I’ll meet people and I’ll get to see John all the time and I’m doing this for me. It’s just… the transition.
Anyway, thanks CC for Accident Hash (http://www.accidenthash.com). And thanks Bill (http://www.deys.ca/) for asking if I’ll be at PAB. I hadn’t really recognized this until today, but this community has offered me so much support and sent me so much love. I really appreciate it. Thank you to everyone who has been helping me get to Montreal.
I will definitely make a post-podcamp nyc post soon. I have a list of things! It’s just on paper and I have studying to do for my last exam tomorrow (eek!) and my dad’s rented a truck to help me move on Friday, so I’m a tad busy. The computer is going to Montreal with the rest of my heavy stuff (desk, books, cds, dishes, shoes, etc). Basically just clothes staying with me for the two weeks following. I’ll be online at work; my boss is intrigued by twitter and facebook so I can get away with those, but I doubt there will be any posting on the blog. So the next time I post might actually be from Montreal.
You guys are my rockstars. Thank you.
