B-Ware the B-Man
March 15th, 2005
If I haven’t updated this blog, as my Grandmother has duly pointed out, it is because my band director has been keeping his ever increasing load of practices. First the Stage band had to practice non-stop for the dance. Then we had to make a recording to send to florida. Next we’ll be working on the provincial music festival in April, our trip in May, and university convocation in June. Lavinia, whose house I stayed in while my parents went to Hawaii, put it very well when I’d come home from school at seven thirty in the evening: “And how is that crazy band-man today? Has he had enough coffee?” she’d say in her thick Romanian accent.
Now I’m in Florida, far away from anything to do with band. Even a few hours before our I had to catch a bus to Halifax Airport I went to school to do the final recording. My grandmother and mother have a few concerts and activities planned, but to be honest, I’d rather just sit outside in the warm air next to the pool and read. I’ll need to have my energy: a few days before we leave my aunt Marcia and her family are coming. I anticipate chaos.
