Things have been getting better. Instead of working 3 days on, 1 day off (repeat), I'm working 4 days on, 3 days off! It's so much better. I actually have time to do things that I want to. Speaking of things I want to do. . .I'm taking flugel lessons. My teacher is really great. He's played with some amazing musicians & for some reason he likes me! My lesson on Sunday was close to 3 hours long. I think this trumpet thing is going to stick.

Last weekend Ez & I went up to Sedona to see Benny play at the jazz festival up there. It was super nice to see him & Sedona was absolutely gorgeous. I'm hoping that we'll be able to go sometime on one of my long weekends.

We're going back to New York next month. It should be a great trip. Ez is playing at Dizzy's again & I'll be singing. That will be a fun thing to have on the resume. I'm also planning on spending some time with Benny, Ingrid Jensen, and my New York pals. I can't wait to get back to the city.

Anywho, that's 'bout it for right now. Sorry for the lack of legit posts; I just haven't felt like it.

Much love.
