We hold it all loosely, a moment at a time, which is all we have anyway.
36 Questions? Maybe sometime
Trying to find the spot of positive contribution to the world, taking care of myself, and being authentic all the while.
Working on myself. As unflinchingly as I can. And being as kind to myself as I can when I do flinch.
Keeping connected to my teenage as much as I can.
Spending time with friends, having good conversations, playing board games, seeing movies, reading, walking. (Some of these less than others during pandemic distancing.)
Teaching a great non-traditional piano method, and developing supplemental curriculum content for the method. (All online during pandemic distancing.)
Performing and teaching as musical director in improvisational theatre. (Yup, all online during pandemic distancing.)
Playing live by-request piano karaoke sing-alongs. (Kinda sorta sometimes during pandemic distancing.)
Subcontracting for a professional ghostwriter, which I guess makes me a professional ghostwriter, too.
Legally separated since 20, including language that explicitly provides for our freedom to pursue other relationships, which, surprising to me, is actually not standard in most separation agreements. The divorce paperwork is an inevitable paperwork formality.
Believe it's crucial to have certain key things in common and that, beyond those things, it's often great to be different, with contrasts and and complementarities so we get some variety-spice-of-life stuff going on.
