So while I am indeed working on what the previous post committed to, it is nigh impossible record anything proper while on the road. So there a good deal of ideas floating around on my computer, and until I can get some time off of the road to doing something with them, they'll just keep accumulating and floating and rearranging, which is fine.
I've also tinkered around with things here and there. I received my toy music box from Grand Illusions in the mail yesterday, and wanted to make a small wooden enclosure (inspired by dustbreeding.com) for it that would both protect it and significantly amplify the sound (its incredible how much louder it is when its against a good piece of wood). We have been staying at our drummer's house and he had some left over maple from making his drum. I bought some of it off of him and got straight to work. I finished the box later that evening, and I don't think it turned out half bad for being my first ever completely by myself without any outside advise/suggestion/help woodworking project and for my lack of woodworking experience period.
Shortly after I punched out a little adaptation of the song "You Are My Sunshine". I dedicate it to the two most important women in my life... my wonderful mother who I remember singing this to me when I was quite young :-), and to my lovely girlfriend, Bre, who makes the world a brighter place.
It turned out a little more playful than I originally intended. I think I will try to do a more reflective/contemplative take on it later.
