I could get used to this life. Sleep til noon, teach a coupla lessons, tune a piano here and there, work on my music the rest of the time. The money's not as good as Madison Avenue, but fuck it. And I don't have to get all slicked up and say "surely" and wear a lab coat. Yes.

well, there's no way I'd be able to move til next Spring at the earliest.
