If anyone ever proposes to you that you should play a bunch of shows late at night as the tail end of your relaxing vacation while having farewell breakfasts and shuttling people to and from the airport and so forth, think about it carefully. I'm not saying don't do it, but, boy am I tired.

Vacation was pretty damn swell and so was the exhausting flurry described above, honestly. Chris came up from Nashville to play with us, got to take him and Jen on whirlwind tour of Mt. Desert, lots of nice, somewhat intense chats, pretty damn swell.

Bit of a slow reentry to work, but honestly, who fucking cares? Band chili/listening party later.

Peretz seems to have really enjoyed what will in all likelihood be his last Maine vacation, can't tell you how much that pleases me.  We're on the couch now, me typing, him cleaning his forepaws.
