Bummer possibility

As I'd mentioned earlier, I'd invited Guitar Pastor to join my non-existent band. We get along well, have overlapping musical tastes, and he has good music skills. Plus, we're about the same age and the same stage of life (married; have a young kid; between family and work, can't really take six months off to do a world tour, so would need to focus on being a local band).

Mentioned this to The Lady last night, and she pointed out that as a pastor, he's likely to get transferred to another church sooner or later -- probably ''sooner'', given his junior status.

So today, after the gig, I asked him the likelihood of him still being here six months from now. He said not very high. This is actually the time of year when they tell him Should He Stay or Should He Go, so he's waiting for the word.

Well, poo. My only music buddy in this hemisphere, and he's likely to be sent away.

But, we'll see how things turn out.

Hey dude. Sorry I haven't been by the blog. You had said in one of your early e-mails that you had a blog that you didn't update very frequently so It hought that maybe it wasn't something you were into.

Glad to see you are staying with the music. Get that dissertation done and you may feel like you have a whole new world available to you.

I've got a sweet little girl like that at home too and I can relate to your "good to be a dad" story.

Cheers,

Tom
