Merry Christmas, Diana

I knew what and why, but I didn't know when, how, or where. I wasn't nervous. The experience was surreal and life changing. It wasn't the place or time that was important. It was all the events and feelings leading up to it. The circumstances felt right... again not necessarily because of the time or place, but more because of our circumstances. We were alone (for the most part) and all of the other restaurants were closed, but that didn't seem to matter because we were together and can handle anything... together. We braved the birth of our first child together without being married... easily the scariest thing for me and anyone who hasn't been through it before.

You and Elek are THE best thing that has EVER happened to me. Without both of you, I would be lost. You give me strength and encouragement to do things I never thought I could do. It is hard to believe that this is our third Christmas together, though I couldn't imagine it any other way. Your aura is unlike anyone else's I've ever seen and I knew you were special from the start. I knew that you had so much to teach me.. and now we have a little one teaching us both a new meaning of love, understanding, persistence, endurance, and happiness to name a few. You made all of this possible and for that I am truly grateful. I hope your Christmas is relaxing and better than any before it. With love,

Peter

Some Music

I thought I'd post some music for your enjoyment. The first song is geek synth which I've been missing lately.
Chairs in the Arno - Size Thirty

For the next song.. just think Bobby McFarin + Sliding Guitar + Organ + low fi pop. I know.. ridiculous.
Benji Cossa - Sunset

Back later with more.

M.I.A. - Paper Planes

Quarterlife

Quarterlife is the name of a show that is directed by Marshall Herkovitz who produced "My So Called Life". I must say I went from liking it (the first several episodes) to not being so sure, then to liking it again. It has been picked up by NBC apparently.. I hope they don't screw it up. Hope you enjoy.

Lykke Li - Little Bit

What do you do?

What do you do when your life goes through a transition and you wake up one day, nothing is the same, and you wonder what just happened? When going out to bars was 'the thing' to do on the weekend. How do you transition to something more wholesome? It's inevitable and deep down you know it, though you don't know how to transition slowly. All is not gone or lost, actually quite the opposite. You are starting to really live. Priorities change and it will be wonderful, but what to do in the meantime?
