Making Things Up

Time for an update on the goings on here at Weasel Manor. Weird happenings around here have prevented me from making a whole lot of progress on the creative front, but a visit from J. King last week enabled me to decide once and for all on the fourteen songs that will make up my next record (though it may end up only being twelve). Joe helped me finish a song I'd been wrestling with for almost a year and gave the thumbs up or down on the rest of them. Now I just have to do my bedroom 4-track demos and I'll be all set.

As for writing, it's going more slowly than you can imagine, though I am 1/3 of the way through the book. The rest of it will be less difficult to write, or at least that's what I keep telling myself. I have a couple of other ideas rattling around in the old bean but I'm trying to keep them on hold until I finish the book, which at this rate will be in a couple of years.

I've also been cooking a lot more than usual. After having not made my homemade pan pizza for many moons, I gave it a shot using soy cheese instead of regular mozzarella and it turned out pretty great:

(Picture deleted. It really was a great pizza but the picture made it look nasty.)

I'll have more info soon.
