Reasons why I love having music as my job:

1. I love Mondays. Most people dread them. Monday is my day off, so I look forward to it every week. Yesterday I slept in, went out for lunch, did a little more unpacking, did a few loads of laundry, went for a run, and watched some episodes of West Wing.

2. I get to wake up and go for a jog whenever I want because I can stay and work as late as I want. Today that included finishing my jog on the beach (see previous picture).

3. Singing literally pays my rent. Fortunately, I don’t mind living in a small space, which allows me to actually sing for my supper. Saturday night was one of those nights. I played at the Bethlehem Coffee House, had a great set, had a lot of fun, met some new people, saw some old friends, and sold a bunch of albums.

I feel very lucky, blessed, fortunate, whatever you would like to call it to live the life that I have, and I am so grateful that this is what I get to do. Thanks to people like you who continue to support me by coming to shows and buying albums I get to do what I love. For that I cannot thank you enough. Have a great day.
