i'm a gee

everyone knows this. i just wanted to make sure your doubts are hereby eliminated. thus...word up.

so i finally found an apartment. it's nice and convenient, and comes with a refrigerator! i'll be in next friday, so ya'll should stop by and bring your favorite bottle. def.

so i'm listening to shostakovich's piano concerto #1 in c minor, op. 35 - 2. lento and i'm all at once jealous of and intimidated by my brother; no, dmitri and i are not related. the thing is, when i first started realizing how talented he was/is, i was way too messed up to admit it, let alone congratulate or encourage him. the reason i'm now fully aware of this, i think, is that it was because of my brother that i even heard of shostakovich, among the veritable cornucopia of music i've picked up from him over the years. and not only can i totally picture him playing this piece, i can see him composing something as or more amazing. hmmm...

i think i need to practice. apples and oranges are drums and piano, but nevertheless i need more fruit in my diet.
