Been back in SF for a while. It seems like I never left; I've fallen into the same routine of writing, music practice, dog walking, and occasionally even socializing.

And when I was in Utah, it was like I'd never left there either. I don't think I'm particularly adaptable. It's just that I've spent so much of my life in both places it's like they're some weird extension of each other, even though the two places are nothing alike, nor are the things I do in each.

My new MG effort is going well – I think. It's unlike anything I've written before, so one of these days I'll have to show it to someone and get some objective feedback. I don't often do that, but I'd hate to write the entire thing only to  have people ask "What the hell were you thinking?"

A couple of new songs in the works as well – they're not bad, but they don't have  that instant hook that tells me I have something really good, either. We'll see if they stick.
