Pennsylvania in the Fall
One of the worst parts about having a sales support job is that I get to travel. One of the best parts of having a sales support job is I get to travel.
In this case, I write to you from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania on a cold night. The brilliant light of the full moon is lighting the rooftops, but unfortunately, there are no super heroes or super villains in skin-tight cat burglar outfits to watch. Instead, there's the sound of the couple (at least a couple) in the room next door, and the occasional train whistle. Yes, I said Pennsylvania.
I'm originally from Philadelphia, and while Harrisburg isn't exactly the Philly suburb, it's great to hear the accent and dialect I was born into. A long sandwich isn't a sub here, it's a hoagie. A slice of pizza is a slice of pie, and a soda is a coke, regardless of the brand in the can.
I get to hit Hershey, PA tomorrow, home of the very fun Hershey Park. Of course, just as my last few visits, Hershey Park is closed when I come here, so I'll have to forgo the roller coasters for a few extra hours in the Passat. There are enough stretches of I-270 or route 15 that I can make it a roller coaster ride anyway.
Division is recording guitars and that means it'll be time for vocals soon. We're excited about our progress and I think those of you who have heard us will agree that the latest disc is the most like our live performances. JWP returns to rehearsal this week (full rehearsal that is. D's new baby, my trip to New Orleans and election night kept us from having a full roster the last three weeks.)
Everything else is chugging along as well. The day job is a bit headstrong more than just plain steady. School is tough during the winter months when it's dark so early you feel like a vampire just trying to research. It's just a two-day trip and I'll be back home post-rehearsal tomorrow night. Hopefully I'll see some of you under the same full moon.
One love,
