Totally Lame

I've been totally lame lately, no excuses. I got the album done, changed schools a few times and am trying to keep my head above water while reading V.S Naipaul, Flann O'Brien, making lesson plans, playing rugby and soccer, preparing for meetings in Tokyo, trying to stay social with my friends, get computer savvy, making more music, いつも日本語を勉強する, writing stories, poems and feeding myself, organising my gaff、家でそうじする...well it's　楽しい　けど、たいへん. It's just started to be Summer here after 6 months of really trying weather.　前の冬はすごい寒かったでしたーもたいへんなー！ It was cold and stuffy all winter long, more so than last year. These days are a welcome break. 今いい天気ですよー夕方まださむいけど！In recent news I went to Omi Maiko, a small spot near 琵琶湖. Bhi me ag seinm ceol with a bunch of bowsies from the Field Irish Music Circle.
My playing has gotten so much better, thanks to the likes of Suzaki, Umi, Chihiro and all the other くわしい folk playing out of the Field.

Putting some links in here which I hope you find interesting:

Anyone in Ireland around June 4th should consider Dweezil and Ahmet Zappa's concert at Vicar Street - more details at www.zappa.com.
