opportunities to fish

We've rented a cottage for the last week in August, and have also decided to go fishing this weekend. The Boy and I are taking my longtime friend Jonathan, as he's just seen his wife and kids off for a month in Japan.

This is only our third fishing trip this year, and it's been two years since we rented a cottage. Too long for both activities!

For a long time I was very bitter that the people who controlled the means of anybody ever hearing my songs were never gonna play them. They only favored music that I specifically and particularly hated, and I wanted them dead. Suddenly, there was another avenue. I started hearing my stuff coming out of bars and then it started to happen little by little -- a movie song here or a TV ad there.
