a dysfunctional wedding. ok. there's a buffy episode about a dysfunctional wedding. sounds good.
yes...meeting her was very cool. she had cool bouncy blond hair. natalie macmaster=childhood mini-crush. when is the boston folk festival? right now i'm in michigan, so the only folk festival i'm going to is the great lakes folk festival, which is in a week or so (!) and is free and i can't wait. but very far from boston :(
remember to remind me to tell you about the pelli triangle when we meet again in february (so long! *sob*). in the meantime i will try to make sure i remember what it's all about. i leave for williams-mystic on august 23 (getting close! so excited!), and our last day is december 17.
i've found these celtic/old time music sessions in lansing and east lansing that i've been going to, they're really fun. i wish i were more disciplined and practiced more, but playing for two hours twice a week is helpful even by itself. fiona, do you have the "fiddler's fake book" or something like that (i forget if that's the exact title)? i've been told by the people at the sessions that that's the best book to have for going to sessions. oh! and when you're in scotland sometime, try to get to inverness (we took the bus...i think it was 3 or 4 hours, and not too expensive, maybe 20 pounds or so) because that's where the best music is. i'll give you the contact info for the girl i met there who's really friendly and plays the fiddle and knows all the local musicians. she could take you to sessions and stuff.
i'm really excited about next year. we're all doing such cool things, and yes we'll be apart for a long time but then we'll all be back in the spring and at wellesley taking exciting classes and doing cool fiddlehead stuff. and my sister will be applying to colleges and visiting them and all that fun stuff and i'm going to try to convince her to apply to a women's college (she refuses to consider wellesley, but i think mt. holyoke would be almost as good). anyway, i'm thrilled. and i really want it all to start and to be done with michigan and census data already.
