ARGH I have a gig that night
that's a great one to present at Mills because it's all refracted anecdotes about living in Oakland while teaching at Mills in the late 70's

yes(i'm writing, and what i usually do when writing is put songs/albums/playlists on repeat, and so the music comes in and out of consciousness but at the same time creates this steady non-disruptive rhythm/tone)

I'm guest lecturing Zeena's class on tuesday, so two days of hooky (& three consecutive days of Mills) is probably pushing it. Maybe, though.
