Annual Suffering

Getting on a train up to Connecticut, and then driving up to Northern Siberia, New York -- i.e., west of Rochester -- tomorrow. It's going to be a howling frozen hell with lots of boredom thrown in, and too many calories. As an exercise, I'm going to take a picture of something on the way into Grand Central and post it from the moving train, using the AT&T Air Card.

Ah, 'tis the season to be jolly!

You *have* to spend time with friends and family? Cry me a river. Sometimes you take the whole "X-Factor malcontent" thing a little too seriously. No one will think any less of you if you act a little more happy, and a little less "on the verge of a nervous breakdown."

I hear it on good authority Jeff is going to be visited by three ghosts sometime in the wee hours of the 25th.

To be played by Eddie Murphy, Will Smith, and Scarlet Johansson.

'Annual Suffering' for whoever Wells is going to visit, too, I suspect. ;-)

Brockport? Batavia? Greece? Jeff, the world is your oyster! Perhaps check out the great House of Guitars at 645 Titus Ave.? Get yourself a Garbage Plate from Nick Tahou's?

One plus -- for a town its size, Rochester has a very good music scene. Not New York good, of course, but better than you might expect.

Took my cousin 6 hours to get from New York to Albany yesterday by train, weather up there sounds nuts. Hope you have better luck.

I've asked a few times, but here goes again?

Did Jeff officially move to New York? Or does he just winter there? I thought he was L.A.-based but now seems he's been on the East Coast for months.

Ever wonder if Jeff's relations read this blog?

They must appreciate knowing how much Jeff
enjoys their hospitality.

God bless us, one and all.

LexG, IIRC he said he was relocating to NYC for six months, maybe more, to be closer to his family. He moved here just after election day.

We have family and a friend arriving tomorrow for one full, cheerful house. I pity Jeff and his grouchy holiday "requirements."

Because, it's worst to be alone. And if you disagree, then keep to yourself and go see a movie instead of complaining about it. Of course, the cinemas this week will be filled with pregnant Hispanics I hear...

And Scarlet will be singing Tom Waits songs.
