Okay, so Alan and I are no longer together. We've not been together for about 2 weeks. I guess things are better. I know I'm happier. Talia and I are still living together and I couldn't be happier about that either! Talia got a dog. Bailey; she's part blue heeler and part beagle. She's SO adorable! I'd like to have another one just like her but don't want to have to give another 300 for a pet deposit! This shit's expensive but I'm such a bog whore I'd probably do it anyways. School is going pretty well. My piano player for my recital KICKS BUTT! I have never seen ANYONE play as good as he does. He REALLY knows what he's doing on the piano. I wish I had half his talent. I could really play Piano then! I was thinking about moving with my neighbors to San Francisco and finding a teaching job there, but I think I might stay up here and try to start a string program up here. This area is growing SO MUCH they need to accommodate to that group of people. Well, it's REALLY late. I need to get to bed. I promise I'll write more for the people who are reading... if there are any. :o)
