I am in Arizona where it is nice and warm.
My Mother and step-Father needed a handyman so I flew in from NY.
So far I have changed water filters, air filters, installed kitchen cabinet hardware, adjusted the level of the sub woofer(probably the only thing I am truly qualified to do)installed 2 dimmers, mounted a flat panel TV on a bathroom wall, set up a new computer, configured a wireless router and a bunch of other stuff I have already forgotten about. Tomorrow I will continue to do things around the house. I really enjoy it. I especially enjoy being able to do things at any time, day or night, with no fear of annoying the neighbors. Back home in my cubicle of an apartment if I fart loud after 8:00pm the neighbors start banging on the walls. But that's OK cause they are going to get theirs at some point. Somehow. I am now thinking that perhaps I should erase that as it could be misconstrued as a threat of some sort. So fucking what. Sue me. This is the first house my Mom has lived in. She, like myself, has always been an apartment dweller. So the idea that you can make noise at any time of day is a new and exciting concept to her, as it is to me. I have been enjoying my time out here so much that I have extended my stay an extra day. I am not really looking forward to going home to be honest. Being out here is much like being on tour. No worries of paying rent, or buying food or any of the daily crap that occupies a big chunk of my home existence. That's the nice thing about not being home. I can not wait to be back on tour again.
