The weather was so nice out today. I've seen the sun almost every day this week. This whole feeling like getting up to face the day and live thing is pretty exciting. I'm really happy because I'm going to Nagoya and then to Osaka this weekend for some music.

I'm doing a fairly dry lesson on President's Day tomorrow. Trying to find ideas on the Internet isn't too fruitful either. Man, if only we could make log cabins out of pretzels and chocolate frosting. If it can't be interesting, it should at least be delicious.

Side note: As it turns out, when Yankee Doodle put a feather in his hat and called it macaroni, he wasn't talking about noodles. He was referring to a fancy Italian clothing style popular in Britain at the time, and by doing so, proclaiming himself proud to be an idiot because England thought American was full of bumpkins...................good thing that was the past and things are completely different now. Look at the cow!

Okay, okay, I know. Just one more. Saw this in the supermarket.
