food politics: how the food industry influences nutrition and health
by marion nestle
it's amazing how much can happen over the course of a couple of weeks. i'll do my best to recap it all succinctly.

first and foremost, my sister gave birth to a healthy baby boy on november 3, which makes me an uncle, and my parents grandparents. i'm not sure which is more strange. i'm confident he'll probably wipe that grumpy look off his face pretty soon. welcome to the world, little man.

also, our plans to visit her in new york over thanksgiving have been finalized, which should be incredibly fun. julie, my parents, and my brother will all be flying up from texas, and i'll get to ride a bus directly from the middle of the umass campus to the middle of times square. also, very strange.

my first round of tests came and went, so now i can relax a little and try to get back to writing and recording and arranging this business. i've spent the last hour killing time between classes by making a ridiculous christmas wishlist, which for one reason or another always ends up being entirely (or almost entirely) musical stuff. and i'm okay with that. here it is, in all it's preposterous glory (and order of awesomeness):

vox ac-30 cc2x (fawn) - electric guitar amp
wurlitzer 200a or rhodes stage/suitcase - electric piano
gibson j-45/j-50/southern jumbo - acoustic guitar
rickenbacker 360/12 (fireglo) - 12-string electric guitar
koss pro-4aa headphones
dunlop ts-1 stereo tremolo - effect pedal
electro-harmonix stereo polychorus - effect pedal
electro-harmonix q-tron+ envelope follower - effect pedal
akg k240s headphones
30 or 60GB apple ipod
dbx 386 - microphone preamp

whew! funfunfun. maybe i can get julie to post a silly-impossible christmas list too. actually, i'd like to see everybody's, so feel free to leave yours in a comment. this could be fun, if not slightly depressing.

cheeses is the reason for the season,
