If you walk by Sierra and say "How're you doing?" then damn it, you'd better stick around for the answer! :D

about me
Another BiPolyPagan chick, seriously entrenched in the computer industry to the point where I wouldn't know what I would do with myself without them, musician playing bass for a local band, living my life to the fullest. I love talking with intelligent geeky people and hanging out with my friends over games or coffee when I'm not busy playing music.

Once again, you are jealous. This poker set is seriously a work of art, and I'm really glad I got it.

2008 as a year left a lot to be desired for many of us. For my part, it certainly had more ups & downs than I'm used to in the past few years, but I'd rather not dwell on the problems it had, and focus instead on the good parts.



My beloved [info]metaphorge was with me through the roughest times, and we've grown a lot as a couple over the past year. I am forever grateful to him for how much he has helped me grow as a person, and how wonderfully he cares for me. He's also incorporated me into his social life a fair bit, so I find myself doing a lot of things in the bay area that I just don't have the opportunity to do here in Sacramento.



At work, I felt I finally had a chance to really shine, assisted by the decision to have us have a local manager (rather than one halfway across the country). Having a manager locally put him in a much better position to witness where my strengths are.



In the band... we haven't been very visible this year, but at the same time some peculiar oddities have been popping up, such as us showing up at #8 on Brazilian pop charts, and finding out that in all the time a particular listener has been tracking every song Radio KoL has played (about two years now), we've come out at #12, just ahead of Led Zepplin. Meanwhile, we've been hard at work on our next album, wanting to make sure it's just right before we release it. You can bet that while we haven't played a lot of live shows, we've been hard at work on this thing. It's more a collaborative effort than any of our previous albums as well, making for a rather different sound than anything we've previously released.



Being a Radio KoL DJ has been fantastic. I'm told every show that my music and my talking are both appreciated, and some recent weekly additions (story time and a particular game that takes up a full 3-hour show) seem to be especially enjoyed. Every once in a while I'm the recipient of comments that have a slight stalker smell to them, but I realize that if I'm going to be a somewhat racy female radio personality who also happens to play bass in a well-liked band, that kind of comes with the territory.



Finally, outside of my own life, but likely making a difference to it nonetheless... we elected Barak Obama for president. No, I don't think he's going to fix everything that's wrong with the world; he's an imperfect human being just like the rest of us, but it's definitely a step in the right direction.



Here's to hoping that 2009 will continue with the good things, and even improve on them, while having fewer rough spots.

PSA
The TKT Tour Page now has an RSS feed.



Many thanks to [info]caphector for his assistance in making the software my bitch.



Not that we've got anything booked in upcoming months, but those of you bitching about not getting notice of gigs right away now have no excuse. ;)
