Had a brilliant Thanksgiving. It's been enormously too long since I posted anything of substance.

I won't claim NaNoWriMo or even Movember. Nor will I lay out any stubbins of stories I may or may not be working on. Nor make up said stubbins in an effort to appear fruitful.

I will, however, tell you all how much I enjoy NPR's Tiny Desk Concerts. Black Dub, Hey Marseilles, Alisa Weilerstein and The Low Anthem are some of my favorites. Performers range from Chilean rappers to classical multi-instrumentalists to, are you ready, Tom Jones himself. Variety is phenomenal. Quality is high, as is video quality. Sometimes I find myself well outside the target audience. But it's always an experience.
