The buzz

Aha. What has been keeping me lately, eh? I’m reportedly busy enduring a noble position that leaves people to refer to me as a Deputy Chief Adjudicator, which really shouldn’t impress anyone if you only know me too well. For weeks now, I have been training a promising batch of newbie debaters and nothing more can possibly fatten my already (pressumably) fat heart. Today, the kids had a mini-tournament among themselves, and I’m delighted to know that the trainees assigned to my block (since the entire contingent was divided into four houses, under respective trainers - I, being one of them) ranked impressively today. Yihee! Hope they’ll kick more ass tomorrow. Oh, how those kids make me so proud.

In other news, this guy Jaenor has been egging me to session for them. I’m just really, really sad that my commitments tell me that, right at this moment - inasmuch as I’d love to - I simply cannot take him up on his offer. Although, if I should be more honest with myself, I’m not certain how the guy even plays. All he ever tells me is that their band plays party punk, which sounds really new to me. All I can think of really is ala Interpol or Franz Ferdinand…is this it? (Isn’t that post-punk? Which reminds me, you have got to hear Film school!) I’ll concede that they’re good bands but I’ve never played along those lines. Partly why I regret not being able to join in on Jaenor’s jam sessions is probably because the thought of it sounds challenging to me. God, my fingers haven’t worked since I sold my guitar. I think I need this bad…

I hope I have more time in my hands later.
