About: I'm Jen. I live a few miles outside of Boston. I do web work for a non-profit during the day.
This web page has been in all sorts of forms since 1994 when I first wrote HTML in emacs on a Unix terminal at BU. Now I prefer BBEdit on my Mac. I'm never quite sure why I'm doing this

Another Morning
I'm not sure why I'm doing this blog business again, but I've been doing it off and on since 1994 and always end up back here.
It's a new year for me. I turned 31 on the 31st of last month.
I have more grey hairs than I ever. They're silver, actually.
American Music Club are back together and touring again after 10 years. Download Another Morning from their forthcoming record; it's stunning.
Mark Eitzel writes incredibly wordy songs that you find yourself singing along to. They're intense, yet you end up humming them later on like so many more simple songs that don't mean much. Or I do at least.
Wordy in a way like Raymond Carver. Descriptive, but not superfluous.
I aspire to this. I often using far to many words to say very little. So maybe this is an exercise in grammar and brevity. We'll see.
