Day 43: thu, 14 nov 2013. A twofer! First: Kate greets me at 8am with freshly-baked challah, a very delicious payment in exchange for some graphic design help. Also: chilling with friends before a really rousing talk by Joe Finocchiaro.

Day 42: wed, 13 nov 2013. Finishing a long day with a fancy dinner with visiting designer Joe Finocchiaro.

Day 41: tue, 12 nov 2013. Theresa sent me this selfie during Portfolio. I think it summarizes the mood of the day quite nicely.

I had the pleasure of seeing Alasdair Fraser and Natalie Haas play a show this afternoon (10 nov 2013) at Via Vecchia Winery in the brewery district, put on by City Music. I saw these two february 2012 in the same venue and they were great then; the show today was—dare I say—even better. I was once again struck by the freshness and vibrancy of this music. They played a bunch of new tunes from their forthcoming album and it was so exciting to hear new, great things in the Scottish folk idiom presented so fantastically. I wouldn’t complain if these two came to Columbus once a month.
