Birthday party!
Lucky me -- it's my birthday and there is salsa music galore tonight!
Here's the plan:
Savor at El Farol, 8:30-midnight, no cover.
Nosotros at Willee's, 9:30-1, $5
I'll be at El Farol from 8:30-10:30 or so, and then hopping over to Willee's.
If you're in the New Mexico area, come out and join me for a drink and a dance!

anniversary
Almost one year ago, I moved to Santa Fe. It's hard to believe it's already been so long; I feel like I have barely moved yet at the same time I am so far from who I was back then. This feeling of drifting invades me, floating like a piece of drift wood not aiming for any particular shore, but aimlessly bobbing my way down the river. I do not ( Read more... ) -
ready, set, breathe
Where has this summer gone? I feel like it is slithering right out the door and I haven’t even had a chance to get outside and enjoy it. The skies have been largely overcast the past two weeks, the mountains in the distance ever-shifting color due to the constant changes in the light. One minute, rain, next minute, sun, so on and so forth. ( Read more... ) -
