• Kermit the Frog Here…

  Nothing much is going on ’round these parts…

  I had a fantastic time on Tuesday night listening to a bunch of John Williams’ music played live at the Warner Grand Theatre in San Pedro at a rehearsal. It was epic.

  

  It was really helpful for me to be there as a composer, especially after a long day of fighting with my computer so that I could attempt to write in that same genre. It reminded me of WHY I love music, and why I want to be a film composer…errr…am a film composer.

  For real, it was SO inspiring. I need to go back.

  In other news, there was a big debacle about a rug we bought from IKEA that was shedding wool all over our house–we returned it but did not have the receipt, so we only got store credit.  This means that the boys finally got a big dresser for their clothes…and also that I spent about 9 hours last night assembling the darn thing.  I think the name of the dresser was Blerg.

  

  Speaking of 30 Rock, I found this blog on another blog linking me to a blog about how 30 Rock is really just a remake of The Muppet Show. The comparison is actually stunning…

  Work is coming in steadily–really steadily, which is a huge blessing. 
  And I STILL haven’t decided on a business name, but I think I’m just going with something generic and professional like “Semsen Music”

  I know, original, huh?

  Currently writing music for Travelscope (India show) and starting orchestration for a Curious George show on Monday.

  Pressing on…
