Entry #169

{summary} Greetings! I know I haven't written in about a month; that was due to my travel log program being broken but now it's fixed! Thank you Ben! It's really hot in NYC these days. Yesterday we took a bike ride to Rockaway beach which from our place, is thirty miles! It was very hot but it was a great ride (we ate pizza along the way). Last week we did another show at Dag plaza in front of the waterfall. It was a sweltering hot day. How do I know? I broke a string! My strings were too hot and twang! It popped. I want to say a public,' Hey!' to my brother Loren who lives all the way across the country in Washington state. Check it out; that's my garden! Thanks to my new travel log program I can include little pictures of what I'm talking about. Does anyone know who Ani Difranco is? She's great. Check her out by googling her name. She's having a tendonitis problem due to the fact that she plays SO MUCH GUITAR. She tours constantly and has been on tour for probably 16 years. I feel for her because I have a bit of that same problem myself. You only have two wrists (most of us) so when you get the message from your body that it's time to chill out on whatever you're doing, you have to listen. I haven't been playing as much guitar, only for my shows and practices, and I've given up knitting completely for the time being. This typing thing is still a problem so I don't do it that often. The amazing thing about bodies is that they DO heal up if you give them enough of what they need and stop doing the thing that's damaging them. It kind of took me a long time to really start taking care of my body. I'm really thankful that I've started being healthier though. Bike rides really burn it all right through. Hmm, I just woke up and it seems I don't have a whole lot to say. All of you readers TOTALLY ROCK! Keep it up! ~Jessica~ {extended}
