no more little house on the prairie

moving from little town vermont back to a city is like being shot like a rocket from little house on the prairie into the 21st century. we've gone from a summer without cell phone service and internet into a environment of the opposite extreme.

between the 1000s of channels of digital television, the state-of-the-art sound system, and the electric salt and pepper grinders, our heads were spinning upon our first visit to my sister's house. however, the piece de resistance was yet to come. downstairs in the geared-out basement complete with wet bar, my sis unveiled a birthday present she had given to her husband earlier this summer - the video game "rock band." i picked up the drumsticks and all was lost. i didn't re-emerge from that basement until two hours later (and a little bit sweaty, mind you).

it was love at first drum roll.
