Spent last night in Phoenix at my mother’s friend Joan’s house. Really, really sweet. She’d just finished watching the basketball game and we caught up on American Idol and Dancing with the Stars (??). Then we talked about music and I sang her couple songs, hindered a bit by my ham and cheese sandwich. (Yes, veggie friends, I learned to eat everything on the road a few years back, and I kind of like it!) My first experience with Joan was a family trip we took up to Santa Barbara and she sang Barbra Streisand songs with gusto. She’s still got it! She’s a total light. It’s always nice to have a “mom” visit when you driving across country.
I left Tuesday because I had to stay in town Monday to pick up my new guitar!! It’s that amazing thing I mentioned a couple weeks back: voyageairguitar.com/launch/. I love it even more than when I tried it out at the party.
And now that I’m getting mobile, I got my first iPhone on Tuesday before I got on the road. It’s pretty amazing. I may even tweet regularly. Follow me: jasonluckett! Ha. I’m so 21st Century!
