So who am I anyway? That might be a deeper conversation, but I will worry about that later. I actually have a doctorate in a field I am no longer in, trumpet performance. It is what I thought I wanted forever, and then I got the degree, and the job of uni prof, and played principal trumpet and cornet in a variety of ensembles, and was super depressed. So I quit the shit that made me feel awful. I might post about how I tried to decide that later. But I quit uni teaching mid-semester and lessons on the spot. (Sorry to my students, I know that must have sucked balls, but I absolutely had to do that for me. If you don’t understand now, one day you will.) I haven’t touched my trumpet in 7 months at the time of writing this, and I haven’t missed it one bit. I think I was doing it for other people. And I am not doing that shit anymore. I am living my life for me. Living that life for me means starting a family. And I wanted to create this blog to be honest about that journey. I hope you follow along!
