		<title>Song in Your Box, Week Forty-Three</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I believe I'm starting the countdown. You know like the New Year's Eve countdown that happens 10 seconds to midnight except for I'M doing 10 weeks/songs to the end of MY year. And after this week it's actually 9. So OK, say it with me now, "NINE!"]]></description>

		<title>Song in Your Box, Week Forty-Two</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I know I say this every time but I seriously cannot believe that "Song in Your Box" is at week 42! That's 10 more songs. It's kind of amazing for many reasons. One is that time goes by so effing fast and another is that when you start a project like this, you never really think the day will come that it's finished. It's like "yeah yeah, in far away land, I'll have 52 new songs". Well far away land is now 10 weeks away. I'm also starting to wonder what the hell I'm going to do when it's finished! But that's a story for another time.]]></description>

Aside from getting back in the grind of the city after vacation, it was mine and my roomie/friend (I like to say roomfriend) Kevin's birthday celebration on Saturday night. (My bday is on Wednesday)]]></description>

		<title>Song in Your Box, Week Thirty-Eight</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So I was recording the video for this song and planning for my trip to LA tomorrow when I heard about the explosions during the Boston marathon. There is nothing really to say, is there? It's all been said. It's all so very sad. It's just beyond comprehension.

		<title>Song in Your Box, Week Thirty-Seven</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Finally, it's really beginning to feel like spring in New York. It's an exciting time. Flowers are in bloom, winter coats are put away (although I hope I didn't jinx it and next week is 30 degrees again), and love is in the air.]]></description>

		<title>Song in Your Box, Week Thirty-Six</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I remember specifically at the beginning of this project wondering what I would feel like around week 36. It's kind of in the thick-of it, you know? Not quite 3 quarters through but past the half -way mark.

What I'm feeling is that it's just turned into a part of my life. I love it. I hate it (sometimes). But mostly I love it and I can't imagine what I'd be doing with my time if I wasn't doing it. I realize that nothing compares to the feeling of writing a song you love. Seriously, ah-maze-ing. And you have to get through quite a bit that you're not so crazy about to get to the great ones but it's always worth it. In other words, hard work, pays off!:)]]></description>

		<title>Song in Your Box, Week Thirty-Five</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am starting to realize what they mean when they say New York is the city that never sleeps. I feel like I'm wasting time when I sleep-I could be getting so much stuff done:)

But there is definitely an energy to this city that is both exhilarating and overwhelming. I am trying to find the sweet balance between the two.]]></description>

		<title>Song in Your Box, Week Thirty-Four</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the things I love about song-writing is it allows you to express yourself in a way that maybe you wouldn't be able to while just speaking. And sometimes when you can't find the "right words" in a song, it doesn't really matter because there are no right words. It's just a feeling. A sentiment. An idea.]]></description>
