Hey Kirk,

As we say in Spanish mucha suerte! I wish you the very best on your new endeavours. I know what's like to move to a new city, and start a whole new life. And good luck with the recording!

Some people lead such interesting lives.  :-\

*sigh*  I will live vicariously through you Kirk.  Keep us in the loop and let us know how it is going!

But the big question is, who can ever fill your shoes in Beach Blanket Babylon?!  :P

Well, they'll have to cope, I guess.  Kirk, that sounds marvelous.  Good for you for looking ahead and following your heart.  Speaking of which, your guy is cute.  8)

Kirk, thanks so much for letting us know what you're up to instead of just disappearing. Good luck to you! I hope you'll still keep us updated from time to time. (Assuming you don't have problems with your wife card, of course.  ;))

That Courtney.  Always gotta play the wife card. (Okay, getting everybody in on the joke: Once while in the chatroom I was explaining how my "wifi" card had been malfunctioning.  "Wifi" was mistaken for "wife" and the joke was expanded upon.)

Thanks for the good wishes, everybody.  It's funny how it doesn't feel like I'm starting a new life but stepping into the life I always should have had, or the one I've been building towards since day one.  I definitely will keep everyone posted as things progress.  Maybe the cd release party could be a another Brokie event?  Maybe I'll have to do more than one?

 ;) ;D ::) :-*

Hey song and dance man.  You have been missed.  Glad you're still with us. It is a family that needs all its parts.  We can always expand, but it hurts to lose any part of it.  Enjoy mate and thanks for taking us with you!  *MWA*

Man! Kirk. You were telling us about in bits and pieces, and I was really excited for you. To read it all together in one post, I'm just realizing what an amazing road is ahead of you. Your talent is going to win you many fans, and that smile of yours is going to make them fall in love. I can't wait to be at your first concert.

What everybody else said, Kirk.  I'm really glad you are "back," and I have it on my to do list: travel to LA for Kirk's first __(Something)__.

It all sounds so good - the nieces, the shorts, the CD, the ready-made group of warm/cool friends.  I know what you mean about stepping into the life you've been heading towards - my memory of moving to Seattle 13 years ago reads like a smooth script, the way I remember it I stepped into wonderful friendships and exciting work right away.  It felt like this is the right place, after other not so right places.

I really liked your really special guy.  It felt like he trusted himself and comfortably trusted me too, like he wears himself pretty comfortably.  And though I joked about it, I respected his decision to not go see something that he had reason to believe would devastate him while he very much needed to remain functional.  (Like me not going to Alcatraz - I sure didn't reckon on people likening it to an Italian villa!)

Anyway, I love you, I love your musical mom, I love your new life, and I can't wait to plunk down my bucks for your CD.  Do you have a way of sharing a song or two (even rough) via MP3 or sump'n?

P.S. I bet those BBB people can throw one heck of a bon voyage party.

Way to go, Kirk! I'm always impressed with people that follow their dreams. I'm equally as impressed that you're dating Chris Daughtry!
