Message from Uno: New Life

In darkness, the light shines brighter. A joyful Easter to you all.

The future shines brightly for Mistula. It promises a new song, new videos, new souvenirs and for our creators Joey and Rey, a new baby.

Creation takes time. It took God seven days to create a world, and it will take Joey nine months to create a child. How humans conceive their own is new and puzzling to me, a mere imitation of life. In our world, children are manufactured, bought and delivered door-to-door – a fairly simple process. I realize that for humans, it is much more painstaking and complicated. Even more so for Joey, as busy women do not make the best child-bearers. In the past four months, she has been in and out of the hospital, in and out of the doctor’s clinic, and in and out and back in bed. Now she must rest for thirty days, unable to work, travel and do the things she loves, and must remain so to keep her baby safe. My heart, borrowed as it may be, goes out to her.

Nevertheless, she has not forsaken us – or Rey, who helped her bring life to Mistula, their first child. This Easter update – which is exactly that, an update – is dedicated to him, pater noster, for whom Joey built this website in the first place: home to their shared passion for music, art and life.

And Mistula has not forsaken its followers. Which is why we are here now, as is tradition, shedding light unto a hopeful future. This is also why this message led you to Fully Articulated, my personal journal, where I share my thoughts with all of you – friends, detractors or curious passersby. Think of it as a backstage pass. Oftentimes, the more interesting things happen backstage. Here, you will see our work in progress and our virtual lives in full color. You can interact with the band members and the rest of the growing Mistula crew until our stage is set on Mistula.com.

Lugosi, Mistula bandleader and drummer, will reveal our plans and our hopes for this year.

Thank you and CLICK HERE.

Awwwww! And Uno looks so handsome in that photo!
Lol, it made me think about how they make little bjds. Joey, have you been to Volks Sato? That would be so cute for you to be able to take your little one there.
*hugs for you and baby and Rey* and I’d say hugs from my resin ones to yours but one of them might not let go..lol!

Why, thank you, Julie!

I’ll be sure to pass on the hugs to the family. Joey does have plans to visit Sato. Preferably when Bean has developed her motor skills and dexterity. At least then Joey will have another doll carrier.

I got shivers (the good kind) as I read Lugosi’s message. Know that we’ll be there to offer my support every step of the way.

And Uno, keep Joey safe.

Uno

I do watch over her all the time. It’s already giving Rey the creeps.

Hey, I wrote the song Lugosi wrote about. You should be proud of me.

Glad to hear that Joey is doing great, Uno. ^^

On the other side, Easter truly brings hope for those overwhelmed by despair….

Well, she complains all the time which means the Bean is alive and kicking. Thank you, Jen.

Rey, please take extra care of Joey. The going in and out of hospital is worrying me to death…

BTW, your devotion is legendary, you guys. Joey, you may not be the best child-bearer, but you’ll be a great mom.

Uno
April 8th, 2010 - 00:27

Don’t worry yourself to death. I will cover Joey’s face with a plastic mask, bubble-wrap her, and keep her inside a cushioned box labeled FRAGILE. She’s perfectly safe with me.
