It's Experimental Music night at the library tonight! They start at 7 and are warming up now. I can hear but not see them, and so far it sounds like it will be a good one. I've heard piano, tenor sax, maybe a tuba?, something electronic, something that's maybe plastic tubes, and something that sounds sproingy.
I am missing the kids' chorus concert, but since it's largely white upper-class elementary-school kids singing spirituals, I think I am okay with that. (Although Dillo loves to sing in public, and is adorable doing so.)
Made it through almost the whole trip before my foot started to bug me. It was the trek from work to light rail, to the airport, onto the plane. Hopefully the ride home will be enough rest to rejuvenate it for the trek to my car. Still, I'm really happy. I can start taking walks and work on increasing the distance. I resume karate (no contact for now) next week. Once I get my conditioning back I should be able to test for my Second Degree Brown (then First Degree Brown, then...Black). One step at a time. Literally.
Resuming karate will be awesome, Suzi. And I meant to say, all kinds of ~ma for a good resolution to the other issue.
We got the yearling off the property! Celebrated by going to Magic Fountain. So of course by the time we got our ice cream the sun went behind the clouds and it became freezing cold. But, hey, no more deer eating plants! Totally worth the goosebumps.
Now I just need to assassinate all the groundhogs. (One got hit by a car and I wasn't the least bit sad).
THE PRIMING IS DONE. I REPEAT, THE PRIMING IS DONE!

Now I gotta decide on paint. Want to match close enough to current trim that it isn't noticeable, but it is a creamy white, damnit! I could just yank up a bit of trim that needs repainting and take that in, I guess (eventually, I will repaint all the trim. White. But not any time soon. So close-enough match, please.)
Thanks Amy. I've been on my ass for the better part of 6 months, so getting back to test ready is gonna be a long haul. I'm just glad I can get started.
Back in Denver. It is wet out. Glad my car is right next to the shuttle stop.
Hazzah on the priming!!!!!
yay on priming
unspecific ma going out
should find food and maybe pronouns
I am feeling blurry and don't even know what I just read, other than flea is experimentin with music, possibly by making small white children sing spirituals. I support experiments on children. Maybe not that particular one.
I went and tried on a ton of bras at Nordstrom. None of them fit right. Wtf, body.
So, it's morning here in Lesotho. I could not fall asleep for the life of me last night -- maybe that's jetlag? Or possibly being bored until 3pm and then super-engaged until 8 or so.... Anyway, I set an alarm to wake up this morning. Come to find out, my colleague did not! And took an allergy pill, and overslept! So now I'm waiting on her. Good times.
