George, I found a couple of Manhattan Transfer CDs I didn't know: Tonin' and The Spirit of St. Louis.

Should be fun.

Listening to some great Miklos Rozsa.  A few years ago a friend did a private little three CD box set for the three Rozsa conducted Polydor CDs - these have never been issued.   They sound absolutely amazing and I haven't heard these since I got them.  Spectacular really.

I will, of course, try to do two more pages after I shower.  Maybe I'll even let Rozsa play while I do them.  I don't normally ever listen to music when I write, but I will admit that twice I wrote a page for this book whilst music played because I wanted to add something and I happened to be listening to something at the time - it was fine.

Last year, the Symphony kicked out the ushers because too many of them were making noise during the performance, and the acoustics are so good you can hear a pin drop in the place.

Tonight, I had to report on an usher for bringing in a bottle of water (forbidden), who proceeded to crinkle it for far too long.

The same usher later got into a fight with her husband in the theater and another usher reported them.

Trouble is, they know me from ushering and I know they are friends with the CEO of my company. I hope it never gets back to them that I ratted her out.

Oh, oh.  Good vibes they do not find out about it.

When we were in San Antonio I had one of those noisy water bottles next to my bed.  I didn'the realize how loud it crinkled until I needed water during the night ;D

It's now below freezing here and the temperature is only going down from here. Wind is really cold, too.

I am very glad we caught a warm spell.

Finished with my writing - a little over eleven pages.  And about to introduce a new, key character.

The date is settled - February 2.  I haven't heard from one mom who this entire time is the only one who is not communicating well - so, if she hasn't responded by morning I'll use another kid - everyone else is okay with the new date.

Tonight the low temperature is going to be in the twenties, instead of the teens.
