Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

A few days ago, I wanted to listed to the CD from BK's most recent Indiegogo campaign, "Frank Sinatra conducts Tone Poems of Color."  I know I bought it, but I couldn't find it. :-\

I slept well unti 4:30 or so. It was so warm in the apartment that I could not sleep. I lay in bed for about an hour, listening to the rain hit the window, then got up.

This morning I have a zoom meeting about the ballet from 10:00 to noon with my employers. We will go through the music I've been sent, the plot of the ballet, etc. I look forward to it.

A friend sent us a "vegan, gluten-free" carrot cake. I wonder what's in it?

We have a small Soleri bell hanging outside our kitchen window that only jingles when the wind is blowing.  It’s in overdrive this morning.
