Well, you've read the notes, the notes looked back at the year that was, and now it is time for you to post until the looking back cows come home.

I never knew about the Yeston ballet. Interesting.

The alarm rang at 6:00, but I dozed until 6:45, so I am behind my usual schedule today. It6's okay, since I am not going anywhere today.

I was really pleased with my trip to City Center yesterday, and next week I'll start going in more often. My anxieties about making the trip were groundless, so all is good.

DR JohnG, I saw the old hag had recorded the Yeston songs. Like Henry Higgins, I'd rather hear a choir singing flat.

DR vixmom, that was an amazing flashback to 1975. The New York City Gay Men's Chorus went to Europe in the 1980s. I dide not go, but my memory is that in some cities the chorus members were guests of the gay men's chorus in that city. One of the4 cities in which the NYCGMC performed was Cologne.

When the chorus returned to New York, a chorus member, whose name I no longer remember, asked me if I knew a Gary Holt, who was his host in Cologne. Gary had seen my name in the concert program and asked if that person had gone to school with him at Miami University. Well, I had indeed. The last time I had seen Gary was in early June 1971, when he played cello for a wedding song I had written for my roommate's wedding.

I find my life these days pretty unexciting, but I did accomplish this:
I beat prostate cancer
My brothers and I finally dumped that Ohio property
A publisher accepted my book Annabelle & Thatch.

Very tired. Odd night of sleep. The hand was not happy. It was almost too warm. Nothing worked right.
