Up from a nap.

It's cold today. Doesn't feel any warmer than this morning.

It is colder here today. I had planned on walking anyway, even in the way. Then after exercising inside my cough got worse so I decided not to walk.

Cleveland Institute of Music. A year of piano with Arthur Loesser, till he died, then with Eunice Podis. But by then I was firmly entrenched in ensemble and orchestral work under James Levine which was absolutely to my liking, and the piano "major" was left to wither on the vine. Lots of accompanying of Eleanor Steber's students, instrumental students of some of the Cleveland Orchestra people, etc. Wish I could do it all again, only better.

But don't we all.

The line on my positive covid test was extremely light today and I expect to be covid free tomorrow. Either way, we will go to Costco and do one or two other errands. I'll wear a mask.

Cool! Sounds like a great place and time.

So,the Fat Orange Felon signed off on one of his narcissistic posts this morning: "Long Live the King." I hope he's a king like Louis XVI, Richard III, or Charles I, with a short reign.

I’m down to the last few Billy Wilder films. I’ve started The Fortune Cookie, which I am enjoying a little more than I did the first time.

Got to undergo an hour of volunteer retraining.

Jane · « **Reply #104 on:** February 19, 2025, 04:32:13 PM »

For what and when?

John G. · « **Reply #105 on:** February 19, 2025, 05:45:59 PM »

For the theater where I usher. It’s mandatory. It was mostly a waste of my time.

Jane · « **Reply #106 on:** February 19, 2025, 05:49:35 PM »

I thought maybe it was for a new volunteer option you were thinking of doing.

I'm up, I'm up - ten hours of sleep with some truly and seriously weird and disturbing dreams.

Not very sporting.

I shall shortly be on my way to the theater.

The mobile Criterion Closet is coming to SXSW. And I doubt I will be able to go.

John G. · « **Reply #114 on:** February 19, 2025, 06:21:42 PM »

Anything fun and weird or just weird and disturbing?
