a cheerful note
Oct. 16th, 2005 01:17 amTo my home friends, because I don't talk to you often enough at all:
I like updating when cheerful. So I might as well, despite my aversion to the "diary" idea.
I just spent one of the longest, most varied days I've had here. I went to a bike auction with my blockmate Ana though we didn't get anything (the bikes were abandoned, so either worthless or sold for too much), then helped Kevin, a fellow Noteable, with singing and got him to agree to accompany me on my possible solo ("Try to Remember" from the Fantastiks), then went to Writers' Special Interest Group for some good line-editing, then went to Heather's tea party at MIT, then went to An Evening of Champions, which was the most amazing figure skating I can remember seeing. All of the skaters had /so/ much style! And there was a couple who'd been skating for 51 years (the woman's going to celebrate her "seven-er-teenth" birthday soon)!!! Then I spent a lovely evening with Burdick's RICH, wonderful hot chocolate (the place is otherwise comparable to Thomas Sweet chocolates though of course not as good and sans ice cream) and Kristen in her dorm, as we did math. Then I put of sleeping. I need to keep thinking about Matt's LARP in which I plan to play Brigid (because I love my Irish Celtic ancestry!) but have trouble thinking of good background/miracles. And we're singing Bach's "Komm, Jesu, Komm" in choir tomorrow--a great piece. Happiness.
Work will return shortly, after these messages. Sigh.
