Woke around 9. MB had to go to OCBC for a bit. Shower. Mom was up too. I headed down to the basement for some morning practices. Then, breakfast with MB and mom. Eggs, little toasts, soy sausage etc. Some unwrapping of presents. We listened to some music, and watched a bit of a DVD. I game my mom a ride to South Station and dropped her in from of the train entrance.

Over to KKC. Choden Rinpoche, day 2. I was a little less sleepy today, but still drifted in and out. The sound system was better behaved, except we had some interference with the wireless mic. Afterwards, home.

Leftover Chinese food. Got a call from Shawn saying he wouldn't be able to pick up his drums for a week or so. Decided to deal with them sooner rather than later. Packed them up. Noticed a little ding on my electric guitar that hadn't been there before. Drove Shawn's drums over to his house, and left them on the porch. Back home, some daily practices in the basement.

Guitar Circle: MB's friend Ivny was observing. Circulation. IBE counting. Askesis. Thrack clapping. Talking. Improvisation.

Back home, and some more food and cake, talking about the universal end game. Sleepy.
