wet cats

Sunday: Slept in, having not gotten to bed until 6 AM or so. MB headed off to OCBC. Continued sleeping. Up, shower. Didn't fully make the bed, because the cats were sleeping so sweetly together. Breakfast of eggs, listening to an NPR spot on privacy and serach engines. Depressing stuff.

MB returned from the OCBC congregational meeting around 3 PM. We had some coffee together. She decided to give the cats bathes, and I helped. Leo seemed to take it OK, but Gus was a bit shell-shocked afterwards. Some guitar. Down basement and exercise and practices. Had to cut this short as it was getting near time to leave for guitar circle. Straightened up the basket of magazines in the kitchen.

A good circle meeting. Victor seemed a bit stern at the beginning, and asked me questions about my work with Shawn. I'm not sure why he did this. C Maj in three octaves up and back. Eye of the Needle (working on blend). Askesis. Third Relation. A break, with jokes. Invention 1. This piece is proving to be quite a challenge to Victor and David, who have to play many double-stops, and often where one of the notes rings for twice as long as the other.

Back home, I had some leftover Shepherd's pie, and sat with MB playing word association. Email. MB went to bed. I have some more stuff to do.
