GCNE at OCBC

Sunday: Up early, around 6:30. MB asked "where are you going?" "To the bathroom?" hoping that would suffice. Shower. I made breakfast while she had her sitting. Then we ate: coffee, eggs, toast. Down basement for brief morning practices. We headed off to OCBC at about 8:20.

Arrived just moments before Martin. Good timing. Gear set up (including the large speakers). Victor and Dev arrive, followed by David. Irv asked if we could sight read hymns, as the organist's car broke down. Nope. Some warming up. We played Growing Circle and Invention 1 as people entered. Passage while the money came in. Third Relation at the end. Quite lot of sitting in between, during which time we, strangely, had a refresher on the plot of "About Schmidt." Loading out. The Martin clan and the Hughes clan met in South Boston, and transported the PA, via freight elevator, to Jane's studio. Jane just had surgery, and Victor needed to go be with.

Back home, and a spontaneous nap. MB and I woke around 3:45. Lunch of lentil soup, leftover pizza, salad and a veggie burger. Called mom, who had gotten back from a trip to Florida. The trip back was a little stressful, as flights were being delayed due to bad weather. Put the registration sticker on my car. Down basement while MB did some audio recording. Some more cleaning up after the (small) flood on Friday. Began a project by putting up a large piece of paper on the wall.

Later, upstairs and hanging with MB, while she made cookies. Decided to drive and and see Zodiac while MB did more recording. Thumbs up. Back home, a microwaved burrito. Soon to complete the day.
