Sunday NYC: Woke, shower and breakfast at a place farther up the street, avoiding the place from yesterday. In this restaurant, on the second floor of a market, a banner sung the praises of lamb chops. But the food was pretty good. Headed out around 10 AM.
Uneventful drive back to Boston, stopping only once. Rolled in around 1:45 PM. Hanging with MB. Unpacking. Oscar brought another cat friend over. Strangely, he had very similar markings to Leo. The two of them both have a sort of thuggish Somervillian look to them. MB promptly named the new one "Vinny." A grilled cheese sandwich. Down basement and video editing. Back upstairs some time later. MB's student was a no-show. I think she should start asking for a deposit for personal lessons. Back upstairs and another snack. Trimmed the hedge in the front. A party in progress across the way. More video editing, and then off to guitar circle.
At circle tonight, Victor MB Martin myself Chris and Alex. We were able to circulate C Maj up and back in 4 octaves in 3 tries, but once Victor added the "no hesitation" rule, it was no longer in our grasp. Victor's piece. If we're going to be starting with that piece, I need to start warming up before circle. Driving Force. Askesis. Some good info about ringing strings and the pivot. I asked a question about what we should be practicing, which led to an interesting answer.
MB and I stopped at Christopher's on the way home and had some food. (Buffalo Tofu, Portobello Fettucini. MB got soup.) Back home, some more haning out, then more video editing. Now to complete the day.
