Monday: Woke to another possible interested party saying "no." Later, woke again to someone obviously calling from India, asking me if still lived in Somerville, pronounced like Somer-Villy. I got a little more sleep, and had a dream, that I realized was a dream in the middle of it. I was on a high wall, and I jumped off to prove to myself that I would not be hurt. As I landed on the sidewalk, it turned into an electric field of shimmering lights, and I awoke. Shower, down basement, drums. Fed Oscar (rainy day, so he was happy to be in). Breakfast. Lazing around. Pretty clear I'm going to have to cancel the course, but waiting until I talk with Richard on Tuesday. Off to work. Dropping off dry cleaning. At the office, wrote some documentation for the work I'd done last week. Figured out a bug in the open and save dialogs (a strange recursion). Fixed several small bugs. Started looking into something very puzzling, requiring quite a bit of regression. Figured out the bug was introduced around January 4th, but Dv (who now has left the company). Oh joy. Stopped at the video store. Back home, leftover Chinese, and "Alexander." While big, and dumb, I must admit that the scene where Angelina Jolie talking like a vampire plays with snakes, was fun to watch. Now, down basement to complete the day.
Sunday: Another conversation with Richard. We set a deadline of Tuesday morning. More course study (page layout etc). Imported all the music into iTunes, and figured out a way to have breaks between segments of a playlist. Had to reimport everything because the first time had some errors. Out to guitar circle around 6:45. Full house. Elan was there again also, and we looked at more ideas relating to dynamics. Some recording. I thought we played pretty decent versions of Growing Circle and Askesis. Back home, a person had sent an email withdrawing from the course. A phone message from someone who had expressed interest, saying "no." I can see where this is going. More work, and again, a late night.
Saturday: Feeling lazy. Talked to Richard. Did some work on studying the course I'm to lead. Had a nice long talk with Ann. Took a drive out and picked up videos, vitamins, and Chinese food. Watched some of "Southland Tales." Disappointing. Up late.
Friday: At the office, completed debugging my API extension, and checked in before leaving around 6. Picked up some juice and veggies on the way home. As I was getting set up, a couple early birds arrived. The late comers didn't show up until 8 or so. One guy was lost. In the end there were around 8 guys. No new registrations though. Rk stayed until 1am telling me about his journey with prostate cancer.
