amethyst73Yesterday was quite productive. We:
• got taught the steps to our first true ice dance, the Dutch Waltz
• got work done on my car
This took longer than it was supposed to and I failed to bring anything to entertain myself with while waiting. So I hung out in the customer lounge and watched a bit of Game Seven of the Boston/Chicago basketball game. It's the first time I've watched pro basketball in literally decades, and the main thing that struck me was, wow those guys are beefy! Muscles on muscles in their torsos and arms. Way back when (in my kiddie memory of Larry Bird and his ilk) I remember that the typical basketball-player phenotype was tall and skinny. When did that change to tall and burly?
• performed in the voice studio's recital
Which went quite well, really. Laurie's Song went at least as well as it's ever gone in practice, ditto the Doll Song. The Green Dog was fine till the very end when I flubbed the timing. Pretty much everyone was an active pleasure to listen to - it was really nice!
• had a fence between us and a neighbor built after the old one blew down a couple of weeks ago
And today, I've already done church and we've gone skating. We need to go over to Stanford so I can pack up some supplies I'll need, take care of the neighbor's cats, and go grocery shopping. Yes, busy. But good.
