Ooh, Scallop? I read in the newspaper there was a major electricity problem in Melbourne; did you have any problems? Are they tennis-related?

Our biggest tennis-related problem is Lleyton Hewitt. 
Yeah there were electricity problems in Melbourne. Our power goes out quite a bit but we're a fair way from the city. The problems were
bushfire-related.
Victoria is having the worst bushfire season ever recorded. There's been almost a continuous smokey haze over the whole state since December. It
blocks out the sun and makes it look almost pink. It almost always looks overcast now even when there are no clouds.

They had fires in Colorado and New Mexico a couple years ago. Did the same thing. Camp out high in the Rockies? In the morning everything was
covered in a fine layer of soot and ash. Creepy like awakeniing to some post-apocalyptic world . . .

that's too bad, hate that when that happens,
but maybe you did better than you thought.
That happens too doesn't it?

Well... It was a music-recognition test. There was this list of 50 pieces, ranging from relatively short piano pieces to complete operas, and if you
hear a fragment from it, it's not always easy to tell which is what. The only one I'm absolutely sure is correct, is Webern op 10, Orchestral pieces.
But what really pissed me off, was that I recognized the last fragment but couldn't name it. And I knew that piece very well, due to an overkill of it
3 years ago: the finale of Rachmaninoff's 3rd piano concerto, apparently the hardest stuff there is to play. The name came up after I handed in my
answers. Bleh.
Today I'm better, visited my friend. But tomorrow I have a speech in class, and I fear I'm going to fuck up.

It went OK, I presume... except I jumped to the conclusion before I had played the Wagner snippet. My throat hurts from talking.

One of the first cold nights this winter in Holland.
Temperature tonight will fall down to -8 degrees Centigrade.
In the morning we expect snow coming in from the north.
We live in the south so snow will be there hours later.
Day after tomorrow temperature will be above zero.
A winter of one day

Today it was just rainy and a little cold. My throatache is better, but was replaced by a headache two days after, not to mention some other physical
inconveniences. I should take better care of myself.

it did snow today and the wind blew but now is calm and still with maybe 4 or 5 cm of snow on everything. I like it. But there were a couple really
big car pile-ups on the highway in KC today. One person was seriously hurt. What a mess. We'll see if my scheduled meeting happens. Not because of
the bad roads but because of the snow.
I like the snow, but that's probably because I don't drive.

Wow! Snow!
I doubt if we'll be seeing any snow until March over here...
Right now I have a throatache again. What have I been up to this time?
But, time for brighter news! I'm going to bake cookies!

yumm yess!!! chcolate chip? my favorite?
where do I sign?
you don't smoke, but you go indoors-and-out all the time (I assume, delivering the papers, going to class . . .), school would be my likely culprit
for a cold: lots of other people in enclosed spaces that constantly carries the effluvia of all the coughing, sneezing, snotting groups with the warm
interior allowing the stuff to stay dormant long enough to be picked up blahblah
but what do I know? you could be scraping your throat with some metal scrubby that's supposed to be the next electrolyte in your country's
mythology
np: zpz detroit, 2006 06 15 Inca Roads
btw I'm only half way with that 1966 interview.
I've had a couple days off and I've not got a thing done with anything. what's MY deal?
lookin at my clock, I bet the sun is going down there
One thing I need to do is unload my camera so I can take more pictures
