a resounding meh!
Apr. 29th, 2025 12:06 pmit was a concert. We got a really congratulatory note from the director today, and I wonder if he was at the same concert I was. I mean, I understand that as a performer in the band, I tend to hear a lot of infelicities, and don't really hear the entire effect, but.... OTOH, some of my reaction may be colored by the fact that I "missed" three rehearsals for this concert, and there was a lot of finger-flying in the TSax part, and I was really off my game (I spent two rehearsals on BSax, then missed one because I had a (paid) FCB gig).
Got to the office today, and discovered that the plumbing issue we discovered Thursday afternoon is still not solved - the building was dark and there was a sign on the door saying "closed". Undoubtedly, Sup sent an email and mine went to my work email which I don't check when I'm not at work, mostly because when IT was setting my system up, he didn't set me up for offsite access. (This is a feature, not a bug, AFAIAC.) It was not a completely wasted trip though, as I was able to put the flag back up -- it'd been at halfmast for Pope Francis.
Last night's FCB rehearsal was very tiring, so it's probably just as well that I don't have rehearsal tonight. But I have no excuse for not weeding. (well, other than J is mowing, and I want to be on the other side of the house from the mower).
