The Grand Fallacy

Hooray! Back at work. Just in time to clean up a few things and go home for the weekend. ? Eleya has a bellydance recital tonight so I’m taking the baby over there with me to see the show. I’ll cross my fingers and hope that she’s good so I …

So last night I hadn’t forgotten how to do my last cool motor skill, which was nice. I didn’t have a good technical practice in terms of being disciplined and going through studies. Instead I spent a lot of time listening to some songs and trying to get better at …

Woohoo! Home early from class. I think I’ll practice for a while. If you haven’t already, check out Dictionaraoke, it’s da bomb baby!

Got a doctor’s appointment for 1:15 today to check the pipes. I guess I’ll head home after I pick up any prescriptions. At least I’ll be able to up my practice time assuming they don’t give me any unexpected bad news.

Throat still really bad; I’m trying to get a doctor’s appointment today. Yeah, right, in my next life maybe if I’m lucky. <sigh> In the meantime it’s really quiet in my office this morning. I think one other person may be in later; until then I have it all to …
