I am waiting for the repair man to fix our dryer. He is late; I had hoped to snatch a nap before my show in SL tonight. I have prepared my songlist and I am planning on a 10 minute atonal improvisation on piano, blindfold. I would rather be fresh for that; if I am tired and blindfolded, I could drop off to sleep I suppose.
I have spent another day tidying up in my studio and also doing some housekeeping on computer. The new MA cohort will have been settling in this week and so I have tried to keep busy in order to keep my mind from dwelling on it. I have had moderate success with that strategy. This afternoon would have been a good time to do some autumnal clearing up in the garden. The sun is bright and it smells nice outside. I don’t always make the right decisions. Still, I have sorted out a lot of music leads and that is a job I have been meaning to do for a long time.
I also got my synthesizer up and put my nose into the manual for about an hour. I use it for a couple of songs in my internet shows but so far I been restricted to pre-set voicings, owning to a lack of deep understanding. The instrument is fairly complex. I need to study it further. I shall post this now and think about what to do about this repair man. It is nearly time to have something to eat. All I had for lunch was a few plums. Speak to you later.
