I got up very early this morning (not so surprising so soon after setting the clock back an hour!) and so got in a great walk, work-out, and set of stretches on the way back. I also was delighted to see my friend, Liz, out walking her big dog this morning. We enjoyed chatting for a bit, and I shared this little limerick with her, one that illustrates a little of the craziness of the English language:
A flea and a fly in a flue
Were imprisoned, so what could they do?
Said the flea, "Let us fly!"
Said the fly, "Let us flee!"
So the flew through a flaw in the flue.
I was scheduled for 7 units of Berlitz lessons today, but the first student was actually a no-show: 9:00-10:30, 12:00-1:30, 4:00-4:45, and 5:30-7:00. The last lesson will be observed and I have to go to a feedback session on Thursday to talk about it. I never like these feedback sessions because it seems that no matter how well I think the lesson went, the observer always finds a million things that I should have done but didn't do. This makes it very hard for me to maintain my usually positive outlook on things, but I'll continue trying. :-)
We ate lunch at Café Café today. David had ravioli with tomato sauce, and I had nice whole-grain bread with various spreads.
The second week of my Programming for Musicians and Digital Artists class opened today, and I have already watched all the lecture videos for the new week. There were a lot less of them this time. The assignment for this week is going to be quite a bit more restrictive about what we can do, so I may find it harder to make interesting music, but I'll see what I can come up with. In fact, I'm rather looking forward to the challenge.
