I went to bed early and tired last night, slept well for a few hours, and then woke up and had trouble getting back to sleep. Eventually, after actually getting up for a while, I did get back to sleep, but I got up quite late this morning.

After breakfast, I walked down to Maccabi for my blood test and for an appointment with the orthopedist about my left shoulder, which has been causing me some problems lately. He ordered an ultrasound of it (which won't happen until 19 Jan) and gave me a prescription for some anti-inflammatory medicine.

Then I visited Hannah for a while and we ended up walking up to the university for a really very nice lunch at their cafeteria. Their food is extra good because it's prepared by students who are in their hotel and hospitality training program.

I walked part of the way home, but I was tired, and it was rather hot out, so I took a bus the rest of the way. I took today's pic of the day from the bus stop where I was waiting. The guys are on the top of a 4- or 5-story apartment building:

When I got home, I set right to work on today's fugue of the day, but I had to put it aside to go over Shakhamon for an appointment with my psychiatrist (whom I hadn't seen in a year). I took a bus over there, but I walked back. Unfortunately, I had to wait quite a while because he was way behind. This was because, unbeknownst to him, someone had locked the outside door into the clinic so that his patients were unable to get in! Anyway, all was well there, and it was good to update him a little on my life.

When I came back home, I finished my work on the fugue of the day, whose subject EVERYONE will recognize, I think. Click here to check it out!

I walked a total of 7.8 kilometers today.
