not a lot to add...

to yesterday's post. I did go to the holiday celebration at Friends---as usual,  kind of raucus, but many alumni I had not seen in a while were there, also some good holiday wishes from my "buddies' in the senior class. Thought that it might be possible for me to attend the last part of my friend Sibyl's solstice celebration at the Whitney, but by 6, when I would have had to leave my apartment, was totally exhausted. Spent the rest of the evening mostly at home, in a kind of emotional limbo, though I did get a chance to hear most of Tchaikovsky's Symphony Number 1--which is not played very often. Loved the fourth movement the final one, full of the usual Tchaikovsky "fireworks", but also with an intriguing fugue part. Then I took a short walk and visited the nearby Barnes and Noble, which was open until midnight, so I was not rushed. That's about all.
What next? This afternoon, Arturo UI at CSC---looking forward to it---not sure about the rest of the day. Would enjoy watching an important pro football game this evening---but where? Not sure. Will probably depend on how I feel after the play. So that's it---tomorrow, will go to Cobra for the first part of the afternoon, maybe stop off at the Molasses bookshop nearby, and then...? Who knows? But will report soon.
