The remains of yesterday, and today
Not much happening right now. I did get some work done last night. The paper is officially done and I did what I thought was all of my German. Apparently sleep deprivation can make you not hear a writing assignment. Its not a huge thing, though. I really need to practice violin, and that is going to be the priority of the next week. Other than that, nothing going on.
The concert last night was aimed at children, so it only lasted and hour and a half (I didn't mind), there was only one piece of music, and there was an entertainer between the movements with a dummy of a crochety old man (hmm... when did crochet become associated with grumpy and unpleasant people?). I think, but don't know, because it was all in German, that the old man disliked Bartok and our entertainer was trying to convince him of his merit. It was interesting that despite them talking for a good ten minutes at a time with me only understanding one word in fifty, I didn't get bored. Entertainers are entertaining even if they are not understandable in the conventional sense, I guess.
