We got just a little bit carried away playing Pokemon today, which means we did not have time to watch the Miraculous Paris special again. That's two whole days we've gone without watching it, and I'm not sure I can handle it. (I mean, obviously I can, but it sure would be nice to watch it again ( Read more... )

We spent today feeling pretty terrible about the whole tempo thing, except for the brief time when we got to play Tintin Reporter and forget our woes. It really sounds like such a ridiculous thing to be so distraught about, and yet here we are. I think part of it is that we don't get a whole lot of positive reinforcement, which is not something ( Read more... )

We're just getting over a couple of mild existential crises, that's all. It started innocently enough. Saturday night was our ward's Christmas party, and we had been asked to take charge of the portion where everybody would be singing Christmas carols--me on the piano and Athena leading the music, as usual. Singing carols is one of our favorite ( Read more... )

Happy Thanksgiving, everybody! Our work situation is such that we didn't have to work today, and we're pretty sure we won't suffer dire consequences as a result! So that was pretty exciting. And we took the entire day off, which was very nice. We spent most of our time playing Hogwarts Legacy, but after a while we decided we needed a change of ( Read more... )

We're back! But only very briefly, for we are leaving for Japan in less than two days. This last weekend we were visiting family for our niece's baptism. It was a pretty good time ( Read more... )

I'm feeling a lot better than I was yesterday, in case anyone was worried. Discussions about the appropriate tempo for sacrament meeting music are still ongoing, but very slowly because I'm pretty sure both people involved (myself and the music director) are afraid of other people and therefore take time to respond to text messages ( Read more... )

Our schedule was in shambles today. We don't usually have a schedule on Saturday, per se, but we did today, and it was in shambles. See, I've been asked to play the piano for a special musical number in church tomorrow, and the original plan was to practice at the church this morning. Then we all remembered that there was a funeral in the church ( Read more... )

You guys, we actually had an afternoon off! ...We maybe should not have taken it off, because we still have two translations to do in a little over a week, but gosh darn it, we took it off anyway. And oh man, was it nice to take a break ( Read more... )

Today was full of all the things. First we had to sleep in. That's very important, because for some reason we are incapable of getting enough sleep during the week ( Read more... )

Today was pretty exciting! For us, anyway. We finished work pretty early, which meant we had time to make a video of us performing the Miraculous theme song! ...The video itself is less than two minutes long, but we did need all that extra time. We practiced a lot first...and there were a lot of takes. I don't think we ever did get a perfect ( Read more... )
