eponymous_roseWelcome to the longest day of the year! :D And here I slept through the first half of it...
Stuff's going well. Extremely well, in fact, but there's not much to report. Did some more accompanying work and realized just how out of practice I am - I pulled up a brand new Beethoven Sonata (well, new to me - I didn't just make a huge musicological discovery and produce a previously unknown work. That would've been sort of sweet, though.) to help me work on actually moving my fingers. The too-much-energy thing still hasn't quite worn off, considering the way I was chattering away yesterday (an hour-long phone call to my Mom is fairly unusual) - I blame the fact that fencing was cancelled on Tuesday. Still expect it to wear off just before fencing tonight.
Am currently working on uploading a bunch of public-domain Sherlock Holmes radio plays (mostly from the 40s) - that'll be fun to share, especially since I haven't listened to them for so dang long. I seem to have misplaced a bunch of my Stanley/Shirley ones, though, which bugs me because I know I've listened to all the episodes. Hm. I think my computer could use a bit of a cleanup at some point. Should probably also defrag the disk...
Oh, and a shoutout tomegoobie on her birthday! Hope it's full of Holmesy goodness! *parties like it's 1899*

Please do let me know how you're liking my French-Canadian indie band. I'd be hesitant to recommend more crud to you if you found this at all disagreeable.
*tips hat*
