Further Randomness
May. 18th, 2007 09:21 pmIsn't hearing supposed to deteriorate with age? I've really noticed the opposite lately. Take just now - I'm sitting downstairs, typing in the kitchen, and I hear this faint buzzing. It's very annoying, so eventually I get up to investigate.
Turns out it was my cell phone ringing. On vibrate. In my backpack.
Two floors up.
Freakish hearing aside (no wonder I have trouble sleeping when the neighbours pull out the BBQ!), looking forward to a pancake brunch tomorrow with my grandparents and uncle (just flown in from Vancouver, huzzah!). Whipped cream and strawberries ahoy!
That took some getting used to after I moved out - having to invite myself over to the omnipresent family gatherings sans my usual retinue of parents and brother. It's all good, though - just offer to play piano as entertainment and I get to avoid any awkward social interaction and still make an appearance. And, um, get to eat pancakes. Heehee.
Played through Schubert's Wanderer Fantasy again - it hurts my brain so much, but I love it. Predictably, inspiration struck. (How dramatic!) I think it's my new project. In more ways than one.
