April 15 - A Bit Taxing


Quiz 1 -- more of a worksheet, really -- for the St. Mary's Perceivers (plus first time using video machine, which, like the rest of the equipment...joy!...works...), followed by Quiz 11 for the DVC Theoreticians, the latter with excerpts from Duke Ellington, Olivier Messiaen, Bela Bartok, John Cage, Jester Hairston, and Richard Rodgers --


then back to SMC to collect errant power cable and visual adapter (getting a call, while dealing with petrol, re recent health care plan, and answering a plethora of questions, mostly with "no").


Beyond, it's a mad dash to



Marin, picking up overcoat (a resewn button morphs into a drycleaning and liner repair to the tune of $37.97... the last under-two paid in long-duration small coins),



items at post office (just before guard locks door),



a reservation (exactly at what is perceived to be closing time) to have standard auto maintenance on April 21, and



dinner/double-paper-grading at Fernando's (all A's and B's from DVC, and mostly the same re SMC) with a first guilty ordering of Americano from a Mexicano establishment).



Arrival


on



the

front



is



just



under-the-agreed wire, as is a late grocery run, the beginning of Song of Solomon V., and the fifth page of orchestration for The Creation.
