July 28 - Keys Past the Future

More preposterous journeys (63-64 of Symphony No. 2: II and page 6 of Psalm 21 [its conclusion], filing, 21st-Century Music work) -- by now, back on Facebook, catching up on email, and talking with Harriet earlier -- and two more videos for Variations and Theme, being XIII and



XIV.

July 27 - Evasive Actions

Still debriefing from the trip, going through a lot of books, including an old one on the American West, with familiar poignant pictures of 19th-century Native-American notables, finding their way into L.A. Stories: Prelude - This Why I Wonder, above. All of the same activities of yesterday (61-62 of Symphony No. 2: II and page 5 of Psalm 21), with the biggest journey being twice to the front of the driveway. Phoning Harriet proves challenging, but we finally touch base late, as is the second video of the day, being



For My Brother For My Brother: 3. Dressing Up I-IV.

July 26 - Debatable

Relatively unscathed, save for a questionable knee, and it's "before trip edit music, produce videos / after trip edit music, produce videos," with the next two pages (59-60) of Symphony No. 2: II and fourth for Psalm 21, with the two movies being L.A. Stories: Interlude - Bozos and Ozone and



Postlude: Pretty Little Melody, plus filing and 21st-Century Music work. Oh, and the U.S. tax refund check arrives. Rejoice...

July 21 - It's Time It Ended, and Yet...

Pages 57-58 of Symphony No. 2: II and a third of Psalm 21 prepared for publication -- this is supposedly the day to head north, yet there is hesitation, until Harriet calls to assure that all's well. We decide to make it tomorrow, proceeding apace with cleaning up the house (much is back in the adjunct library, but now neat), leaving only a fair amount of fairly neat file stacks in the study. Finish up the videos of Ecclesiastes, being



X. Dead Flies and



XI. Epilogue.

July 20 - Lines of Inquiry

Two more pages (55-56) of Symphony 2: II prepared for publication, plus a second for Psalm 21, work on the September 2010 and the reconstruct of December 2005 21st-Century Music, a call from Harriet, and an additional box of files dispatched before picking up a parcel at the post and heading up the

south Petaluma for a bit more on the cross-California route,



from the offramp of 101 northbound to southbound (yet the walk is north).



Returning



home, there are the day's videos to do for YouTube:



Ecclesiastes: VIII. Who's Like and



IX. But All This.

July 19 - Ah, Tomorrow!

Do the review for the July 16 SFSound show, now up at 21st-centurymusic.blogspot.com, this Friday in Commuter Times, and in the September 2010 issue of 21st-Century Music. Also work on Chronicle for said issue as well as the reconstructed December 2005, prepare for publication two more pages for Symphony No. 2 (pages 53-54) and one for Psalm 21, pick up more filing boxes, talk to Harriet twice on the phone, and create videos for San Rafael News: IV. Immortality and



VIII. Rain-Death Fugato (Death Is the Rain). May have spoken too soon re emerging unscathed from yesterday....
