When I decided to start a blog, I had forty minutes remaining until I had to leave for class. There are now around five. Some of the time was spent eating chocolate; some was spent making a new email account not connected with me, some of it was spent looking at a video of barnacles mating, which was strangely beautiful. I think it was all the waving fringe.
Today, too, is gorgeous: crisp, clear bright sky, sun shining, trees all golden and orange. This is my first real fall, though it may be getting toward winter now: I grew up in the land of the subtropics, where summer stretches from April to November and winter rarely reaches 0 (C).

It's now several hours later; I went to class and then met up with a friend for coffee and cake. As I was walking, I saw a house sparrow in the grass and a robin in a tree. The cake was very good, and very rich; we split a piece, but neither of us could finish it.
I need to practice more, both violin and piano, but I don't know if I'm going to do that today - I want to go to a recital later. I'm having scheduling problems, too - one of the classes I want to take next semester ends at the same time that orchestra begins; I think it should be fine, but I need to talk to the orchestra manager about it.
The post times for this are off. I will change it manually.
Tonight, I go to bed early.
