Feb. 27th, 2005 09:08 pmWe're very busy at work. I even worked Saturday (I think this is the first time I've had to do that). It was actually a very productive day because no one interrupted me while I was working. The grant goes out Monday, ready or not.
However, my back has been getting better. Last week I had two days straight when I didn't have to take any painkillers at all! I was psyched. And its routine now for me to not have to take acetaminophen every six hours anymore--more like every eight, or even just a couple of times a day. Since acetaminophen is a liver toxin, I'd really prefer to stay off it as much as possible.
I got invited to give a (short) concert at Galacticon. I've been working on old stuff from Echo's Children since Christmas time, and I think I'll have enough of a repertoire worked up on the mandolin to do a concert with it. Even if my mando teacher isn't big on technique, just the regular practice is doing me lots of good, I can tell. I can almost do "Out of the Music's Way" as fast as I'd like now :-)
In other news, I'd really like to go to FilkOntario. Money's tight, and I hate flying anyway, so I'm thinking about driving. Anybody interested in riding up with me or having me ride up with them? I'd be leaving from the Knoxville TN area.
