Well, half of them anyway.
Instead of 3 classes today I only have 1.
I wonder what's in the punchbowl upstairs?

Random Thing 26
Even though Hilary just made fun of me I am going to do something nice for her. I get the newsletter for the Royal College of Music and, long story short, they are obsessed over there with concert program history. Basically a few musicologists at the school devote every waking moment to researching old concert programs - where they are, what they say etc.
They've put together a database - www.concertprogrammes.org.uk - that allows you to search for very specific information. For instance, lets say you want to know what concerts took place in Paris on April 30th, 1899 that had Liszt pieces on them. You can type that in and it will tell you all the libraries that have the concert programs for that day. Often it tells you who played and what they played, it just depends.
You of course can easily see how this could pad many a paper slash presentation. They shoved it down our throats while I was getting my masters degree - but there was no internet resource so it was basically impossible to use. You'd have to go to Paris or wherever in person. So this is good. Random Thing number 26 about Alice: I am incredibly nice.

Arthur and the Exercausor
This video might not be too interesting but it has Arthur in it so I thought I should post it.

Playlist Fun
Hi there everyone. I will send pictures really soon I promise, I am just lazy. I've been taking them, really. I just didn't want anyone to get freaked out about the playlist I put on the bottom of this blog. You can put your own on here too - just don't have it automatically play (and maybe do it on the side).
Ok now to explain the song choices. I spend about 2 hours awake in the middle of the night doing nothing but helping out Mr. Choo (my baby). And Time Life music has been playing these 70s cd commercials at that time, some of the songs on which I really like. I obviously don't want to buy the cd set so I thought I'd put them on this list and listen to them whenever I feel like it. So proceed to make fun. I know I would.
Oh and the Bob Dylan is of course for Mom.

The Second Interview
Its been a while but I interviewed Charlie again two weeks ago and its funny. I ran out of memory which is why it cuts off - that won't happen again though thanks to my wonderful new memory card. Thanks Mom and Dad!
