I thought I'd just hold her for a few minutes to give the Acrobat a break. But she busted out into full scream practically as soon as I got her in my arms. I must smell wrong. I nearly always make her scream till her eyes bug out in fury.
Rook's oldest sister is coming and i'm feeling a little bad that I haven't cleaned the kitchen. I know she will be grossed out and horrified by it, despite herself. But it was so hot. I did clean the room where she is sleeping, at least.
I got deeper into the little piano books I took from my parents' house. A whole bunch of mazurkas are lying bleeding on the floor where I left them after the butchering. Seriously though sometimes it all comes back to me and I'm amazed I still remember where my fingers go.
The other night I got up and did a little happy leaping dance because I accidentally reached an octave + one note. accidentally! My hands are getting back into shape. I'm going to go and play some more right now. I'm still just sight reading my way through every single book. When I come across somethign I used to play in 1981 or something (they are marked sometimes with dates) then it sounds better and is more fun.
I didn't make any progress on translating this week but instead played a lot of piano and nethack.
