Hooray for quartet rehearsal! It was nice and low-key today. Kim (friend) wasn't there since she's preparing for her big recital tomorrow. So we sat around, and did some work, and laughed a lot and had a good time. Sherry (friend) and Ben (friend; a.k.a. Beardy McCellist) are always fun to hang around. Plus, I found out Sherry's playing a gig with me this weekend, with an orchestra over in Clarksville. She asked if we could carpool, and then she was all, "I don't want to impose or anything ..." I guess she figured I might have already made plans. But then I told her about the Thai place I found last time I was there, and said if we carpooled she'd have to go there with me, and she was all about it. Sweet!

Things are looking up. Also, I've come round to the idea of using people's names in my blog. (I've included handy labels to denote each person's relation to me.) I didn't do it at first, but some things just don't make sense unless I can refer to the people that are involved. I hope this isn't the first dangerous step towards becoming a super whiny drama blog.

"Did you hear what Tish said the other day? I can't believe it!"

Just kidding, Tish. Thanks for helping me out today. You even picked a hottie to unlock the room for me. That was pretty awesome. You got mad skillz!
