Sweet, Emily. I do this all the time with airplane no-smoking bells and oven timers. The wierd thing is they're almost always a, b, b flat, or somewhere in between. Emily, you are the master of the short blog. I, um, think I need some help in that department.

Enjoyed it!

Emily, you are having a very interesting summer. I wonder what is really going on there. I'm glad you still have your sense of humor. Do you have perfect pitch? Terez,

Thanks for the compliment! I wish I had more time for longer entries, but the "short blog" has to suffice for now.

Pauline, I wish I could fill in all the details, but it's very lengthy and a bit personal, so the randomness continues. Some day, when it's all over, perhaps I will tell the whole story.

Tom, I have "perfect pitch." I remember the first note I could tell (middle C). Then 440 A. Then B-flat. I got to know them over the years, and the more I focus on it, the easier it gets. I think some people can learn it like that. I think Brittney can learn it, so we work on it sometimes.

Oh, and Nicholas, you think there's something to that coincidence? I'm sitting here listening to my convection oven, and it's also a B. Heh. Our microwave bleeps at [a slightly out-of-tune] B/Bflat tone. Maybe it isn't a coincidence.
