Well. I can't remember when or what I last blogged. I haven't touched my violin since I postponed/cancelled my recital. Mostly because I don't know what to play. I can't bring myself to play the recital music. And now I might be without a pianist, which could be a good thing. Start afresh. Or bad. Like, can't find one. I don't feel like I"m starting afresh though. I feel like it is tired and old. SO today I"m going to just play through Kreutzer to get my fingers and mind back on the violin. Maybe record some of them as motivation to play them well and not just slop through page after page. THey didn't let me have my violin in the hospital this time. I don't know why. By the way, just got out. AGAIN. for the last time in a long time. I'm finally straightened out, I think. And if I'm not, then I'm going to pretend that I am for all practical purposes. Whatever. Between laundry the Kreutzer will float out of the window. Matching the booming car stereos in the parking lot cranking out the rap and spanish music. I don't think I"m much of a match, but I can try!! :)
Sals,
JW
