What a most curious weekend. The end of one love, the possibilities of others, and, of course, planning the escrow for the Leopold bow. I asked Darius Music in Budapest because I figured that Zoltán would be easier to work with since he speaks almost perfect English. (Although I must admit, I think it was very funny when he thought I was saying "escort service" rather than "escrow service".) Zoltán is quite charming, actually, and the shop is pretty. I'm so glad he agreed to facilitate the trial, despite his misgivings about upper-end carbon bows and working with a company of which he hasn't heard.

Other than that... Oh, girls, how hard did PMS hit me this Friday? I must have played the tune about 50 times over the course of the week and when I couldn't play it still and he kept making me play it, I just started bawling my eyes out. Thank god for waterproof mascara, but I'm upset at myself still that my emotions can be so out of control when (1) it's nearly that time of the month and (2) I'm trying to quit smoking.

And my not-so-secret crush told me we should be good friends. Oh well. Can't hurry love...

But the bow! I can hardly wait until I see that the arrangements are settled! Otherwise... Oh, we'll see... I hope everything works out all right.
