Wednesday: Medium-sized circle, at the space this time as Bob and Jaxie are out of town. Got all the way through Curt's circulation exercise with "three layers", each player responsible for three different paths up and down the scale (in three octaves in this case) – not without mistakes, but without completely losing it. Just because that wasn't challenge enough, someone began practicing drums in the room directly beneath ours about halfway through the meeting. They moved into that room for some reason, used to be at the other end of the building. We're going to have to have a talk w/ "management" about that one. Out to the Hi-Life after that for a bit. Hadnt' been there in a while. They don't have the pesto pizza on the menu any more. Turns out they were only selling them on Monday nights – they'd sell about 8 of them then, but we were the only ones who'd order them. Shame, they were tasty. A little pesto pizza with sliced asparagus, kalamata olives, and big chunks of roma tomato.
Today: only slightly frantic day, getting loose ends tied up at work before my absence. Shipped a server to Malaysia, fixed some bugs, played some TF2, got some work done on a task I've been putting off for a while. Spent some time trying to find out what's wrong with the new purchase path – the sales on the packages we've switched over are significantly lower, but without any obvious errors. Still a mystery.
Tomorrow: packing and preparation, then a flight to Boston via Cleveland.
music: Interpol, Clutch, McLaughlin, Squarepusher, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Nirvana, Modest Mouse
