Up 9. Weight down a hair.

Got out around 10, read quota of Rosenberg on train. Dithered over a couple of emails for a long time at Oracle, read 1st 3 pieces in Caples' Retrievals. I don't know that I buy every word of what he says about Wittgenstein in the preface, but his prose is stunningly and enviably pellucid, especially given his subjects (modernist art). Worked on Game Theory notes from 3-9ish, w/ a long dinner break (read more Caples). Knocked off for Oracle holiday party; Bree met me there. Happened to run into David Levine and Claire Lehman - had a conversation about some bad editorial experiences. Stayed 'til 12:30. Home, daybook, lights out about 2.
