Up for an hr. Around 3:30. Up again 5:45. Checked Rite Aid for rubbing alchohol, they didn’t get any.
20+ p. Milne. Almost done, but I really dislike the last prose section.
Form notes 10 R&B songs - 1948, end of disc 3 (7 32-bar AABAs, most of any single disc so far), start of 4.
Watched 1st group of Rob McClennan’s poetry videos (he’s asked me to contribute)Watched performances of Beckett, “Rough for Theater I” and “Rockaby” from a group of 5 short plays, dir. Peter Brook. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUPAFt9JAhI&fbclid=IwAR3wPLge4SZmafWuo-_AEdaUQlyZsGiI_Faxk2TMyH9zqgVzGlwM23VeDP8
Therapy.
15 p. Clausen.
Helped Bree fashion a new recycling receptacle.
Took walk. Worked about noon-2:15. Ended up w/ the same length draft as when I started!
Put on a dumb Hammer horror movie, City of the Dead, and napped.
Some email. Figured out how to open a password protected tax document.
Helped Bree w/ recycling organization and laundry.
Took walk.
2 LEAR poems.
Listened to a couple of Fred Hersch’s livestreams from the last couple days. “Eronel,” “Upper Manhattan Medical Group,” an original called “Valentine.” Watched 2 more short Beckett plays (there was a wordless one in the middle I didn’t have patience for), and a TED talk about putting combinatorially generated melodies, ala the Library of Babel, into the p.d. to reduce infringements suits. Both interesting and smarmy.
Played a little Bach and Monk, both badly.
Finished the Milne, with annoyance.
Brought up the laundry.
Was about to watch Patrick Stewart’s Shakespeare readings w/ Bree when Dylan Hicks called — good to talk.
Texts from Jay S-G and my cousin Diane — people are hunkered down and starting to reach out (are starved for contact).
Never got back to Claussen today.
Lights out 12, dharma talk, but fell asleep quickly.

[This was the Brazilian gtr album, by Paulinho Nogueira and Toquino, that I couldn’t locate the other day: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81DjBm0GZHY]
