Up 5:30, put on an episode of Midsomer Murders, got back to sleep.
Up for real a little before 8. Breakfast, coffee. Ran dishwasher.
Started editing section 8:30, finished around 11. Nailed down several citations, and ended up downloading a couple of Philip Tagg papers and a 2014 book called Groove: An Aesthetic of Measure Time that I hadn’t seen (while running down a ref. for Waterman on “metronome sense.”
Took a fairly long break 11-1; posted to writing group, other online activity.
Lunch, emptied dishwasher; updated monthly budget, paid a couple bills.
Found a download of King Vidor’s Hallelujah, which I was thinking of seeing at Film Forum tomorrow; bought a ticket to an experimental music gig instead, ft. Emily Hope Price, the cellist who played in Jean’s string quartet for my record.
Got our mail - hadn’t for a few days, since I didn’t know where the key was. Realized later that I unmindfully put (our only) key down when I came back in, and now I’m unsure where. So that’s on my mind.
Read to end of the first section in Mackey, about 25 p.
Took a fairly long nap, until 4 or so.
Made more coffee, read front matter and about 20 p. Of Imre Lakatos, Proofs and Refutations. “Logic sometimes makes monsters” — Poincaré.
Worked on the next section of the chapter (refrains) from 5:30-7. Not as much progress as this morning.
Snacked a couple of times rather than having a proper dinner.
Spent about half an hour on an email to Elizabeth Newton, who’s supposed to interview me for a podcast in the next couple weeks. We’ve discussed it, but there’s more prep. Also replied to Judith Berkson about starting up harmony lessons again.
Watched an hr. of Hallelujah! Lights out around 11.
