Last day of this series. May use this space differently.

Up 5. Read 2 ch. Middlemarch, 10 p. Brooks.
At some point after breakfast, picked up Pinker’s Sense of Style.
Spoke to Bree and her folks, about 10 pm their time.
Napped around 11, to Glenn Gould’s Goldberg Variations (a friend had posted it on her dad’s b-day, couple days ago).
Knew in advance I wouldn’t write today - still recovering from exhaustion yesterday. At least the sun has come back out.
Played piano at some point - “The Man I Love” and of course “What Are You Doing New Year’s Eve?”
Posted about the chord changes of the latter on twitter.
Finished chapter of Brooks.
Went out briefly around 5, partly to see if I could get some roasted peppers at Padua Pasta Makers, but they were closed. Got a coffee to go at Mud, walked around downtown Upland, dropped into the antique mall with the crummiest records ever. Sent pics of the gazebo to Bree.
Read the rest of Caddel, Uncertain Time.
Dinner, Jeopardy!
Watched Law & Order, half an hr. of a Thin Man movie. Read more Pinker.
Went to bed at 10, put on side 1 of Heiner Stadler, Brains on Fire - a weird record on a classical label by a Polish composer, but w/ out-jazz players inc. Barre Philips and Reggie Workman. Picked it up on intuition at Penny Lane last week, realized it’s the same guy who arranged an equally curious Monk/Bird record I have.
Bree called at 11. Lights out midnight.
