Today at about 2pm, I sat in a rehearsal room at Berkeley with my feet up on the harmonium, listening to Michael Marra sing Schenectady Calling Peerie Willie Johnson, accompanied by Mr McFall's Chamber. The world instantly became a much better place.

Later, I relaxed in the bath, listening to John Cage reading from his Indeterminacy stories, with David Tudor providing other sounds. OK, they weren't actually there, I found them on Spotify, but that was pretty good too.  Then I made friends with a curious fox cub in the garden ... got to wind down somehow.
