I had weird chest pain all day today. That was sort of scary. It was more like that "you've broken a rib" feeling, painful when I breathed, though, than the "your heart isn't getting enough oxygen" kind. (As far as I know, I suppose, as to my knowledge I've never felt the latter.)

And I was planning to take a nap last night after SVU ended (Oliva's re-butchification? Alexandria heartily approves!) and get back up around 12:30 or so to do some work before maybe hitting the sack again around 3 or 4. The former was achieved. The latter, the getting back up? Not so much. LOL. Though I still was v. tired in the morning, because I'm still sleeping like crap. I woke up and the mattress, which is normally on the bed about a foot away from the wall, had slid partially off the frame to be actually pushed up against the wall. Indicating flailing, which makes me laugh and yawn at the same time.

Just got back from the gym, and on the way back--it's only a couple of miles from my house--I passed no less than 6 police cars. It was 10:20 pm or thereabouts, and so there were nearly more police cars than regular cars on the road. Are they expecting some kind of full moon revelry? Because, if they are, point me to the revelry. I want in.

Watched the end of the Dartmouth democratic presidential candidate debate. That was interesting, though there wasn't anything really outrageous said. Some candidates I hadn't heard of before, though. The section I was watching was all rapid-fire, so they only had 30 seconds to answer (though they went over a lot), though I would have liked to have some rebuttal and back-and-forth going on, because I could tell that Clinton and Obama were just itching to reply when one of the other (new) guys started talking about how his plan was better because it was immediately possible (going to all wind power) and they were all *cough*not financially responsible*cough*. Or I was, at least, and am projecting my desire to reply to that guy onto them. Either way.

And Hillary got slammed a couple of times. If I were her, I'd totally think it was unfair that something like 3 of the questions/hypotheticals posited were from Bill Clinton (during his presidency or something, I'd say). So if she disagreed, they'd point out that it was a Bill question and be all "So what do you have to say about that?" Hillary: "he's totally sleeping on the couch tonight We'll talk." Though she's going to have to put up with a lot of that in the coming year or so, just because that's the situation (she does have the most political experience,so she's going to get slammed about everything), it does seem sort of biased.

Oh, and somehow I've managed to break the same toenail twice in two days. On the same toe that I managed to get a blister on due to improper sock positioning whilst at the gym this evening. Grr.

LOL. I just found the sheet music for "Meditation on Thais", and on the website (8notes), it's labled as hard. I think I played that in 7th grade. Admittedly, a different arrangement, but there's nothing in this one that I couldn't have handled back then. (Edit: Okay, maybe some massive shifts. I would have just brought it down, though.) This is just reinforcing my conviction that my middle school honored teacher for this award thing has to be my orchestra teacher. She was made of so much win.

ANDANDAND! I just found the music for the unaccompanied Prelude from Suite no.1 in G Major for cello. On the free site. IN ALTO CLEF. I was resigned to having to transpose it myself, probably after I would have to buy it, BUT NO. WINWINWIN. IL that song.
