9:00am Yay, rain!
10:00am Coffee first, before heading to Ifshin to get violin checkup and supplies.
10:20am Quick stop at Moe's as I leave Peet's; reminder to check out Theory of Light and Matter by Porter and Paris Review Interviews IV and Kingsolver fiction
11:10am Having her bow rehaired, her violin sound post adjusted and strings replaced. Felt such joy when Jay Ifshin commented "beautiful violin!" and kept referring to a violin "of this caliber."
12:45pm Lunch @ Chick-o-Pea. They have delicious falafel, pickled veggies and fries:
1:55pm Showed up at Girls Inc. to volunteer, but thanks to over-volunteering, they could only give me a tiny bit to do
3:00pm Checking out the Alameda "free" library since volunteering took less time than expected
3:30pm Read the first few chapters of Kingsolvers Poisonwood Bible at the library
4:00pm Heading back to Girls Inc. in Alameda to see if I can help teach some young girls how to use chopsticks
7:00pm Traffic is conspiring to make us late for dinner with Ching, Wilson and Ethan
7:30pm Hot pot with good friends and a patient, smiley baby!
10:30pm My new black Gap pants are here and they fit GREAT! Thanks for the free shipping Wendy!
11:25pm Yay, more rain!
