Practice

I just practised for 90 minutes on my violin, the first solid musical workout I've had for ten years. My arms feel buff. My jaw hurts, though.

Tuning is so much easier with an electronic tuner instead of pitch pipes. Pitch pipes change pitch depending on how hard you blow them so how are you supposed to know what the actual pitch is?

Also played with my new bow after Reuben (my old bow) retired balding. The new bow's name is Jarrod. He needs more rosin. Sweet, sweet rosin.

In other news, I bought myself a new mouse for my lappie cos the old one kept cutting out in the middle of important scrolling. And I picked up the Palimpsest books from Kinko's so it's all fame and fortune from here on in. Clearly.
