Did two good Handel concerti with Kristen yesterday, and one fine ('La Poule') Haydn symphony, the weather being perfect as only (late now) Virgo in Spokane can be: The aridity, genial warmth, freshness! Kristen is making extensive plans for my birthday celebration this year, delaying it a day past the exact anniversary of the sacred event so that Marianne can attend, which is fine by me since it makes me the lovely Libra I have always wanted to be, rather than the dun, prudent Virgo I actually am.
