My big toe is very nearly back to normal. I took a walk over to the farmers market. Tomorrow will be another picnic supper day, when the dining services crew prepare brown-bag meals to be picked up after lunch, and leave early. On the 6th floor, most people meet in the floor dining room at 5:30 for a group picnic. Last year (I think it was) I prepared a bowl of pitted cherries for one of these occasions. I think I will do the same, since the market is full of delicious looking ripe fruit. I got cherries, apricots, and seedless mandarins. Tomorrow I will do that.
At noon I went up to 11 and set up the sound system for a meeting. The presenter, who turned out to be a professor of engineering, had already connected his laptop to the TV, so I didn’t have to help with that. Love “helping” techy people.
Spent the afternoon preparing the video recording of the drama scenes show. I described this on Wednesday. 40 minute show of a short scenes, extracts from various plays and movies. I had video’d both performances but in the end I only used the evening show. Split out each scene with a little flip-flop video transition between them. It looks ok.
I also made a start at collecting the videos for the C&W event planned for September, now the committee has selected what they promise is the “final” list of numbers. Lots of time to work on that.
