Took the standard walk. Back in plenty of time to open up the Auditorium for the First Monday book talk, this month by Connie, a friend and a writer that I admire. So the event went off fine, she read well from her book, the audience loved it (everybody loves Connie). One little problem. I was supposed to record it. I thought I had, I had her nicely framed and lit on the camera screen, audio just right — but when I went to download the recording, there wasn’t one. I’m not sure what I did; I’m pretty sure I pushed the Record button, but somehow — no recording. I feel like a real schmuck. I apologized sincerely to Connie who was nice about it, but… damn.
Off to FOPAL for three hours of work to get my section ready for the sale this weekend. Back home to mess around, practice my songs for the upcoming performance — which was weeks away, it seemed, until somehow that became this week.
