Sep. 14th, 2015 10:45 amThe extracurricular activities are piling up, but not all at the same time, thank goodness. This week I have the first HRC rehearsal on Wednesday, for which I have to remember to bring a check so I can pay dues and music fees. On Thursday I have dinner in Kenmore Square somewhere and then the MRI.
On Sunday I start voice lessons again, with a new teacher. I decided that was important, and wanted to keep doing it.
On October 2 there's an Alzheimer's walk in Foxboro, which I'm doing because my aunt has early-onset AD and that's plain old not fair.
On October 25 I might be crossing something off my bucket list by going to the Patriots/Jets game. It was either that or the Patriots/Jaguars game in two weeks, but having just told my new voice teacher that I keep my Sundays open, I'd look like a flake canceling my second lesson.
As for the curricular activities (everything I get paid for is curricular activities, as I'm the DMD Curriculum Coordinator), I finally tracked down the supplies guy and got him to acknowledge the email I sent in August about the supplies for the PD2 Oral Health Day on October 14. I've got to send out the agenda and the June minutes for the Curriculum Committee on September 22, put together an exercise for the basic science course directors meeting on September 23, finish the Continuing Education course application for the retreat on October 20, finish the pre-retreat exercise to send out to the course directors by October 13, figure out what supplies I need for the retreat and order them, and so forth. Get me through October and everything else is coasting until Christmas (with a chorus concert on December 5).
I put the quilt back on the bed over the weekend and unleashed the usual confusion among the feline population, who are now kicking each other off the top lefthand corner of the mattress all night. Snip always starts there, but by the morning it's always either Lily or both. Silly beasts. Sooner or later they'll sort it out and end up in a sprawling furry puddle down around my ankles someplace. Preferably in such a way that I have to wake up and readjust my foot instead of just rolling over, but they wouldn't be cats otherwise.
