Saturday night – reading writing

Dan and I are really enjoying our stay in Pittsburgh. It’s so great to spend this time with Larry and Leah.  This morning Leah and Diane went out to get some breakfast stuff and brought it back. My friend Jocelyn, who is a music professor at CMU came over to talk with me and Larry. I introduced Jocelyn to Larry and they’ve had a couple of collaborations which is pretty cool. Jocelyn is a, very skilled accompanist and is interested in the entrainment between the minds of the accompanist and soloist.… She’s gotten involved in the projects around ‘jam  state’ and meaningful silence that I’m peripherally  involved in… It’s  fun to have made that connection.

This morning we took off on a hike to see our old house. We walked about 5 miles there and back… Through light rain. It was lovely. It’s clearly spring here and they’re probably a month ahead of us flowers and leaves and trees and all that business.


Here’s our old neighborhood and house. it looks great.. it was such a nice place to live ! I’m glad someone is taking good  care of it 30 year later (wow !) 

we headed up to the blue slide park and back along frick park


This evening was really special… Larry and Leah hosted a wonderful dinner with my friends Mar and Matt , Larrys aid Heather and her bf Randy and  Larry and Leah’s friend Michelle D .. and expert in handwriting analysis. She’s the author of Sex Lies and Handwriting 
. Shes done work for the FBI, many lawyers and all sorts of celebrity.. she’s created a science out of analyzing the white people right to link it to their personality. Dinner was really fun and delicious… It was great all hanging out then Michelle asked us all to write something… Anything… In long hand and she analyzed all of us then the job was for her to read out her descriptions without mentioning the name and having us guess who it was. Some people were really easy.. for example Mar and Larry.. But some people were really difficult… Including me.… It was wonderful to hear all the features that she described of people and once you actually associated them, they made a ton of sense. I had lots of ideas going in different directions and sort of like a “composer”… Seemingly chaotic but then bringing things together at the end.… I agree with that

Diane’s handw writing said that she’s extremely intelligent (got that!) And grounded. Also dead on. I’ve got to remember the other adjectives.
it was super fun


it was a wonderful and fun evening
