moving at different speeds. A sense of humor is just common
sense, dancing." -- William James [

04:53 pm - Korobeiniki
I had an amazingly frustrating and painful week of fibro
flare plus insomnia last week, and a less painful but still
rather frustrating week this week where I had trouble getting
out to do stuff. But I'm feeling enough better that I did
finally manage to get my driving license renewed yesterday
(couldn't do it on my birthday 'cause that's a federal holiday,
and I was also worried I might fail the eye exam), and am
doing okayish today despite having tried to squeeze a bit
too much into yesterday. Will try to actually type in some
of the half-composed-in-my-head journal entries that have
been building up.
I'm looking forward to a party this evening, and since
it's a musician's party, this seems a good time to post this
musical video:
three people playing "Korobeiniki" (the music for Tetris)
on glass bottles. (Found via 'related videos'
link on a video suggested by
