Right now, I’m suffering with a persistent cough and fever. I don’t know where or whom I got it from, but for the last two days it’s affected my singing, so much so that I’m cracking on high notes that I usually get at with ease. Yesterday I completed transcribing Jobim’s Oficina for piano; it sounds great, and Letty said that I sounded pretty good. She especially liked how I enunciated the words clearly, and was equally impressed with my playing skills.
Things have been quiet. I had a little MySpace drama earlier, but all is well. Yesterday I took a trip to apply for work at the County Courthouse in Brownsville. It was recently renovated, and it is indeed beautiful to behold. The rotunda is set in stained-glass, its traditional designs evoke neo-classicism and Beaux Arts, and it overall was pleasing to me.
After that we went and applied over at a packing plant, then home and meeting tonight. Now I am talking to my surfer friend Rick, who has become enamored of me.
