ok. this has really nothing to do with thal. i just decided this morning that i'm going to practice more and talk less. i mean, i do spend a lot of time on this forum. it is not wasted time - per se - but, perhaps...just perhaps - i am completely talked out. i have nothing further to say. not even about mt blanc or why jenny can't play the piano. i was tempted to respond - but then i thought 'i don't even know jenny.' how should i know why she can't play the piano. you see - i do have restraint!
this is soley a choice to get my brain rewired toward practicing the piano in 2007. and, thal has mt. climbing training to focus on. he cannot get distracted by titanium oxygen tanks - although in his delirium i can assure you - he will be begging me to bring him one as he sucks the last bits of air out of his inflatable snowshoes.
peace, joy and love in 2007.
ps i might attempt to post something or other in the piano competition thread that iumonito has posted at the end of january. but, that all depends if i get back to form or not on piano. i mean, i'm not going to post trash if i can help it. the i-pod recording made me so depressed. must return to form.
