Hiatus Over

To paraphrase the pianist Paderewski*:

If I don't practice for one day, I know it; if I don't practice for two days, my partner knows it; if I don't practice for three days, everyone in the room knows it.

I have not practiced since May 30.

Until last night. A corollary to Paderewski:

If I don't practice for two weeks, even the cats know it. They run for cover.

After a couple of hours, I have regained the ability to walk. That's about it.

Tonight, Blue Ice, 7 p.m.

If I leave now, I can practice for a half hour before class and might be able to avoid sending my classmates from running for cover.

(See the real quote by going to this link and searching the page for Paderewski.)
