I've survived another choir concert. This one was at EMU and included choirs from some other high schools as well as a choir from EMU. Cordelia had workshops and rehearsals there all day, and the concert was at 7:30 this evening.

Scott and I got a new ceiling fan/light fixture for the bedroom. We haven't put it up yet; that's tomorrow's project. Scott looked for a second pair of trousers at Meijer's and found nothing in his size. I did the grocery shopping while he looked. It was disorienting because neither of us go to that particular store regularly. We had no idea where anything was, and our list form is optimized for the store where we usually shop.

We walked around the EMU campus for about forty five minutes before the concerts, and I hacked quite a few portals that I'd never visited before. That inched me forward a tiny amount on my grind for badges.

The concert was generally good, but my ears seem to be out of synch with each other so that I need to cover one ear in order not to feel like I'm getting piercing feedback whenever the voices get particularly loud. It also makes me feel like my ears are draining which is odd because I don't feel like they're congested. It's puzzling.

Glad the concert went well!

Would ordering pants online work? Being down to just one pair of pants seems alarming!

I need earplugs for most concerts. I wonder if that would help with your ears being out of synch that way.

I finally got Scott to order some pants online. I think he just kept hoping he'd lose enough weight to be able to wear some of the other pairs he owns.

I keep thinking of earplugs after I sit down in the auditorium. They're on my list of things to try, though.

Thanks!

Yeah, I finally put a pair of earplugs in a tiny plastic bag in my purse, so that they are with me when I want them. Otherwise I never remember to pack them. Though also I discovered that a lot of the local auditoriums (eg. Hill Auditorium, and The Ark) have earplugs available free for the asking. I'd had no idea, and had suffered through painfully loud music at concerts without having had any idea that relief was so easily available.
