Memories and Music...
Work was short today. Closed at 3:30 so we could all go to the memorial/tribute for my boss, who died in May. Was really nice. Some lovely (and some funny) stories shared, an awesome video presentation, and lots of people from all over the country. Was something he would have liked, I think.
I was Anthony's ride there, so I offered him a ride home since I go right past his apartment. He needed to stop in the Borders next door to the hotel to get his brother's birthday present, so I looked at CDs while we were there. I found two Anuna CDs!! So pleased! Played one on the ride home, so he could hear this arrangement of a Sanctus that I was crazy about. Anthony's my music buddy at work. He's the one I swap CDs and talk music theory with. He predictably loved the song too. I love that we have the same taste in music. If the Boston thing works out, him I'll miss. It's been nice to read things in the paper or hear new music and go bang on his office door and have someone to share it with.
He found one of those little kit things while we were waiting on line, and laughed and showed it to me. It's a fairy catching kit. I laughed and told him that you'd have to save the ones you caught, like in the Pressed Fairy Book. He had no clue what I was talking about, and when I explained it, the look on his face!! SO FUNNY! Like he couldn't decide to be amused or digusted. Was hysterical. He promised to look it up, and I can't wait to hear what he thinks about it.
On the Boston note, they emailed me to say that they got my second reference, so now I'm waiting to see what happens next.
