learning experience

I was going to see a jazz band in the park, so I invited along some jazz lover friends of ours. They kindly brought along a picnic rug and some wine, but that turned it into a natterfest, and I was trying to listen to the music.

As the designated driver I was the only sober one, and when I went off to find myself some lunch I was seen as a party pooper. I copped a lecture on the way home. Allegedly as the jazz instigator it was my responsibility to stick around until everyone else had enough booze and chatter.

Will I never learn? If you're serious about something you have to go it alone.

But the day was not a total washout, as I introduced 3 or 4 new yoga poses to my routine tonight. I found them in a book. That's progress. And I made a fantastic dessert tonight - chopped up nectarine with creamy natural yogurt.

PS After wasting another couple of hours trying unsuccessfully to modify the black background, the best I could manage was a different colour for the surround. I know when to give up. Since I started blogging, blog templates have evolved to be much more complex, and life's too short to learn advanced CSS.
