Rain and coolness! Core and More! Read this afternoon from the Baker book Mezzanine. There were two references in the text that were puzzling -- Trophonian and Struwwelpeter. After some creative Googling I managed to dig up references to these two words. Trophonian is the adjectival form of the word Trophonius--a Greek god/hero who supposedly built Apollo's temple. The reference in Mezzanine is an architectural association. Struwwelpeter is a strange, old German children's book. The word translates into wire-haired peter/child/boy--a reference to himself as a child. Whew! What else is in that novel? More than be imagined I suppose.

Core and More was a push today. We stayed on the floor with lots of challenging leg lifts and such.

Watched a war film about soldiers in WWII and their encounter with some German soldiers. The film, A Midnight Clear, was done about 20 years ago. It was not a compelling story. It might have been based on some actual events, but wasn't anything very plausible.

PD dance and resistance classes tomorrow! Onward I go!

Still having some problems with DSL connections.
