Missed having a C&M class today. I feel myself losing ground when we don't have a class. Hopefully, when it's less cold and damp, I can resume running some again. My new running shoes feel springy and ready to roll. I'm curious to try them out and see what happens.

It got fairly cool last night and I got up early when my phone went off in the early hours. It was some kind of prank call. However I was already up and about by the time I discovered this fact. So the morning hobbled by as I ate something, tried to keep warm, filled out some forms I needed to mail, getting off to Kinko's and the post office, getting myself mired in a traffic jam, and being late to the H's to continue reading from our newest book--Paris Babylon.

Watched a Truffaut film--400 Blows. I see why it's said to be a masterpiece. It's done so elegantly and seamlessly with an almost unknown child actor in the lead role. The story is told from the child's perspective. It conjures up childhood memories--mine not the boy's! It's an evocative study of a childhood that helps bring the mirror of memory alive and up close. I've seen other Truffaut films, but none have impressed me as this one does. I'm curious as to what I will dream this night.

PD dance and resistance training in the morrow. It will feel good to get back to some of the regimen of the classes.
