Slept in this morning! Finally got up and about around 10am! Went to WFs and made it there just in time--they were dismantling the breakfast steam table items. It was somewhat comical--I was ladling scoops of egg/souffle/sausage out of the pans just as the servers were pulling the trays to make space for the lunch items. After breakfast, I did a few things on my checklist but eventually came back and napped until the NPR program "Says You" began. One of the secret words today was "blickey." I don't recall the second word--had something to do with rancid meat, I think!

Watched a German film this evening--Four Minutes. An intense story of a woman piano prodigy who is mentored by an older woman teacher. The prodigy is in prison ostensibly for murdering someone. She is angry, bitter, and destructive. The older woman slowly builds a bridge to the younger woman and assists her in playing again. The elder woman carries a secret with her that impacts how they interact. The film is powerful and scary--the younger woman goes into rages and fits that no one wants to be the target of. The conclusion is somewhat vague but overall the film is well done.

C&M (last one) tomorrow! And several checklist items that need to be handled! Onward and onward!
