a slow and steady winter

58 days until the vernal equinox
Delaney did dance at a performing arts high school once so she’s gotten to know a lot of artists. She’s impressed that I could draw them in so little time and that I could do it while standing. She had rectangular dangly earrings.
Mika isn’t an artist. She just does sportsball. She was holding a rose and a few other flowers and had a bunch of silver rings on her hand.
Johanna doesn’t know Delaney or Mika but she did see the drawings. She’s not an artist either.
I went to Boston Halal and got a spicy falafel rice bowl with chettinadu sauce on it, which is made with spices, onions, and herbs. I'll definitely be back again to have masala fries or beetroot kebab.
I think the Japanese people next to me were the same ones as last time. I was in the same seat.
Guy seated behind me bought a Beethoven cookie because he didn’t have dinner but since it’s so kitsch, he wants to frame it.
I think her name was Casey. She was wearing a green coat over a red coat and I thought of Sammy from Wayside School, who, instead of your traditional three dead rats in a trenchcoat, was one dead rat in a bunch of trenchcoats. She wanted to grab an empty seat in the front row but the guy said it’s Murphy’s Law, its rightful owner will walk right through the door.
And the concert was about to start.
One of them, or maybe someone else was talking about doing that and then saying that they always mix up left and right.
I always get this number mixed up because Glazunov’s Pastoral is 7 and because at a glance, the odd numbers tend to be more ambitious and large scale and modern.
It’s not the first narrative musical work ever.
The last three movements, a peasant dance interrupted by a thunderstorm and then a song of thanks, are merged together. As the fifth movement begins, you can still hear the thunder in the distance. There are two trombones and a piccoolo, which was unusual at the time.
It has been performed approximately 252 times.
I’ve seen the seventh symphony multiple times this decade already. I’ll point out that before, the symphony had been performed approximately 498 times and with two performances, that puts it up to 500. You’d think it would be the opposite because 6 got a segment in Fantasia and even had a snippet played on The Simpsons and Pinky & The Brain, but I suppose it is a favorite of a lot of people, my mom included.
For the record, the least performed is the first.
When I got to Symphony Station, a train just left but another train pulled in. Because there was only about a minute between them, the train I was on remained more or less empty.
burning question: why do we need an iron dome? To shoot down missiles from where, exactly? Canada?
