Leveled lev�es levy lives.

I saw the Duchess tonight at the wind quintet concert. I hadn�t seen her since last fall, and only spoke to her a couple of times on the phone. She is all finished her radiation treatments and is feeling well, she�s been weight training and doing aerobic exercise, and is thin and fit and was bragging about her brand new biceps. She�s back in circulation, which means that I will call her soon so we can get together. I really missed her.

The concert was not so great. The ensemble had tuning problems which sort of makes five wind instruments sound like braying donkeys, something I was a little surprised at because this group doesn�t usually have those difficulties. What the hey. The reception afterwards was nice. The students in charge are outdoing themselves with the spreads. That�s special.

I had lunch today with Little Princess� BF, whose parents are back from New Orleans after volunteering again over the March break. He said that the cleanup is going well, but everyone is depressed since it�s only a few short months until hurricane season again, and the lev�es still haven�t been rebuilt. That�s scary.

That�s just about all the news that�s fit to print.
