 Hours yesterday getting my tire fixed. Huge tow truck guy taught me how to use the inflator apparatus and towed my to the amazingly clean AAA garage downtown. Tow truck guy lives in Alexander with his wife and three little boys. He loves his job, but hated school because he only likes things that are “hands on.”  The tire had a puncture in the sidewall, so it had to be replaced rather than fixed. $250. There was no nail or debris, which strengthens my suspicion of sabotage. But, who knows? 

GMC planning meeting here last night, two hours of talk of staging and choreography and raffles and decorations. I want to stand on the risers in my tuxedo and sing Bach. That voice, except for me, is no longer heard.
