Coming home to find your lock plate broken off: Scary as shit.


We weren't robbed, but the bottom part of our lock was detached and lying on the floor, just as had been done to force entry into the apartment above us........when I saw the plate on the floor I was so afraid I almost screamed. The thought that we could have been robbed just scared me to death. Someone must have tried to get in, and it's a good thing they didn't succeed....a lot of stuff could have been stolen. We're going to talk to the landlady tomorrow (we called tonight rather late tonigh, and she didn't answer) so we'll see....hopefully having failed on the second attempt they won't try again. In any case, my computer stays with me through thick and thin....if someone stole it I don't know what i would do.....

The rest of my day was OK....Classical Symphony was more interesting today, but nothing has really shaken me up yet in that class. Vocal Workshop was mercifully short because Russell had to perform tonight.....we stopped at 6:00, after only three people (not I!) had sung. I talked to two more people about doing the Schütz, and they're both down with it....all I need to do now is find another woman and either convince Mike to sing Tenor II or try talking to Matt....I don't really know Matt, though, and I doubt that Schütz is his thing. The problem with both of them also is that they have very distinctive voices (Matt's especially) and I don't know how they would work in a group, especially the group I have so far. I guess I'll have to sing, but I was hoping to play piano....oh well. We'll see. Nothing much else happened...I bought a Scheiß-load of groceries at Hofer today, so hopefully I really won't have to go shopping for a while.....I got staples like pasta, sauce, bread, cheese, yogurt, things like that.....not the specific stuff like sausage and other things where quality is important....I buy those at Merkur. Nick and I made some awesome pasta with Hofer sauce as the base and adding green bell peppers, onion, garlic, oregano, and this lovely sausage that he had bought whose name escapes me....oh it was delicious! I listened to music for a while after dinner.....I also saw that tomorrow they're doing Franco-flemish high renaissance motets at the Konzerthaus, so hopefully I can get tickets for that tomorrow! (yay!) Now for early bedtime!

[note to self: Nick is out with Beth......yeah I don't know what's going on with that......it's not terribly late, but still....he asked me to "wish him luck....."]
