It�s 2003, and I�m trying to help my new computer get over its teething problems, of which there are many. This super duper computer is supposed to be so much better than the old one. And yet, on this one, I can�t burn music CDs that don�t skip and crackle and behave in a generally demented way, I can�t get an accurate reading from the clock�yes, a brand new computer with a clock that stops all the time! � and various other things don�t work.

But none of that matters.

Happy New Year!

It�s good to be at home and having a bit of a break with Zan. We�re slowly getting rolling again, practising a little, and teaching a little. On Monday, the course starts, and the greatly exciting news is that Zan joins us on the course on Monday. Yes, she�s signed up to the three-year Alexander Technique teacher training course (about a year and a half behind me), so we�ll be on it together for the forseeable future. This is very exciting, because the training course is such a formative and intense experience, and we�re going to be going through it together!
