Still can't access friends' page. Bleh.

I'm back, btw. I managed to survive the trip. Barely. Nasty cold (not bronchitis, I swear *coughcough*), sleep deprivation and screaming, homesick toddler have weakened me, though, so it will be a while before I catch up.

Anything important happen in your lives? Please let me know. I'm struggling with withdrawal here.

Thanks. I'll get better now that I'm home. Travelling does not agree with me. :-(

Oh, the RL sounds nice, besides work, that is. Which P&P? It must be 2005, since the BBC version's soundtrack is Mozart, isn't it? (There are enough notes for it to be his, anyway).

Chicken soup. Now that's a good idea. Bed is also a good idea. I got ten hours of sleep last night, and I'm still tired. And now that I'm mostly caught up with all ya'lls lives (the unlocked versions, anyhow), I think I might do that. After making some soup, that is. :-)

The sheet music I bought is the 2005 P&P -- it's pretty complex stuff. I can manage the simplest piece at about half the intended tempo right now ... but continual improvement is what practice is for, right?

I also have some other stuff on order, including moderately-complex arrangements from S&S, some stuff from Emma, the 1995 P&P, and the songbook from Love Actually that I bought soley for "Glasgow Love Theme," which is the music featured in this fan video: Reflections. The L.A. songbook was rather pricey -- especially since it's coming from the UK with the other book I mentioned -- but it's worth it. (I think this is why I've never really dedicated myself to piano practice before; I never had stuff to play that I actually liked. Even the adult beginner piano books all have "Jingle Bells" and "Hound Dog" in them. Boring!)

I think the 1995 BBC version's music was written for the production, but I don't remember the composer's name. It was terribly complex, though; you're right about that!

I have caught the mother's cold, so I'm taking a half day here at work and going home to snuggy pajamas, a comfortable recliner, and some chicken soup, myself. I doubt I'll be going to my nieces' birthday party tomorrow, and I'm in agony over that -- my older niece was in Vegas with her father on Thanksgiving, so I didn't get to see her then.

Continue resting up and getting yourself better, and I shall endeavor to do the same! *hugs you*
