More New Technology

Today I received my new Windows smartphone, which is my Foundation cellphone.  Quite a steep learning curve as I am not particularly tech-savvy, but it promises to be a very handy tool to keep on top of work when I'm away from my computer.  I spent a satisfying day completing some of my outstanding new hire related tasks and can safely say that now the training wheels are off and I'm starting to function and fill my role.

I'm looking forward to spending the weekend playing string quartets on Guemes Island, one of the San Juan Islands.  Getting there involves a 2 hour drive to Anacortes and a short ferry ride; we're planning to meet at the Anacortes Cinema to watch the Metropolitan Live Opera broadcast of 'Cav & Pag' on Saturday morning. This necessitated an after-work jaunt downtown on the monorail to buy a warm sweater (Nordstrom Rack - Seattle is the birthplace of Nordstrom's) and some wine (for apres-quartets). The cello and I are all packed and the alarm is set for 6 am!
