I got the idea for this thread from another forum, where it has over 19,000 replies and is still growing. (Admittedly, the other board is significantly bigger than TC.) In this thread, people can share all the happenings of their life that they feel like sharing, be they good or bad, big or small, without the guilt of being an attention-horse. The only rule (which is really more like a "guideline"--there are no rules in music) is that your description of happenings must be kept succinct.
To begin: I drove into town (fifty miles each way) today to rent a cello outfit. It was supposed to include a new 4/4 student's cello, bow, rosin, and case. When I got home and opened the case, however, there was everything but the bow. I am now drowning my sorrows (and embarrassment) with Merlot, Tchaikovsky, and Camembert.
