    I’ve been working particularly hard on my weight training over the winter months and been eating like mad to gain more muscle size.
    Added ¼ inch on the arms and 1 inch on my chest measurements and hardly any fat on my waist.
    So I’m very Happy!

    Dishonest taxi drivers. If I ever go on a killing spree...

    Glad things are going well. The photo suggests that you may be building pectorals directly, rather than deepening the chest with bench presses?

    Well, this is how things have been for me:

    Wednseday night (Leap Day), performed in Orchestra concert, went great. Friday night went to other ensemble concert to watch, was great. Saturday night went to another ensemble concert to watch, was great. This Monday night, I perform again in another ensemble concert. Hope it will finish off this School of Music's concert series great as well.

    Either you are having a helluva run, or you are easy to please. Either way, congratulations.

    They were all excellent performances, the best players of the school of music. Worthy of being professional level.

    If this is what's been on my mind lately, does it mean I'm taking my job too seriously? Also, LEAK! (Not that any of you are serious enough gamblers to care about it...)

    I had no idea you did this. I'd love to hear stories.

    I'd be surprised if the taxis are monitored. There must be at least tens of thousands of them. And the majority are great - it's that one or two a month who think they can get away with going three or four blocks out of the way. I bet it'd happen more often if my taxi-Korean wasn't good.

    When two people with the exact same name check in to a hotel, the human element of the check-in process becomes a huge factor. And it made a huge mess today. Ugh. Well, at least I know that my supervisors are human, too.

    So I got on facebook and I saw this:
    ian bostridge.JPG
    Only it didn't say "about an hour ago" at the time, it said "23 minutes ago." That restaurant is 5 blocks from my apartment. So, shameless celebrity stalker that I (apparently) am, I went sprinting down the stairs, out of the building, and into Chinatown to see if he was still there. He wasn't, and the restaurant was closed, meaning he was probably there last night or something. I don't know what I would have said to him anyway, probably something along the lines of "You're Ian Bostridge. You have a beautiful voice." (Because of course he's not already aware of these things.) So I went back to my apartment, thinking, Well, at least I know he's in Philly, maybe he has a recital tonight. Turns out he had a recital last night. Poop.

    On monday ticket sale starts for the DNO production of Parsifal in June, and im getting so excited that I spent a lot of my work hours reading analyses of the music and story on the internet.
