YEAR 2011

  1. Jan 1. The new year started with a brunch at Ken and Anne's. Good food and friendship.
  2.  Jan 2. Annual cheese and wine splurge at the Solomon's. 
  3. Jan 6. Annual checkup by Dr Falk. My heart is beating more irregularly. He recommends that I cut my usual dose of atenolol in half.
  4. Jan 7. Dr Gurin replaces a filling in one of my molars.
  5. Jan 8. Chaos and Classicism at the Guggenheim. A very interesting examination of the changes in the art world in the early twentieth century. In Germany and Japan you can see the classical modes change into revival of ancient Roman Empire styles under the push by Mussolini and the growth of Aryanism in Nazi Germany. Thought provoking.
  6. Jan 9. Afternoon at the Wagner Society.
