The Spring 2021 semester started on Monday. Late last week, I suddenly started to feel kind of overwhelmed. This, before I had actually gone “back to work” or started any classes. Thus, it became rather apparent that the whole taking-two-French-classes-this-semester thing might be such a good thing. So, I dropped one of them (and worked out a reduced schedule, of sorts, with the professor for the other one).

Part of this is because I am also going to take classical bass lessons again this semester. The last time I had one of those was in 2004! I am half-excited and half-nervous.
