Odds are that I had worked until midnight of the day (having gone in on the Sunday at 6pm,) gone home, maybe played a little guitar, slept until about 3 in the afternoon and gone to town to go to work even though I probably didn't have to be at work until midnight.

But it's also possible that I had begun working 7pm until 11pm in preparation for the beginning of my senior year.

If that sounds like a drag, know that I was working as an air personality at a local Classic/Alternative Rock station and there's a very, very good chance that I played "One Slip" and cranked up the studio monitors while it played.

This is one of the concerts I was alive for! I won’t state my age or my birthdate so as not to date anyone. I’m just glad to know this magic was happening even in my lifetime.

Also, I posted a comment in another thread that needs moderator approval. I transcribed a piano piece by Richard Wright and was trying to post about it. Can I have a moderator approve it?
