Competition for scarce resources
Pet shopping…
Calista goes Texan
Happy Holidays and thanks for the annual chance for
me to push pictures of Calista on everybody. We’re
fairly settled down in Houston now and enjoying the
town (I know… I wouldn’t believe either, if I didn’t live
here) as well as work at the Symphony and at Rice,
neither of which (as of this writing) seem to have
gotten wise to me yet. As I get older and crankier, I
find there’s a lot to be said for 70 degree days in
December. We’re at the vanguard of Global Warming!
Shu-Ching (and Evelyn’s)
Birthday
Plotting a coup
Evelyn (and/or Shu-Ching) continues on the faculty of
Teachers College in NYC and has been playing both
there and here, while I spent the year attempting to
corner the market for playing in music festivals in
weird destinations that nobody would go to on
purpose. I’m also shopping for a new (well, old) cello,
as I’m hoping to be able to spend more time with IRS
auditors. Calista is in Kindergarten now and at this
point is probably the most cogent member of the
family… but then she gets the most sleep. She’s
studying violin, piano, ballet etc.. hopefully, only
enough to look good on Med School applications. We
have a guest house sitting unused, so please call if you
someday get the uncontrollable urge to visit Houston.
Happy Holidays- we hope to see you in the New Year.

The search for Alan Gilbert’s
successor begins…
