I successfully completely my first day at the Lions Foundation. In keeping with what little experience I've had with office jobs, the first day was a bit slow. I did a lot of reading of manuals and got to know a few people, including a really interesting non-practicing (?) Jewish lady who also works as dance instructor. We had a fun conversation about music structure and how it relates to dance. Her husband was a jazz musician, and she had to come up with her own breakdowns of movement patterns to relate to his musical ideas. The description fit very well with a physicalization of Schenkerian Analysis, my favorite branch of music theory.
Fun for me. Strange for you.
Also helpful in spicing up the day was a one pound box of chocolates from my new supervisor.
