It looks like the piano recital is going to be postponed until all of my teacher's
students who are performing in it are ready. It will possibly be in July, but nothing is
definite. I was hoping the recital would be this month, so I could get it out of the way
and focus on the choral exchange.

I signed up for an LJ permanent account a couple of hours ago. When I first saw the
announcement, I was thinking about doing so, but I forgot. Fortunately, the deadline had
not yet passed. I'm hoping the investment will be worth it.

One other note: I found another puzzle site (www.puzz.com) that has cryptograms. I've
been trying a few. The site mentioned the importance of puzzles in developing lateral
thinking (as opposed to vertical thinking), which I may comment on sometime in the
future. (I think some of my test/interview problems are due to too much vertical
thinking.)
