I have to confess: with the exception of the 4th movement (which is quite amazing, beautiful... very Brahmsy :)), I'm not a big fan of Brahms 1. I really don't want to say that it's boring, but... I liked Brahms 4 much better. But that's no excuse for the fact that we have the first concert in a week, and I just sight-read the inner movements of the Brahms Symphony in rehearsal tonight. Bah.

Peet's Coffee & Tea is my new favorite place. Their drinks are not only delicious, but pretty strong... wow. Not just today, but the last couple of times I went there as well. I liiiiike it :)
