On Friday I went to a classical music concert. It was surprising how many instruments I could identify in each piece, it really brings me back to Mr. Cerri (I think only 1 person would understand this reference). The conductor was going crazy, he was power tripping because he kept entering and exiting the stage, I think just to earn more applause. I don't really see the big deal in a coductor, I mean I NEVER looked at the conductor. Well maybe every so often, just so he could signal me when I was supposed to play. But besides that, NEVER.
Anyhow, the venue was tiny, I didn't even know it was an entrance. The room was packed with white lawn chairs, upholstered theater type seats, and those chairs pre-schoolers sit in. I thought they were for the little kids, but they were indeed for adults. Luckily, we had the upholstered seats. During the performance the kids would play with their toy dinosaurs on the floor, or somehow wedge themselves between people for a better view. AND people, don't dress up or turn off their cell phone ringer, even worse is they ANSWERED the phone!
Today I had conversation partner. I decided to invite her to my house this week because her house is so dark I can barely see anything. Once she got here she kept commenting how comfortably I lived, I was kinda embarrassed. It's like I'm this punk kid who doesn't really do much of anything but teach, yet I have an apartment 4 times the size of hers. I kinda regretted inviting her over. Plus she got off at the wrong bus stop so I had to search for her for an hour.
And I went to the fabric market. The fabric market is basically a Jo-Anns worse nightmare. It is a whole building of fabrics, and tailors. You can bring a picture or draw a picture of something and someone will make it. Quality not gauranteed, but still, it's pretty cool.
Then I went to a friends house to watch Music and Lyrics and she made BBQ chicken pizza! I haven't had cheese in a loooong time. It was delicious.
