How can you tell me you're lonely; say for you the sun don't shine
Having a quiet morning. wingedelf is off at the Oregon Coast w/ his love. scootercomputer is away for some one-on-one time with his Gramma. So, it is just darkmuffin and i home with the critters. Spent some time on the phone with a dear friend, with my niece, and with my sister. Then darkmuffin and i played some Team Fortress 2... until blood sugar and the movement of the game made me nauseous. So he brought me breakfast in bed. :)
We'll play some more in a bit... then we'll meet my mom and scootercomputer for some food and to retrieve the boy... then home for some housework/schoolwork. Not sure when wingedelf will be home - sometime before "night." :)
Last night was pretty wonderful. darkmuffin and i were joined by my friend A and her daughter W... we went to see the New Works rep at the Pacific Northwest Ballet. One world premier and two more PNB premiers. They went from most closely resembling ballet to not at all like ballet (other than it was choreographed on ballet dancers). We all had a really great time and i am glad we did it. i get to see it again next Friday with wingedelf and then a third time on Saturday with wingedelf and his love. i am SO glad i really enjoyed it... if i hadn't, then Friday/Saturday would be really unpleasant experiences. i am especially looking forward to see it from a couple different vantage points. Last night we were in the Second Tier (love those $28 seats... especially with a BOGO free coupon), so i was able to get a vision of the big picture. Next Friday we'll see it from our standard seats - Orchestra Center, row D (4 rows back from the stage) - which means we'll really be able to see the expressions and fine movements of the dancers, but we do miss the big picture view. i'm not sure exactly where our Saturday tickets are, but i suspect they are Second Tier again... but not the same seats so it'll look a bit different... oh and next weekend will have different casts dancing the roles, so that will be fun, too!
Next year i am going to make a point to pick up extra PNB bogo coupons from the Chinook Book (from those who buy them but won't be using them) - i think i'd like to make this a bit of a tradition.
