A handful of updates
Who says going to the gym is good for ya? Turns out I strained some muscles in the back of my left hand. Had to see a doctor, who then went on to recommend me to a physical therapist. Damn. This is going to slow down my writing output.
Discovered, much to my great surprise, that I like opera. I doubt I'll be able to make it to The Pearl Fishers, but they'll be broadcasting it on the local classical station this Saturday at 7:30, so I'll likely tune in. Right now, that same station is playing Norma by Vincenzo Bellini, which I'm enjoying the hell out of. Next month, the Seattle Opera is doing this amazing production from Canada that includes Bluebeard's Castle by Bartok (who I had to play way too much of when I was learning piano as a kid). I'll be looking into tickets for that one. Anyone here interested in opera? :D
Saw a fascinating movie yesterday called The Dark, with Sean Bean. A moody horror movie set on the Welsh coast and dealing with Welsh underworld mythology. Much better than I had expected.
