Opera
I really should stop reading all these tragic love stories. They're not good for me. All I end up doing is moping about longing for smoething I will never have :( Life sucks.
On the other hand I have discovred that sky arts 2 has a bi weekly opera thing happening :D I spent this eve listning to L'troi d'orange (please excuse my apalingly bad french spelling) Which was fun but frustrating as the cable decided to go on the fritz for 5-10 min near the end so I missed a handfull of plot. Of course M had a huffy cause I was actually watching something when she came in but really, it is not often that I am actually unwilling to switch over,even mid program, but I felt it was unfauir of her to expect me to just because it was an artform she has little or no apreciation of. She'd have gone off the deepend if I had come in halfway through her watching a movie and demanded that she turn over because there was a program on a main channel(which in most likely hood will be repeated) that I happened to want to see when I had given her no warning! Stupid woman.
It was housemate J b'day today. she went out with N for a meal. By the time I had gone to bed they were having a blazing row downstairs which I had to brave to fill my hot water bottle as it is just too damn cold in my room to go to sleep without one :( all in all a slightly strtessy overtome to the eve generated from the people around me which I could happily have done without. Tomorrow I am meeting kev for lunch and I'm meant to be meeting Dave on fri.
