sabotabby: raccoon anarchy symbol (monocleyay)

Bits and pieces

+ Went to see Death in Venice at the COC with [livejournal.com profile] chickenfeet2003 and [livejournal.com profile] lemur_catta. It was a gorgeous production, with impressive singing. It was also very true to the novella, which means that it was curiously detached and stylized. (You are supposed to want to punch Aschenbach in the face, right?)

- Still sick. Less than I was last night, where I—this is very rare for me—passed up going for a drink afterward in favour of crashing out at home. I slept a great deal and feel better, but I still might not even need makeup to look like a zombie today.

+ Zombie Walk today! I think I am wearing the absolute worst clothing ensemble ever put together by a human being with working vision.

- My internets are being very, very flaky. If you are trying to reach me and I don't answer, be advised that it is not because I am a rude and nasty person, but because I am connecting to the outside world via two tin cans and a piece of string. To top it off, Yahoo! has decided to reroute all of my LJ-based e-mail into the spam filter, which I only discovered yesterday.

Every time I see the acronym for Canadian Opera Company, I think they're missing out on the opportunity for an hilariously inappropriate ad campaign.

Weird, my yahoo account has suddenly decided to do this too.

Mostly it makes me want to punch Benjamin Britten.

I seem to recall this being the conclusion when I studied it in lit class.
