Don't just stand there
It's been another busy week. I'm pleased.
Tuesday was the quiz night, as mentioned. Wednesday I went to my meditation class. It was one of the best yet. Very, very positive. I came out with a big grin on my face that lasted all the way home. Thursday we had drinks at work, which was fun, and then I went off to the Opera (
Rigoletto), put on by
Opera NZ at the
St James. My first opera. I only turned up because Laurie was in the chorus, but damn it if I didn't enjoy myself. I enjoyed it even more when I noticed the sur-titles, and realised that I could actually follow what was going on. (I missed them at first because I was looking above the stage, and they were off to the side, under the stalls).
I do have to remember that there really isn't much point in expecting to actually see Laurie if I'm going to persist in sitting in the cheap seats. I was right at the back (maybe 2 rows from the back) and I was far enough away that I couldn't make him out. Had a good time though. Probably good enough to want to go back.
Tonight is on the downlow, I'm playing Trivial Pursuit with some NZD people. Nice and relaxing, which is what I feel like (I'm tired and I got up at 5.45 to come into work to watch
the soccer on the big screen).
