Now I Is Stock Full of Culture

Were you getting sick of all the TV talk around these parts? Yeah, me too.

Luckily, Nox and I went and stuffed ourselves silly on culture over the weekend, ostensibly to celebrate our two year anniversary.

Shakespeare was seen, jazz was listened too and awesome food was consumed. Midsummer's Night was the play and it was impressively done with a very strong Puck and Mechanicals crew. The four lovers were dull, aside from the fight scene, but I've found that to be a weakness in the play not just the overall performers. The languishing lovers really need to be hammed up to wring more then a modicum of amusement out of them and I've yet to see that tack taken.

We ate dinner at an amazing restaurant. The atmosphere was killer and I wished, briefly, to be rich enough to eat at places like that all the time. The I realized I would wind up looking like a whale.

The jazz was good though I'm not much of a judge of those things. What was really nice was to be outside on a perfect day, reading a book and being with him.

In other news, if I have to argue over the packaging of my food one more time with the lunch truck guy... Every time I buy food off of him, he gives me a nine act play about wrapping the donut in a separate bag etc. Let me be clear. The truck parks outside my building. I walk maybe one hundred feet and ten stairs to get to and from this place. And every time he tries to foist two or three bags on me and tells him things like "But it might get squashed." As if I have no experiance ever with food and the squishabilty thereof. And yes, squishability is a word. It's my word and I will love it just like I love Nox.

See, all things are connected.

Catch you on the flipside,
