Also, yay puppy!
Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The worst thing I can imagine in Staples just happened--I tested our corporate discount, and it's not consistent, but was more than 20% in this go round.
Wow, Grey's Anatomy feels like it's pulling further and further away. The big decisions they made with this season are blah.

Puppies are rarely not Yay-worthy.
I really liked Ingmar Bergman's The Magic Flute if you're looking for a good film adaptation of an opera. Sometimes it seems like it's just a filmed stage production except when you seamlessly realize that it's not.
Mostly though with opera I'm in the "too many notes" camp -- I can for sure see (and HEAR) that it's highly trained musicians performing flawlessly complicated music, but I just can't keep up.

Ah, Coca-Cola, the duct tape of sodas. I've just used a bottle to clean some persistent stains in my bathroom sink and toilet bowl, and it did a much better job than Comet or Scrub-free.
In other news, I'm not drinking Coca-Cola anymore.

Drink Coca-Cola! Your stomach will be stain free! That penny you swallowed when you were five doesn't stand a chance!

And I find the acting to be appallingly bad. I mean, I worked on student productions, but the school is ranked 2nd in the country for opera/vocal performance, so I am thinking they are actually pretty good!
Theatre geeks are as one. The acting is usually terrible. I'd almost wish they'd just stand and sing.

I really wish I had some Diet Coke with Lime, now. Yum. I think I would have to pu on actual clothes to make that happen, though.
Oh, wait, I have flavor syrups for the Sodastream! I wonder what I have left.

Score, diet cola! No lime, but it'll do.
