quesarahThere was Art, there was Mexican food, there was lots of surfing on Sunday. I mean, lots. My shoulders are unhappy with me for a) making them paddle against a longshore current for a long time and b) getting them all sunburned. But it was FUN! Afterwards ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
bobamster and I ate the kind of meal that one can only properly enjoy when one has spent an inordinate amount of time in the water: giant veggie burritos from one of the the little stands on Washington. We further cemented our bond as "surfing brahs" by belching in front of each other. Now we just need to drink beer and check out women...
*****
The first chorus rehearsal was Sunday evening and I am already excited about the concert. February is Black History month and March is Women's History month; our concert will be held on the last Saturday of February in celebration of both. We have some cool pieces we're revisting as well as interesting new music. We're doing a modern Indian piece by Victor Paranjoti based on traditional raga melodies. It's. So. Cool. So, if anyone happens to be in San Diego then, drop in and have a listen. ;)
Also, one of the members made a DVD of our Montreal performance and is making a copy for me. Do any of the locals have the gear to rip files from DVD's? I'd like to put a couple song files online so my family can "see" part of the show. Lemme know, k?
*****
Finale of Six Feet Under was intense, pretty good tv. Not great, but that's been the story of the whole season. I liked some of the revelations regarding Lisa's disappearance. Very cool. But. I have a nitpick. James Cromwell needs to be grabbed about the neck and throttled vigorously.
The word. Is. Nuclear. It is pronounced nook-lee-ar not nook-yoo-lar. If he persists in pronouncing it like a half-witted spoiled rich Texas politician I will have no recourse but to thrash him publicly. That is all.
Okay. Work to do. Ciao.

Date: 2004-09-13 02:54 pm (UTC)James Cromwell; from Stretch Cunningham on "All in the Family" to Farmer Hoggitt in "Babe" to the guy who shot himself in front of Vanessa Williams in "Eraser" (I'd never have shot myself in front of Vanessa!) I don't know if he has range, but he gets a variety of rolls.
