My Weekend

So, I haven't been around all weekend. I turned my computer on yesterday, intending to check LJ. But then I remembered the lovely blue sky, and Matt working outside in the garden, and the nice coffee and blueberry twist, and I turned my computer off and went outside.

So . . . Friday was pretty empty. Went to my parents in the evening.

Saturday - ballet, handed out costume lists. Duck and cover while the parents begin to ask me a million questions I can't answer.

Saturday night I went to the Queensland Ballet . . . with Attitude program which was simply amazing. A full night of contemporary dance, but with this gorgeous balletic twist. There were three programs - the Misa Tango which was choreographed to this stunning Argentinian music. The second program was called Glitch and was 'set' during a technical rehearsal of a ballet, and examined the 'glitches' of pulling music, lighting and costumes together - the dancers just twisted themselves inside out in this one.

The last, longer, program was a version of Wuthering Heights which I've never read, but the ballet was just heart wrenching.

The night made me feel like the 5 year old I was when all I wanted to do is learn ballet.

Yesterday - as mentioned above - I pretty much just spent the day around the house, spending time with Matt.

And so far today I've vaccumed, mopped, dusted, done a load of washing, cleaned some windows, checked my friends list and posted to Live Journal.

My life is just filled to the brim with fun *g*

An education was a bit like a communicable sexual disease. It made you unsuitable for a lot of jobs and then you had the urge to pass it on.
Terry Pratchett, Hogfather

Children today are tyrants. They contradict their parents, gobble their food, and tyrannize their teachers.
Socrates (469 BC - 399 BC)

The whole art of teaching is only the art of awakening the natural curiosity of young minds for the purpose of satisfying it afterwards.
Anatole France (1844 - 1924)

Confidence in nonsense is a requirement for the creative process.
