I received an email from my older sister that she can't come in for Thanksgiving, but will be here at Christmas. So I'll have duck breast rather than veggie lasagna for dinner. But who will make the chocolate chip cookies for my open house on Sunday? That's her area of expertise!
My phone service was finally restored yesterday morning. Question: when service/delivery people give you a window of time for when they'll arrive, to they ever get to you at the beginning of the window? Because I swear they always get to me last!
Opera last night - Salome. Deborah Voight was in luscious voice, though the choreography of the Dance of the Seven Veils left much to be desired. Sets, lighting and costumes were fabulous. We all lusted for Herod's peacock robe and peacock feather headdress.
Because we'd changed our tickets to Saturday, and so weren't coming from work, and because it's a short opera, we decided to have dinner afterwards, and went to Starfish for sushi. (Warning: there's music when you click the link.) Being all very hungry, we ordered lots of stuff and shared. We had a good time and closed the place down!
This afternoon, I'm going to see Hotel Cassiopeia, a play about the artist, Joseph Cornell. There's a gallery right by the theatre (both part of the University of Chicago) that is displaying a few of his works, so I think I'll stop by beforehand.
Tuesday night is the annual Latke-Hamantash debate. I've marked my calendar.
I'm still feeling some aftereffects of being hit by that car. I'm having some pain in my right arm when I make certain kinds of movement, so if it doesn't get significantly better in the next day or so, I'm going to head back to the doctor.
Friday, of course, is the big shopping day. So FieldsFansChicago.org has organized a protest at "Macy's". What the website doesn't tell you is revealed in an ad in the Chicago Maroon )the U of C student paper): "We will provide 1890's dresses & 1890's hats for you and your fellow students to wear when you join us at a fun, unique protest rally." I don't see how I can possibly pass this up!
