Quick update

Have a party to go to, but I thought I'd give a quick update. First, saw the Bacchae today. Very well done. The R & B theme to the chorus worked, the sets and acting was mostly fantastic, and seeing the play in the Rose Theater space made it really feel like you were in 4th century Athens. And of course, this is the role Alan Cumming was born to play.

Also, Mike Daisey gave me a shout out today, which has me theater geeking out. Equally geeky is learning that Hal Brooks has a blog, where he most recently gave fellow of U of C alum Jason Zinoman props. Cool deal.

Now I'm off to drink in Park Slope, two weeks after taking the magical G train to the same house two weekends ago. For a Manhattanite, this is like entering Willy Wonka's chocolate factory, all the way down to the purple vomit on the subway car floor. I may be taking the G train again tomorrow to see the Breeders at McCarren park. This is a bad omen for the apartment hunt...
