February 1, 2015

This week in orchestra we rehearsed The Planets. Scott said "Last week I had someone ask me why there was no Earth in The Planets." I REALLY wanted to say that it was because Earth hadn't been discovered yet.

After the same rehearsal we were striking the stage. One of my fellow crew members attempted to throw a plastic stand across the stage into the stand rack. It flipped upside down as it sailed through the air and hit the stage with a tremendous crash. The flat plastic part broke in half, ruining the stand. The best part was that none of us had even tried to stop him; we were watching the proceedings with interest.

In music history class we have been learning about one of Stravinsky's most famous ballets: What's Left of Autumn.

This weekend was mostly filled up with life-maintenance busywork which does not warrant inclusion in a blog, except for my trip to GGP today. I found some caches I've had my eye on for months, explored the Botanical Gardens for the first time and revisited some old spots. A very satisfactory trip overall.

A Lenten rose??

Now here's something you don't usually see.

Bloody violists never shower

You see this kind of stuff a lot around here.
