Weird week.

The backlash that I was expecting happened, but not at me. Yay!!! Well, "yay" for me, anyway. I'm sure the back-lashee is not feeling so great.

Apparently my e-mail initiated some data crunching and a team-wide realization that "all is not well in the universe". There was a flame-o-rama e-mail war yesterday and I was left out of the loop! Yay!!!!

Cal Shakespeare Festival show last night. We saw "The Triumph of Love" at the Bruns memorial theater in Berkeley (Orinda side of tunnel). [personal profile] hrj made a great dinner and Pinkie brought a thigh-destorying dessert. The production was excellent and I laughed my butt off. I am utterly amazed at the versatility of the lead actress who played a woman cross dressing as a youth and who then courts 2 different men (who learn she is a woman dressed as a man trying to escape the evil Princess... without revealing that she IS the evil princess) and a woman (who believes she is the youth), switching her projected gender to suit the suitor. Quite amazing and inspiring.

So far this season, Cal Shakes is 3 for 3. My summary

Richard III - tragedy: He dies, she dies, everyone dies.
Man and Superman - comedy: You can run, but you can't hide from love.
Triumph of Love - comedy: Choose love before it chooses you. And beware sudden passions.

Coming up: King Lear.
