Just finished Kavalier & Clay.

That...that was brilliant.

And I'm not going to be good for anything else tonight.

I feel like I have to just sit and...soak up.

Which is a perfect thing to do while watching an incredibly slow, unengaging videotape of Die Walkure (my opologies to opera fans, but...::shudders::)
Music:: somebody making some kind of snapping sound in the common room
Mood:: 'indescribable' indescribable

I sing opera. One a semi-pro basis (I once preformed on stage with denise graves... about six feet away from her in the chorus of Aida...) and I still hate hate hate that opera, because it never. ever. ends.

I'm an enthusiastic opera fan myself and don't think you need to feel guilty either. One of my best friends is currently trying to convert me to Wagner but I still find whole operas rather soporific (though with wonderful moments). Apparently Meistersingers is more accessible.
