chanalehWhy was I so tired last week? 'Cause I had, among other things, three shul meetings in as many days. The good news, though, is that the Board passed my proposal to bring in [what we will surely begin affectionately calling] the "Frydenberg siddur" as an option for Friday nights. Yay!
Friday was yet another Clean-Out Day at work (because we're moving offices in May, a whole block and a half), so I spent much of it on hands and knees consigning old piles of paper to the recycling, which was tiring but satisfying. After shul, an impromptu dinner outing to the S&S with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
missaligator and cohorts. Then I went home and rested.
Saturday: after shul, went to read Talley & Son with the![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
theatreatfirst gang, then an impromptu early-dinner outing to Johnny D's (where I actually finally managed to see Jane Sherrill's paintings on display!). Then the housewarming/early-b'day chez laurens10 and tapuz, where the principal fun activity of the evening turned out to be making mezuzot (out of Sculpey). I haven't done that since the ones I made for jessruth, and I got a little (okay, a LOT) more freeform with this version. It was fun.
Sunday: absolutely gorgeous buffet brunch at the Blue Room as our after-the-fact cast party for Talley's Folly. Then Tiger Boy and I went on to see the North Cambridge Family Opera Co. production of Space Opera! We couldn't convincegremionis to come along, but muchabstracted and then kalessin met up with us there. And of course there were a whole bunch of Tremont St. folks in the audience, there to root for our own. I am, if possible, even more enamored of David Sandberg after seeing him engage in light-saber combat ;-) but his daughter Ilana, age ~10, totally stole the show as Luke. Wow. All y'all with little geeklets should definitely take them next weekend.
Tonight at MIT, 7pm: The Great Latke-Hamantashen Debate!
