Stuff going on, holy-crap-it's-December edition

And gosh, is it beautiful out for DECEMBER. Hmm. (Also, it was a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend filled with festive dinners, loving company, theater-tech geekery, some nice downtime and some reasonable productivity. But -- onward!)

Upcoming theater rundown: It doesn't look much like I'm getting to the ASP's much-vaunted Merchant of Venice, since we didn't get there this weekend and it closes next weekend. (Unless I try to go Thursday while Tiger Boy and muchabstracted are seeing Aurelia's Oratorio at the ART? But it's kinda looking like I will desperately need to do website work, if not laundry, this Thursday night. Sigh.) There's also the Central Square Theater's double-header of Einstein's Dreams ("the wry, wild, funny and surprisingly moving adaptation of Alan Lightman's bestselling novel"; remaining shows Dec. 11-14) and Alice's Adventures Underground ("an award-winning adaptation of Lewis Carroll's classic Alice books, featuring outrageous puppets, sets of hand-painted silk and performances by an intergenerational ensemble of actors"; running Dec. 4-7 and 18-28). Tiger Boy expressed more interest in the latter than the former (puppets!), but we have yet to look seriously at available calendar slots anyway. Gah. Anyway, lastly there's mitgsp's Pirates for which I helped hang lights this past weekend, opening this coming Friday.

So that aside, here are my December happenings:
