Next Last night I went
to a dance performance that Jeff was house managing (that means it was
free) called Subali-Sugriwa: Bali and India Unite in a New Work of
Music and Dance. They performed the Ramayana, which is "an epic tale
of good and evil". I'll spare you too many details. I was too tired to
enjoy
the performance entirely. There was a man heading one of the dance
companies who danced for most of the middle section of the evening, only
letting his "5 women representing 6 generations (?) - my pride and joy"
dance for the tiniest little bit. The women shone like the briefest of
comets, and I couldn't help coming away feeling as if I had a better sense
of a woman's place in those societies than I did a sense of what that epic
tale was all about. Oh, well. The costumes were elaborate and pretty.

A Woman's Work . . .
Exercise log:
Too sore from Thursday's Leg-o-Rama
I'm fighting the urge to redesign my website. If it was a rainy day, I'd
do it, but it's gorgeous outside: probably 80 degrees already and sunny
without a trace of fog. I have grand plans for the day - laundry (while
laundry is in, catch a quick brekkie at Mama's Royal Cafe), put my new
summer duvet cover (freshly washed) on my bed so I don't wake up drenched
in this weather, mow the lawn (we have this ridiculous electric lawn mower
that has an annoying cord . . . it will serve as my exercise for today,
however), put up my new tent (bought months ago for Spain but never
opened) and seal the seams so it's ready for use this summer, shower,
shave and go to Melissa's birthday barbeque at 4pm. What am I doing
putting up a journal entry? I haven't time for this! I'm currently reading:
Confidence of the
Heart by David Schweidel, who is teaching my Intermediate Fiction
Writing course this summer.
