nobody owns anything and everyone is free

so, um, wow. we went to cirque du soleil today, and it was ubertastic. scrumtrulescent. i sat and gaped in open-mouthed amazement, occasionally realizing that i was shrieking with delight. there were contortionists, acrobats, trapezists, jugglers, unicyclers... i can't even begin to describe how wonderful it was. here's a link to the cirque du soleil site, and select kooza under shows: http://www.cirquedusoleil.com. it might give you an idea of its fantastic-ness.

yesterday we went to the stratford festival and saw an ideal husband by oscar wilde. it was great fun. i was surprised by how many famous quotes i recognized. it made me want to see the importance of being earnest.

later we went to some brother's house to watch a movie, and instead of watching clever and witty comedy, we watched transformers. mind-numbing transformers. but it was fun. we got to hang out with some very cool people, including a guy who knew gio and michelle in oliver many years ago.

oo and today after the circus we went to 'the clothing show'. it was an exhibition of vintage and original clothes and accessories. i could have spent bazoodles of dollars, but i didn't have that. i bought a hat instead. and walked away filled with inspiration for things i probably will never make. much cheaper than this coat that i will dream of for the next year.
