The second concert for this year was Renee Fleming. Although I’m not always into opera, Ms Fleming is legendary and it was a really nice concert. The orchestra was also wonderful. Here are some videos and pics. [shashin type=”album” id=”85″ size=”medium” crop=”n” columns=”max” caption=”y” order=”date” position=”center”]

Rain?
It is pouring down raining and it is March 26! I cannot remember the last time it rained this time of the year. My first year here, it poured and poured rain for about three days flooding the streets. However, it rained in February. This is extremely strange weather….It looks like it is going to last all day…. It’s raining, it’s pouring…. π -T π

It’s been an interesting few days, I must say. I have realized how very sensitive I am to others’ and their needs. I have also come to understand just how much I give and need to be given back to for fulfillment. When I start to care about people, I tend to give too much perhaps in hopes that by giving everything they could want they will never leave me. However, I also…

Abu Dhabi Music & Arts Festival: Herbie Hancock
This has to be one of my favorite times of the year even though it coincides with my spring break.

Back to ‘Normal’
I think I have recovered from my little slump. Hormones are a killer – but at least they do not make everything drastic nor me overly insane. π In fact, I feel pretty good and happy. Yay for me! haha. π -T

A Little Slump
Yesterday, I hit a little slump. However, I think I’m over it now – not sure just yet. π There were a number of things that hit me for some reason…. *Change to my schedule at work – I really do not do well with sudden changes. It unsettles me at my core. Of course, I like to think I am flexible or open-minded, but am I? I guess it depends on what…

_The Barkeep_ by William Lashner
_The Barkeep_ by William Lashner I finished reading this a couple of months ago now as the last book review until the company gets back on track. I am not sure if the job will be returned or not. In any case, I am enjoying my time off from it, I must admit. So, this latest book by William Lashner was an easy read. I had not heard of this author before, but…
