Sorry I've been out of touch...

I went to see "Shall We Dance" last Saturday with the lovely T, and I am embarrassed to say that I just loved that film. J-Lo is awesome in it!! Maybe it helped that the company was SO good, but even so. It was a very, very nice evening.

I had also forgotten how good french toast can be - a very pleasant surprise for Sunday brunch!

Monday, I was back in class, and then started writing a novel in the afternoon. (Perhaps I will post the first 500 words here...) I was interrupted by a crazy psychopath who wanted to talk to me about girls and Hitler. Ugh.

It's Golden Week here, with a series of national holidays, so on Wednesday Jim and I made the mistake of going to Kamakura/Enoshima, both of which were obscenely crowded. Nightmare!! Then I had rehearsal for Steel Magnolias, which is shaping up to be just wonderful.

Thursday I was in Azamino to have chats with Paco, which was hilarious, and then Friday I went to see a Noh-opera version of the Amaterasu myth in Ueno. I was invited by Kan and Akio, the producers of the Noh-Opera version of Macbeth I'm kinda involved in, and we had a very good time. Wandering in the rain through the enormous cemetery in Ueno was quite a surreal experience...

And TOMORROW, I'm going to see Ninagawa's Medea! I am so excited, I could lay an egg. Full report shall follow, obviously...

Ciao!
