This weekend: Do all the stuff I said I was going to do last weekend, plus prepare for next week's mushroom class. (Translation: clean the kitchen table where the bills are getting mixed in with the junk mail and magazines.)

I have Al Franken's book "Lies and the Lying Liars who Tell Them: a Fair and Balanced Look at the Right" waiting for me at the library. It seemed like the right time to read it. Also for some reason, The Magic Flute. (Some reason=NPR told me it was about freemasons, and it's Mozart so it can't be excruciating even though it's an opera, right?)

I would like to write more here. Subjects in my mind waiting for a post: Corvids (I promise), Feral Cats (that post will probably winnow my friends list down to people that don't use LJ any more), Nutella (overrated, imo, but I'm not a chocolate lover--I'll let you know what the rats think), the search for a new place to live (have I posted about that before?), also relate: god DAMN it's been cold lately.

The Magic Flute is my favoritest opera ever. It's the first one I ever got to know. Do you have a DVD of it? Whose recording is it? Because the one bad thing I would say is if it's Julie Taymor's production it'll come off as dumb and overwhelm the music :(

I got a DVD from the library: Produced in 1999 with Director Robert Herzl and the Junge Bundeslander Philharmonic.

Please post what you think of it, I wouldn't mind seeing a good production on video.
