When did it get to be this late? I usually write the blog entry earlier in the evening, but I've been busier than usual today. I'm trying to get everything checked off of my to-do list before I head to Germany on Thursday. Speaking of which, I decided that a weekend with Brenda after six weeks apart wasn't going to be enough, so I changed my return date to the following weekend. Consequently, Brenda and I will get to enjoy more than a week together. I will, of course, be missing some classes, but luckily for me the law school allows students to record classes when they are absent and watch them at their leisure. So next week I'll be sitting in on class from our apartment in Germany. Ain't technology grand?
Brenda has her final dress rehearsal tomorrow night for Ariadne auf Naxos. From what she tells me rehearsals have been going well, although there was one unusual occurrence earlier in the week. The orchestra went on strike for a couple of hours on Monday as a part of a country-wide orchestra strike in Germany. They got back to work later in the day, however, so it looks like the singers will have musical accompaniment on Saturday. Come to think of it, an unaccompanied performance could be interesting. It'd be pretty tough to know what your note was or when to come in, but on the plus side the audience could really focus on the singers' acting.

So next week a reunited Chenda will be writing to you from Germany. Until then, have a wonderful week!
