nancy and i went to see fiddler on the roof at the grand theatre. it was awesome! we had great seats - middle of the second row on the balcony. the only problem was that there was less than limited leg room. seriously, our knees were crammed against the back of the seat in front of us. brendan and gerry would not have been able to sit there. anyways, we loved the play. we're already big fans of the movie, and we felt they had done an excellent rendition. the costumes were really brightly coloured, and the sets were really well done. we really enjoyed it. i was underdressed. i did consider wearing slacks instead of jeans, but i honestly felt that since i'd been wearing work clothes all day that i wanted to be more comfortable. so it's my own fault, and it didn't effect my enjoyment at all. only i was a little overly warm because i didn't want to shed a layer and expose my skull+crossbones shirt underneath.
yesterday was a short day at work because there was a power outage. we were told they were expecting the power to return around 3:30 or 4, but it actually came back on at 1:30. oh well. i had a nice afternoon, i worked out and baked some cupcakes for some company. b was gonna do it, but he got called into work unexpectedly.
jo and hugh came to visit in the evening. it was so great to have them over. brendan and joanna had never met before, even though it felt as though they should've because i've known them both for quite some time. but they seemed to just miss each other all the time. it was nice getting to know hugh better too. we both really liked him, which is good because there's no guarantee that your partner is going to like your friend's partner. although, i don't think that's happened to us yet. i really like jo. i feel that she and i are on the same page with a lot of things, and she really resonates with me. i'd invited them over for a game, but we ended up just chatting the whole evening, so we didn't get to it. australians are a lot like brits when it comes to tea. it made me laugh that hugh served us all tea because he was in need of some.

Hugh is a lot of fun. How can we convince those two that it would be more enjoyable to take up permanent residence in Canada?
I think "slacks" is pretty much the funniest word in the English language.
what about trousers?
and what else is funny is that my grandma had a very clear distinction in her mind between "slacks" and "trousers". to this day, i am baffled.
