On a pre-Columbian society: "It is no lie to say that these men are indeed savages--by our standards; for either they must be or we must be: there is an amazing gulf between their souls and ours"--Michel de Montaigne
I was so thrilled about my virtual crops that I lay awake for hours and got up early to harvest them. (Did I mention that Farmville is addictive?)
Dinner was turkey pie.
Went to another opera acting class. (We got kicked out of the cafeteria and did it in the lobby.) We were given random motivations to create characters from. My first was "You love anything larger than life, so I imagined myself (for Die Fledermaus) as a Tyrol hick called Heinrich, who's been in Vienna for just a couple of years and is still wide-eyed about the place. My second was "You want to see your anti-foreign prejudices confirmed," so this time I became (for Madama Butterfly) Akira-san, an old geezer who misses the samurai era.
The amazon.com books I ordered the other week arrived today.
