An invasion of armies can be resisted, but not an idea whose time has come. — Victor Hugo

and yeah, I know I am doing a weekend wrap up on Tuesday . . . but seeing as my weekend went from Thursday night to Monday night, it seems valid.

Concert was awesome!! I am not a good media reviewer, I tend to want to just jump up and down and squee.  And this concert was definitely squee-worthy. Soon (and assuming permissions) we’ll be able to make some of the video we took available, probably on you tube. I just have to figure out this new fangled video thingie – good thing I work where i do :lol: .

Sooj and K were lovely houseguests. Yesterday was very restful for Evan and I as we laid around and recovered from the weekend.

Post-concert the house is cleaner than it has been for a LONG LONG time. Which we will desperately try to goad ourselves into maintaining. We have reconfigured the house somewhat, what was the “office” aka  “huge pile of crap”, is now an nice open space with a couch and lots of windows.  What other furniture that is in that room (a china cabinet and some desk bits) will mostly move out over the next few months. With one less couch in the living room, and more spread out seating, the whole front of the  house feels much more roomy. It made fitting in the 35 people or so we had for the concert fairly easy, and I think it will allow us to host a few kinds of events that in the past were kind of a problem – like game days.
