Productive and pleasurable

It's been a good, and busy, month.

• For the first time in four years, bought new glasses
• Attended Scintillation, bluejo's book gathering in Montreal
  
• Went to my first SCA event since last winter, to see a friend made a premier member of the new Order of the Mark

I think the hypomania is starting to wear off, so I'd better find those overdue lab requisitions and book appointments, so future me can get her thyroid meds renewed.

Circus!

I'm covid-cautious, and for last five years I've been staying out of theatres. But there is a circus arts festival taking place this weekend and it's an artform I adore watching. I decided to mask up and roll the dice.

On Thursday I went to see a performance by House of Dust called HAUS of YOLO. It's bawdy and messy and the audience was there for it. I had such a good time - I had not realized how much I'd missed seeing this kind of show.

Here's a review of their Vancouver performance earlier this month

Tonight I have a ticket for Flo, by a Quebec troupe, where the stage set is a life-sized ship built inside the theatre. I'm looking forward to it a lot.
