bearshortyI’m done with Sandman Vol 6 “Fables and Reflections”- a book of stories – characters telling them and lots of historical stories too. I liked it a lot. Gaiman has this fascination with storytellers and I do many of his interpretations of gods and myths. But I do love his very careful and though historical accuracy in his historical stories. So many references.
In the evening I had the Jubilee Special with Katie Couric in the background. The Queen’s Coronation was on June 2, which is my bday, so I it always felt special to me. Plus, I do English history so I know all the history of the monarchy and it makes it fun.
A week ago, when Bear was here, we caught an interview with Roger Waters on TV and saw that he is on tour for “The Wall” again. He will be in New York in July so I asked Bear if he wanted to go as my birthday present to him since Bear’s birthday is a few weeks away. (He always takes me to Broadway for my birthday). He is not a big crowd person but “The Wall” was such an important album to him in high school. So I gave him a week to think about it. Usually I get stuff off his Amazon wishlist plus some of my own books or movies – we limit gift giving and don’t go overboard. So finally today he decided that the concert would be more of an experience so I bought concerts tickets today. Should be fun. I don’t usually go to concerts and never a huge one like this.
Yeva and Vito broke up again – I think it might stick this time. Argh.
