Reading for pleasure

Having found myself with a little bit of free time, I am restarting "David Copperfield."  On page 30 or something.  Clara Copperfield is about to be married to Murdstone, and David is off to Yarmouth with Peggotty.  I've got a lot to read to get back to where I was, though I am picking up things I missed the first time 'round.

Accidentally, left the book at work, so no more reading for now.  Went to a Flamenco performance of "Antigone."  It was actually, Soledad Barrio and Noche Flamenca "Antigona."  (Done in Spanish.)  I was having trouble following it though, and then when I got home, realized the scenes were broken down in the program.  Probably shoulda' looked at that beforehand.  Amazing dancing, singing, and guitar playing, nonetheless.  I like the concept.  Tonight was the world premier, it's going on tour after it leaves here.

Greek theatre is not something I've studied.  On the radar, just not much opportunity.

More on Dickens to follow.
