Oh man, I’d forgotten that one. I got the first book free or for 99 cents on an ebook special. I may have to check back into that universe... once I finish Abaddon’s Gate.

It’s their Holiday Presentation, a shortened version in English geared towards kids. Flute adapts well to that.
Coffee on the way there, sandwich at first intermission, pull from the flask every time the lights go down to start back up. Unless you’re seeing Meistersinger or something of similar length, in which case lay in provisions for a long winter.
I’ll bring the flask if you smuggle in snacks.
I was simultaneously blown away and yet crushingly unsurprised that it had been that long since the Met had staged an opera by a female composer. SO EXCITED to see it though!
The Met just wants ALL my money next season.

I want to eliminate spending on “utility food” from restaurants: midweek breakfast, lunches, dinners between work and rehearsal (I work a day job and frequently have rehearsals…
Alissa, at this point I feel like you’re deliberately trolling the short-sighted car-humpers of Giz, and I’m loving. Every. Minute.

“Hooray, more short-sighted car-bangers to shit on every good idea they don’t like.”
I get tired of seeing this “I mean, who even lives there” sentiment about all the greening urbanization articles. There’s more people in NYC than in 38 states (individually, of course).
