She appears to like Russian composers, she did rather well with a piece from Shostakovich in a competition.

That's wonderful! Like Russian writers, Russian composers are not for everyone! Kudos to her for braving the cultural bridge.

Went to the event took a bunch of photos

Even ate lunch on a yacht, and guess who was captain...

(The answer is me...)

 

[AngryHobbit]

My fellow POUNDers, most of whom are also my fellow Zumbaites, demanded to know why I attempted to sabotage last week's Zumba class by not being there. I explained I was down with a gnarly case of sinus infection and could not breathe. They said it was only so-so excusable. In fairness... I think I might have set somewhat high expectations: the last few times I missed Zumba were when I had the flu or when I had a wisdom tooth pulled (the tooth had an abnormally long root, and the procedure resulted in an... um... greater than usual amount of bleeding, and I was driving myself).

Apparently, not only was I not there to carry the left side of the room, but some girl popped into my spot and she was... um... somewhat coordinationally challenged. And this did not make other people happy.

@gpseymour told me to tell them to be nice to me, otherwise, he will show up the next time I need to take a sick day - and then they'll be sorry.

Nice gathering..... was it on the boat...and do you now expect us to call you Capin Donald1?

 

[AngryHobbit]

I couldn't possibly. They would know it was a lie. I am a terrible liar. When I lie, I vomit. Not a joke.

Better yet...much more convincing...if you vomit, then they will most certainly believe you're to sick to be there

It was at a hotel a couple miles from the docks

And also, aye! God only gives you so many days but the ones you spend at sea don't count against you.

Except when I lie, I vomit regardless of whether I am sick or not. Actually, I am getting better. If it's not a huge lie, I just get very nauseous and dizzy.

Generally... I opt not to lie... It's just too... inconvenient.

Sounds like fun. I've never been out at sea on a boat or on a ship.

Well then...its a sailors life for me

Actually being a Navy brat, and I am, that too may count as not counting against me

Then there is only one thing left to do...develop a Zumba allergy

But.... I don't want a Zumba allergy. I would rather not have a sinus infection. You know... so I could go to Zumba. And carry my side of the room. Like you do...

Zumba allergy? Never heard of it. I'm also not sure if I have it or not. It's safe not to take any chances...

You can't fool me... Pluto is a dog! Floppy ears, tail... dog. Not planet!
