We made it home from Phoenix! The trip was very nice, and it was great to see Dave's folks and grandparents again. Rhiannon did great, and the long drive went really well.

I just got home from seeing "O", the Cirque du Soleil show at the Bellagio!! A friend of mine was given *awesome* tickets - absolute center, 13 rows from the stage - so she chose to take me rather than her husband. Lucky me! It was so amazing, I can't even describe it. The music, the costumes, the dancing, the acrobatics... wow! Whoever dreamed that up has a whole different way of thinking than I do, because it looked like somebody's dream or fantasy world. I was literally blown away. And I'm so lucky I got to see it, because we would never be able to buy tickets, so it was a fantastic opportunity.
My lovely friend Shonna's husband is one of the musical directors (Shonna, it rocks!!), and the music is just incredible. It's all sung in this different language, so it's sort of like an opera where the songs are in Latin, only everybody in the audience is on equal footing, since nobody knows what they're actually saying. I don't know if that makes sense... basically, I didn't feel foolish and ignorant for not knowing what they were singing about!! LOL So it was a beautiful theatrical performance, but not at all intimidating for me, who has never really seen live theater.
I'm just blown away. It was AWESOME!!!! I need the CD now, because the music was just incredible.

I got to see "O"!! Yay!! :D

Ok, back to work. :)
