ooh how exciting
typing from home... in my freezing, high-ceiling-ed, living room. in l.a.
i came home this weekend after that dance performance i had to mandatorily attend. i wonder if mandatorily is a word. well here's my mini dance review... which i will have to expand later for my dance class' turn-in assignment. i'll think of it as practice.
the name of the performance was "Milk Traces" by a member in the dance company inkBoat. i pretty much had to take notes on the performance in the dark because there was hardly any stagelight presence. and the stage was set up to look like... i felt, a fisherman's village where the kimono dresses have gone tattered. the dancer's name was Shinichi Iova-Koga. I think he was like either half japanese or changed his name from a Romanian name to a straight-up japanese name... like Shinichi. i always like to guess where people are from based on their name... the dancer was strapped to this thick rope that was covered in deep red and wine colored rags. i think it symbolized an umbilical cord. again, my opinion. the main dance form that he danced is called butoh. Butoh is a japanese dance form which i think captures a return to the primitive state of men from the ever-changing and often hustle and bustle nature of a now highly modernized Japan. the dance really wasn't appealing to me... haha.. just being honest. but i liked how it was only an hour long :) mean, i know...
well, this weekend is already coming to a close. i've got Law and Order and Law and Order SVU coming up. i'm just loafing around til SNL comes on. i think it's a replay for those fervent SNL viewers, but for me, the occasional SNL viewer... a BRAND NEW EPISODE! Score, i win.
well, i think i'll leave you with a picture of my favorite doggie, Archie. he sometimes doesn't like getting up on different levels if his hop is in a tight space. this is him waiting for me to lift him up next to me on my leather couch here at home in L.A. the tight space is created by the living room's decor table and the leather couch. one day, i will dedicate an entry to this fellow. he's just the most adorable dog in the world.
