In the end, the furniture all got delivered and assembled within one day, even when two of the guys didn't get cleared and had to sit the day out at Pentagon City. It's very nice furniture too, beautiful blue chairs and metal tables for the computers, an understated front desk, and similar.
Went to see the Met's broadcast of L'Amour de Loin today, and also bought my ticket for Rogue One next week. The story was absurd, even by opera standards, and parts of the very abstract production were too, but the music was fascinating, and the light show they had on the stage to stand in for the ocean was kind of brilliant. The main trio were all good, and Susanna Phillips even managed to make the ending pretty powerful.
I was sorry it was the same day as the Grand Prix Finale, though. Managed to get my recap of the senior event done tonight, but the junior event and the Golden Spin of Zagreb will have to wait until tomorrow(seriously, if Carolina hadn't been making her return there, I wouldn't have bothered with the last). Somehow there always seems to be an opera the same weekend as the GPF.
Not really reacting to the leaked CIA report, since it confirms what anyone who was paying attention pretty much knew already. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem likely to have any practical results...
