Cirque Du Soleil Alegria

On Sunday, the five of us (me, Berta, Abby, Mom, and Nana) went into Philly to see Alegria, one of the touring Cirque Du Soleil shows. This marks my fifth unique Cirque show, having seen “O”, La Nouba, Dralion, and Varekai.

Qibla Direction

The book I’m reading now (last of the the triolgy that Jen got me for my birthday, Kushiel’s Avatar) has a lot of religion in it. Actually, the whole trilogy was steeped in ficticious religions of different kinds.

The book takes place in a world sort of like ours - an alternate Renaissance. In place of France is Terre D’Ange, the homeland of the main character. She travels all over the place, mainly in what we would call Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. A good portion of this third book takes place in Africa.

Letter of Reasonable Expectation

I thought it might be nice to make a few things clear before we continue.

There have been some issues with commenters of late, and I’m inclined to let them slide temporarily while I sort out some permanent measures. Nonetheless, I provide you with this explanation of what you can expect to find here, what warranty I offer, and what I expect from you.
