Procrastination Queen

I am listening to Fidelio. I so want to sing 'Abscheulicher, wo eilst du hin?' but that probably won't happen for a few years! In the meantime i think i may have to content myself with 'O wär ich schon mit dir vereint.' Arias excite me so much. There are about 5 Mozart arias from everything from Cosi to La finta giardiniera that i want to tackle... the problem is finding the time! It's sort of sick in a way but i really am madly and passionately in love with opera and everything about it.

And speaking of opera: just over a week until Falstaff opens. Is anyone else excited?! :D

I am procrastinating. I am supposed to be writing an essay on the portrayl of love, marriage and adultery in von Strassburg's Tristan. I do love reading about these things, i just wish i didnt have to write essays on them. Especially now when i'm so terribly ancient, and incredibly over essay writing. I'd rather be working on a dissertation.
