Roerich

The director of the Russian Choir I used to sing with called me this week. They are doing a production of Mascagni's Zanetto with MidAmerica Productions at Carnegie Hall. He asked if I wanted to sing with them-- it's only a few rehearsals and the concert is on June 4th. So, I agreed. They are currently rehearsing at the Nicholas Roerich museum, so that's where I was when the text from N came in.

This is my favorite painting at the museum. Roerich was one of those theosophists-- of the Madame Blavatsky crowd.

Anyway, I have a lot to update here, but I'm too exhausted and too shaken right now to do it. I need to drink some Perrier and lay in bed and watch some TV.

Then I need to try to remember that I live in reality now and it doesn't have to be that bad.

love,

I love that painting too, it's so mature and childlike all in one.

I'm still so very proud of you and glad I met you!
