on tuesday went to see the new cirque du soleil show, zumanity, which was pretty cool. in some ways it’s the same as a regular cirque show, but half naked, but in other ways, much more different in tone and style. i’d describe it as a cirque du soleil cabaret show, as it’s quite flirtatious and bawdy, and all in all a lot of fun. there’s this great part with two female acrobats in this half globe full of water, and they dive in and around each other and then do handstands and backbends on the rim. pretty fantastic. and it was hilarous to see the two ultra-buff guys do this routine and then have a big long kiss at the end to freak out all the people from smallville usa.
on the other hand, seeing blue man group again (mandatory company function) wasn’t any better. even if the seats were really close, it doesn’t improve with repetition.
oh, and they announced that my sales rep and i won the trip to monaco to see the grand prix! they’re flying us and spouses to monaco in a couple of weeks, where we’ll get to stay expenses paid for a few days, and then watch the grand prix from a catered condo overlooking the route. should be a lot of fun, and we can pretend that we’re the beautiful people vacationing in the french riviera. or at least standing next to the beautiful people vacationing in the french riviera.
everyone’s coming up to me and saying one of two things: “congratulations! can i go with you?” and “bring earplugs.”
