Thursday Self-Promoting Open Thread

It is the BEGINNING...of the DECEMBER CONCERT SEASON! Boogah, boogah, boogah. Don't worry, I'm sure there's enough eggnog to see us through it. Got any concerts this weekend? Let us know!

UNLESS it interferes the following (and then I don't want to hear about it!):

Cantilena's Winter Concert: La Belle Epoque and Beyond! Music of Poulenc, Caplet, d'Indy, Boulanger, Delibes, and others. 4 pm, First Parish Arlington, on Sunday, Dec. 2.

FOLLOWED BY:

Cantilena's CD release party! 5:30 pm, also at First Parish Arlington on Sunday, Dec. 2.

A good time will be had by all in the French style. What more could you want?

Happy Thanksgiving! If you have a concert this weekend, I'm not sure what I think of your management, but let us know if we should take the relatives to any choral concerts this weekend!

Where should a cat sit? Sometimes there's an easy answer.

Singing any choruses in public this weekend? Well, I think you're mad, quite mad, but let us know about it in the comments!

I officially give you permission to be self-aggrandizing. What are you doing that we should know about this weekend?

Sporadic Friday Cat Post

My brother found a kitten crying under the deck a few weeks ago, and so (long story short) now he and his wife are a 2-cat household! The new denizen is called Porkchop. She is very cute!

Porkchop and Oomi apparently do not get along, but they get along WAY better than the two cats in our household, Samson and Kitty, who cannot be in the same room without trying to kill each other. January will see Operation Acclimate the Cats. Baby gates may be involved.

Concert season is heating up; let us know if you have anything we should be sure to attend this weekend!
