Figgy pudding stakeout
We went to our symphony's christmas concert yesterday with Levendis and Merveilleuse courtesy of my papa. We cheered very loudly for Gip's brother, who is a trombonist, even though one is not supposed to cheer during a symphony.
Then there was the singing of Christmas carols. This is where the shananigans got worse. Deron started altering the meaning of carols by inserting new punctuation. He thus sang "Christ! The child is born" à la Troy McLure's "No, money down!" I am not sure that the parents of the children sitting around us appreciated this. Merveilleuse started a stakeout and refused to leave until someone brought her some "figgy pudding -- right here!" We had to drag her to the car. I kept on doing retards when I wasn't supposed to (in music a "retard" is a slackening (slowing) of tempo, often during the end of a verse or song) and B.A.Q., well, his tone-deathticity generally puts a wrench in any song.
In any case, it was fun times.
