sera – i haven’t either…i mean once i went because i had tickets but i was so sick that the raging fever took over and i passed out during the first 15 mins. my boyfriend had to wake me up and get me home. they play it a zillion times on pbs and such and there are animated versions too. i’m not sure i’ve ever actually watched the entire thing even on tv. i bet you’d recognize the main song though. it’s rather a rather lovely classical instrumental piece.

k so not so great but i’ve been mega stressed there was a fire in our apartment complex in fact it was our next door neighbors so thats always a fun thing to deal with while dealing with 3 small children and holiday shopping and cooking. I leave for Pittsburgh in 9 days and wont be back for 14 I hope everyone has a lovely christmas, new years, yule whatever it is you celebrate.

sera – yah they are nutcrackers and i agree they are totally creepy! it’s what the famous ballet the nutcracker suite features – they come alive and stuff… O.o the mouths are hinged and chompy and you can actually stick a nut in them and use the lever on the back to close it and crack the nut, hence the name…mostly the ones i see though are more decorative and used as christmas decoration in statue or ornament form. love you for lovin my stuff, darlin’ – thank you.
