Now if the Opera were half as interesting as the video I'm pretty sure we'd all have season memberships.
If you liked that, watch him sing Carmen 'Habanera' here Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2jn_lxrrPg

In an office looking for...
(Short Nap)
...I'm in an office building, perhaps the biggest in the world, in the biggest city in the world, it's dark outside, after hours, the office, well furnished with dim lighting, brown wood hues and tones, a minimal staff, I'm looking for ******, ******, old, old, ex girlfriends, I need them for some reason, don't know why, need to contact them, or they need to contact me, not sure, and there's another one...there's someone I know - don't know, worked with on a film a while back, I'm asking him about them, he doesn't know, and I'm trying to remember the name of the one I've forgotten, not Lisa, she's dead, there's another, and it's important I see her, find her as well, I can't explain why, outside, from the dimly lit office, the city spreads out unending in all directions...

Xplornet
The owner, he's gotten a bill he doesn't understand. Final notice, imminent disconnect, Xplornet. An ISP, Internet Service Provider. He doesn't use, uses Platinum instead, something about the letter smacks of disregard and discard, something else, I dunno...
So I look up Platinum Internet on the web, a hunch, nothing there. And Xplornet, nothing there as well...
Chuck it away, it's garbage, final notice from who? Fucking hell...
But I have my misgivings, and finally I dig the final notice out of the garbage, final notice on a $55.00 balance, and give them a call.
15 minutes on hold. 15 minutes, listening to bad pop songs like "James - Bare Naked Ladies', which isn't so bad, but really, if you're listening to it on a call to your not-ISP while on hold you're probably not loving it so much...
I'm irate by the time they answer, ask how long I've been on hold, she doesn't know (they all know and have displays that show how long each caller waited...), quiz her about the bill, oh, didn't they tell us, they were supposed to, Platinum was bought out by Xplornet, really they were supposed to let everyone know...
And she knows, clearly she knows, a 15 minute wait time is a pretty good indication that they're pretty busy fucking things up, and when I point out that maybe they should have let us know - them being the new ISP and all, and really, it's not like the exiting company is going to make any big efforts to advise their clients, their interest is done, the denials start, and now she's trying to talk us into setting ourselves up on prepaid debit, and I'm thinking this is just a set up for even more incompetence to follow, no mention on either of their websites about the merger or takeover, but they're ISP's they're not web or IT or tech guys, still, there's really no excuses...

Can't find my boots...
I'm at N***'s, (not N***'s, dream N***'s), it's late, seems there's a party or something going on, she's in the next room watching some TV show, pseudo-scientific BS narrated by every alumni from Star Trek, her child is engrossed in something...we're not speaking, really, N*** and I, so I decide to pop out and grab some Vodka. I ask her if she want's something, she tells me a bottle of Grappa, and I'm a little surprised, she's holding a little glass mini, squarish, J&B embossed on the side, double check, no, she wants Grappa...
...Now I'm looking for my boots, and everywhere in her house there are boots that resemble mine, her boyfriend, 7 or 8 pair of leather workboots, drywall boots, beside my skates, N*** boots, a pair of leather boots that seem to be mine, searching, everywhere, everywhere there are boots, hundreds of pairs, but I can't for all my searching find my boots, and I need to leave...
