For my birthday this year I asked AJ to take me to see one of the two showings of Swan Lake when it was being performed during the Virginia Arts Festival.  It was a wonderful and interesting evening.  The ballet was absolutely beautiful.  We had dinner and then AJ accidentally fell asleep twice during the first half just for a quick minute he said (he had gotten up at 5am that morning).  He said he really enjoyed the ballet except for the part for when ‘they just kept dancing, and dancing, and dancing’ but commended them for ‘the fastest death scene you’ve ever seen’.  On the way home AJ was accidentally speeding on the freeway and got pulled over.  When he was asked he told the officer we had been seeing Swan Lake for my birthday.  The officer gave AJ a warning as his birthday gift to me and we were off to home and bed.
