So, I went to see the opera Werther today. Beautiful show, very well done.

But I forgot how exhausting being in a crowd of people is for me. I've been keeping my hermit ways for a couple of months now and damn that social anxiety is emotionally- and physically- exhausting. Coiled like a spring for two and a half hours is just tiring.

However, the friend I went with had never been to an opera before, so I got to share her first opera with her. That's special.
