My Little Green Cactus - the opera

I had lunch with out interns today, whom I like and enjoy chatting with. As it was a Friday, the conversation drifted to plans for the weekend. One intern was going to some electronic beats concert, the other to listen to a Senegalese band. Me? I'm going to listen the the children's opera "My Little Green Cactus", at 11am. A friend from Brussels just wrote a blo about feeling uncool, not being let into a concert in the evening because she had a buggy along. I had to think of her today and laugh: how cool is a very, very strange concept.... or the wrong adjective for us parents.
