The General's Girlfriend is trying to play matchmaker.

Went to a recital her friend was singing in tonight.  An opera singer she wants to set me up with.  The concert itself was great.  A few solo cello and violin pieces, a few duets and solo vocal pieces.  All classical or opera.  In a beautiful old cathedral.  The acoustics resonated the sounds.  Made me want to go to a proper opera.

The girl sang well.  If I wanted to be picky, I'd say she hit a bad note on her solo piece, but I could be mistaken.  My ear isn't that good.

The General's Girl asked me what I thought of her.  I told her that in a perfect world, if I was to base it on strictly her talent, there would be no problem but unfortunately I have to take appearance into consideration as well.  Yes, shallow I know, but its the truth.  So she said that at least we should be friends.  I said that'd be fine.  She seemed nice.  And perhaps she could teach me a thing or two about opera since I know diddly squat.
