So a student's mom called me today, realizing she owed me some money for an extra lesson I did. I checked my planner; so it was. A sign from God, I've decided. So rather than doing something rational or, you know, productive, I BOUGHT CANDIDE ON DVD.::falls

Buying stuff with cool people in them makes me happy in the pants for WEEKS on end. It's odd how that can make you feel infinitely better. By the way, if you thought Chenoweth was bent before, in Candide, she just... well. She just. ::shakes head:: I don't know if you know it, but it's a wonderfully dark comic operetta. You'd like it.

I would so like a picture of pie the Holy City.
I know what you mean, I still talk about getting my Bway: The American Musical dvd.
I've heard of Candide (I took two opera classes in high school) but not that version!

I'm re-watching season 6 right now, just waiting for the parts where CJ and Annabeth walk together. It kills me. Height difference'd.
I indulged in some Cheno. I shouldn't have money-wise, but I did anyway, and I'm just gonna forget about it and enjoy. I can't wait for it to get here.

Candide is a picaresque novel by Voltaire. Candide is the operetta by Leonard Bernstein [with additional lyrics by some other people like Stephen Sondheim]. the version that Jillie bought on DVD is from PBS's "Great Performances" and is a semi staged concert version with the New York Philharmonic. it stars some guy as Candide, Kristin Chenoweth as Cunegonde [and she sings a crazy aria "Glitter and Be Gay"], and the fantabulous Patti LuPone as the Old Lady. it's really funny and amazing and things. =D
