i saw "wicked," finally, thursday night. two broadway shows in two nights, not a bad streak i think. oh my good lord it was amazing. of course i loved the soundtrack, and i loved the book, but seeing it live was so good. though it is really different than the book - toned down a bit for the broadway audience, a happier ending, all that. i ( Read more... )

i just got back from seeing "the producers" with the audience club at my school. of course it didn't have matthew broderick or nathan lane in it anymore, but it did have hunter foster in it, who i saw in "urine town" and who i heard was excellent in the revival of "little shop of horrors." and he was awesome. our seats were all the way up in the ( Read more... )

got back for maryland today at about four. mom and dad went to the church sale, which i opted out on. they said it was pretty bad anyway, so i didn't miss much. so i walked home, walked to dog, and checked the messages/mail. nobody around, it seems, so i'll most likely be heading over to the video store again ( Read more... )

so, i'm leaving in like, two minutes, i shouldn't be taking the time to update. i'll be in maryland from tonight till friday, visiting johns hopkins and st johns. i'm not sure about internet access at the hotel, so i may be a bit cut off. if anyone needs to get me, just call my cell, which i will have with me. there are no promises of it being ( Read more... )
