Day 214/365 (February 16, 2015)

I spent the morning on a crepe bender... i ate so many wonderful ones! My favorite was the fluffernutter. I also went to the Laurie Beechman Theatre for the first time in forever to se Broadway Sings for Canines for Kids. It was a cute event and I went because Ravi was in it... he was wonderful and Emily McNamara hosted it... It was nice/weird seeing her at a regular hour! Matthew James Thomas was also there with his adorable dog. He and this girl sang Love Song from Pippin and all I Could think was "you are not KDM" and I have heard 3 others sing it besides him and I didn't have an issue so interesting, Then I headed out to New Rochelle to stay with the cousins for the night because there was a need last minute. I got there and Clare was watching Castle. Then Winnie and Dennis joined... it was funny listening to their remarks like "don't do that you're going to get in trouble and hinder the investigation!" Penny was also super happy to see me and kept putting her paws on my shoulder to stare into my eyes.

Day 103/365 (October 28, 2014)

The day began by rushing Pippin. I got there earlier than I actually thought I needed to but I was awake and why not be safe than sorry. While rushing I gave Ally her shirt since she was there for the filming of the show for CBS' Thanksgiving Day Parade segment. I got my favorite seat AA109 and then headed home to make a change, then off to work for a bit. Later I came home and did a quick apartment tidy because I wasn't sure if I had a visitor coming over or not. Then i dropped some baked goods off at Pippin and came home to work on the cookies for my fall s'mores idea and making the cake balls for my first official order. The cookies were tasty but i really hate rolling out cookie dough for cookie cutters, i always forget how much I hate it until i do it again... fail! The cake ball making went pretty smoothly, I am a well oiled machine in that respect now!

Then Ravi and Josh came over for a bit to pick up some baked goodies and hang out. It was nice to see them and to show off the place, especially with all of the decorations Karen and Sasha have done for the party on Saturday. Then as I was in a baking madness for the rest of the night I realized the time and went to meet up to deliver my first order and on the way back I ran into the friend I was planning on meeting later, Rochelle,, and Ben was also with her. We chatted for a bit then I headed home, stuffed dinner in my face, changed, and headed back out to meet them. I gave them some cookies and went to see Pippin. When Ben tried the Pumpkin Snickerdoodles he was like I would place an order for these... success!

The show was lovely and I am so happy I was in "my seat" Then after the show I waited at the SD area per usual. I finally told Mike how much I enjoy his glitter confetti audience sprinkling in the beginning of Act Two and he told me how he has also been throwing it into people's faces if they aren't paying attention and the other night a lady was drinking water and he threw it in her face and yelled "MAGIC" with his Fosse hands and I just about lost it. I waited way too long after Pippin at the Stage Door for KDM to come (like an hour) oops.... sometimes I do crazy things but it was nice to see him for a quick moment. Ally had met u with me since she was staying over to make rush easier and give KDM something... then we headed back home and she helped me put together my fall s'mores which were gingersnap cookies in t shape of pumpkins with pumpkin shaped pumpkin marshmallows dipped in chocolate on top... so delicious! Karen and Sasha had the ladder out for decorations and left it there and I found Charlie stuck at the top not sure how to get down. Then after a long time we finally went to bed at like 2:30 am! oops!

Day 194/365 (February 28, 2009)

Got up earlier than planned and not sure why, ate some breakfast then went with Grace to help her with West Side Story Lotto. Ran into Sami, Penski, and then Carina and Stef.

The lotto guy is pretty funny and has a booming voice but i think his "we will call an alternate" policy incase someone doenst get all the tickets they said they wanted... yea i was called as the alternate only to wait in line and be told we don't have any more tickets for lotto. The other funny thing was during lotto there were two names that were called and the people didnt come forward because they werent there... well i was waiting in line these people came in and asked if lotto had been done yet and we said yes, and they asked if any names were called and people didnt come forward and we said there were two and he asked if they were adam or lauren and i was like on was lauren, and then asked her last name and it was it and i was like sorry! then the guy thought they could still get their lotto tickets somehow and he was set on his plan but she kept telling him it wasnt going to work... it made me chuckle.

Then i went to Wamu and closed out my bank account, yay for having a little bit of cash since i am without until Bank of America sends me my new ATM card... still peeved at Coldstone for causing that grief!

Had a little lunch of toast pizza and tomato and avocado... so much yum!

I came home and Krysta was watching one of her movies... not only does this not have "drama" but i saw some stuff that i did not need to be seeing. She also curled my hair all pretty like and i was going all vain and toss-tossing my hair all night!

Karolina came over to kill time after her wedding expo and before we went to go see boyz. We both seem to not see each other as much lately so its always nice to catch up, and we had dinner then made our way to NWS for Altar Boyz and Diane's anniversary celebration. She gave us pretty fun party favors, and i gave her a copy of Bare since she had never heard of it before!

The show was great... it is nice to see it after a little break, and Joey was on as Matthew. Karolina and I shouldnt be allowed to sit next to each other since we encourage each other with funny comments and whatnot.... always a blast!

We did a little photo shoot after the show then went to TOL... It was good fun and i got to speak with Clayton for a while (in picture above with Ravi). He is the drummer for Boyz and i missed him the last few weeks while he was working on another show. (in Seattle).  Also had a conversation with some others that involved my super math skills and a discussion of all the shows that have played at NWS.

Karolina also struck a deal for herself that resulted in a good thing... oy! LOL :D

Day 153/365 (January 18, 2009)

The day was spent stage dooring the matinee of Spring Awakening on its final day, and meeting up with some friends: mary, Jo Ann, Mike. Then i went and helped people with the Avenue Q Lotto and went to have dinner with Krysta, Sasha, Matthew, and Nick was there too. Matthew was really sad that he wasnt seeing the final show and we tried to find him a ticket but failed.

Eventually we went to the the theater and i got bought him a ticket... 5th row orchestra and i am glad he was able to see the show.

My favorite part of the whole show was the encore of Totally Fucked and everyone just rocking out and singing along... best moment ever! I spent the first act in my favorite right box seat, and moved down to the empty seat next to Matthew for Act Two. I left in the middle of the speeches at the final curtain call because i had gotten word earlier in the day that Ravi was taking part in a concert of music last minute. It was by the composing team of Dabbon and Bruett. I had never heard of them but only went for Ravi. I was quite pleased Marty Thomas was on the list of singers as well when i got there. (ps i literally was seated just before it started). Their music was fantastic and funny and i highly recommend everyone to check them out!

It was all kinds of awesome to see Ravi sing a non- ABz song... boy can sing :D
