Day 148/365 (January 13, 2009)

So the other day I ordered this super pretty necklace from etsy. When I had seen it my first thought was “I think I need to buy that.” I was really happy to wake up this morning and find a package waiting for me on my spare bed (thanks Krysta) and knew what it was. It looked even better in person than the picture online, and it looked pretty awesome there. I took a picture of it (pardon bad photo) and will now share it with all of you, I am almost positive I will be wearing this tomorrow. (as long as I can find something to wear it with)

Day 147/365 (January 12, 2009)

I was in Chatham, New Jersey for the last time… as I was walking to the train station platform for the final time I took this and said “peace out Chatham!” That was a great feeling :D

Day 146/365 (January 11, 2009)

Two picture day!

I saw Spring Awakening with Karolina… besides the fact the show was basically sold out (including standing room) and we had stage seats… I was so amazed and excited to see the cast board saying that Matt Doyle was going on as Melchior. I wasn’t able to get a picture of it due to excitement and lack of time, but I was ecstatic to see it! The show itself was pretty good and I have never seen Matt do a better job as Melchior, if this turns out to be my last Spring Awakening experience it will not be a disappointing one. It was nice sharing the experience with Karolina, and it was funny when Frances threw her head on my lap during Totally Fucked.

I also was attempting to “stage door” Wicked even though I had not seen it (shh) but only because I still need to get Rentopoly and Marci X signed and I am sick of bringing them with me. I failed epic-ly of course, but I was finally able to get a photo with Marcie Dodd who is by far my favorite Elphaba I have ever seen. It stinks that she isn’t in the show anymore, but I am sure she will rock in whatever she is doing next :D

Day 145/365 (January 10, 2009)

This is the buzzer panel outside my apartment building… sometimes Krysta and I play a special song for each other with our apartment number when we are too lazy, or incapable, of using our keys.

Day 144/365 (January 9, 2009)

I got out of work earlier than usual, but not enough to make the trip to Philly despite my best efforts. I met Krysta and we went to see Bride Wars, which was a pretty cute movie, even if it was half a theater ticket! Then I high-tailed it over to Ars Nova.

I met up with kayla, kavin, melissa, rachel, and amelia to see Gallagher perform, and of course he had a special guest Thad DeBrock. There were songs, talk of oil fumes, a false alarm spider on the microphone, and good times with friends. I had turned my screen off to take pictures because of my proximity to the stage in the dark theater so this was the best shot that came out. I like it because Thad is in it too and I think he is extremely talented. As a personal note I really miss the lack of Tupperware everywhere!

Day 143/365 (January 8, 2009)

The Spring Standards had a "secret" show in Brooklyn at a place called VoxPop they, and a bunch of other wicked awesome talented people/bands, performed as a rescue the place type thing. The place was super tiny and it was nice to see them play without there elaborate set-ups. The palce was on Cortelyou Rd in Brooklyn and Megan, Laura, and myself headed out.

After the show we had a photo shoot of sorts waiting for the Q train to wisk us away... fun times with fun people. This was our funny faces shot

Day 142/365 (January 7, 2009)

Yesterday i met up with sasha, matthew, mackenize, krysta, emilie, and mikey. We ate dinner (so yummy was my spinach calzone) and then went our seperate ways. Krysta, ZEmilie, Mikey and myself saw Altar Boyz and it was fun sharing that with them and Mikey's extreme excitement :D

but no picture from that, later that night our houseguests came over Jordan, Tracy, and Carina... Jordan brought a large assortment of playbills she had bought as a bundle on eBay and were going through them. I got to keep an Altar Boyz playbill that had a picture of the OOBC on the cover, but this one here amused me the most. Apparently you got a discount coupon to go on the intrepid (a ship) when you saw titantic... yep you are seeing a musical about a sinking ship, so here is a discount to visit one... LOL!
