Happy aniversary, J & Z! Plus, I am going to be in Minneapolis from September 12th-19th for business. I want to see you guys if possible!

So, there is a wedding in my backyard on Sunday. I have been working really hard for the last month or so getting things ready. In the sickest news ever, I started think of what project I can start after the wedding. Where did my lazy bones go?

Ooooo. I could see about getting you into the opening of You Can't Take It With You, which I'm Assistant Directing, and maybe a run-through of Debbie Does Dallas: The Musical, which Z is directing. If you'd like. But yay! I'd love to see you.

And thanks for the wishes, y'all. It's been a fun one.

erika, maybe sm hasn't paid attention to the GD lyrics?

erika, odds are good the parents won't be able to understand the lyrics. So maybe the message will go over their heads. Owen LOVES Holiday. He rocks out to it.

I think the things they'd be most likely to pick up on and object to would be the occasional profanity.

If they catch onto the politics themselves (rather than someone else mentioning it), it'll be during Holiday's reference to the Eiffle Tower.

This is, of course, assuming they themselves ever hear any of it.

Heck, I wouldn't notice the politicalness of a song unless someone pointed it out to me. As much as I like poetry and metaphor and even bluntness, I never really pay that much attention to song lyrics (unless it's Broadway show tunes), I'm all about the melody, harmony and just losing myself in the flow of the song.

Job~ma for Susan and P-C.

Also, Happy Anniversary, juliana and Zach!

Job~ma to P-C! (Gave it to Susan yesterday...need to spread around that ~ma!)

Happy Anniversary, j and Z!

Just got off the phone with my parents. They've gotten a LOT of rain and their power was out for about 12 hours, but they're fine. Also, the power came back on while I was talking to them. That was kinda cool.

Nicole, I know exactly where Corinth is (I use the Hardee's there as a restroom stop in between Memphis and Florence, Ala.). From the sounds of it, that area got a lot of rain just like my parents.

Has anybody bought from Zaftique? Because mmmmm.

I just went to a free lunch that local caterers put on to pimp their food. Curry bar with rice, beef, shrimp, veggies, and chicken; spring roll station with lobster, duck, and veggie options. Mini-pizzas with deliciousness (chorizo+caramelized onions, prociutto+goat cheese+kalamata olives). Passed hors d'oerves- risotto cakes, lobster salad on brioche rounds, fresh mozzeralla with roasted tomato and pepper. Couple tastes of wine and a bailey's laced coffee with real whipped cream, and - I kid you not- deep fried cheesecake.

Nap now, please.

Nora, I had a really nice lunch (homemade carrot soup and almonds) and now I want yours. Curse you.
