I only just started looking up airfare. I hate this part maybe even more than packing.I only just started looking up airfare. I hate this part maybe even more than packing.

Okay, making plane reservations is actually one of my super powers! So, let me know if you want any help.

I am also pleasantly drunk on wine, pasta, tiramisu, and free shot of vanilla vodka from a verra cute restaurant manager.

I think I need to step away from the fantasy novels for a bit. I'm feeling sad at my lack of a Great Quest.

Well, right now my Quest is trying to figure out a way to get to the Baltimore Trapeze School by public transportation. And tomorrow, my Mission will be to figure out some results on non-crossing partitions and type up an algebra exam. But none of that stuff is terribly Great or Epic. Or even all that Interesting.

I saw Wicked today. OMG, I loved it SO MUCH and with every single fiber of my being. Perfection.

Where's Scola? And Suzi and Hec? Tom Glavine just won his 300th game! Historic! Awesome!

This is pretty much how S and I felt after seeing it.

Also, having seen the one here at the Pantages twice, and having listened to the OBC recording?

I think Eden Mendoza (current Elphaba in LA) is better than Idina Mendel (OBC Elphie).

Eden Espinoza--and I know this because I was so blown away by her that I looked her up in my program immediately. She was mind-blowingly good.

Eden Espinoza

YES! Thank you. Stoopid memory. She's SO GOOD.

I love listening to the OBC CD, and I love listening to Idina, but I really wish I could have a recording of Eden singing the part.

I still need to see Wicked.

Sean, insent.

I saw West Side Story at the Torrance Playhouse last night. Of course my nephew Freeman was the best one on stage but the actors who played Maria, Anita and Riff were pretty darn good too. Unfortunately the guy playing Tony thought it was a Gilbert & Sullivan show.
