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.
I still need to see Wicked.
Me too. I have all the songs memorized. I've seen tons of youtube clips...but I want to see it LIVE!!!

No clue where the other two are - but VERA COOL!!! Whatshisnose also did something yesterday, so I have been avoiding SportsCenter.
So damned tired. Mom's room is DONE and she is moved back in. All family members still live, though there was a slight dust-up yesterday that had me telling everyone to go to their corners.
