I really like the musical Tick Tick Boom it is by the guy who did Rent but like it came out after his death but was something he was working on and they put it together after he died. The basic story is like this guy is turning 30 and hasn't created the successful/dream musical of his dreams and doesn't know if he should give up or keep going for his dreams. There were only 3 actors in it. Me and (e:mk) saw it a few years ago at Musical Fare theater and i really liked it and so we went to see Niagara University put it on in Lewiston on Sunday. It was different cuz they had like 12 people instead of 3 and did it differently but it was still good. But i relaly love the soundtrack.
It's a little weird cuz the girl and guy don't end up together in th eend which you would think I would hate, cuz I am a fairy tale believer til the end and always want happily ever afters but it is still good. Though i ugess in some ways depressing but in some ways uplitfting. I tend to listen to it whne I am in a bad mood but it is uplifting but kinda sad too. Ok not sure about any of that. Anywho, It's good and in the performance we saw the girl had the most awesome green dress I ever saw!!!!

I was trying to find some clips on youtube but they are mostly really shoddy productions by who knows what performance groups so this is the best of what I could find of the orignal cast performing to post
.








Afterwards we walked around Lewiston, a little bit artpark and went to the something something for dinner. I can't remember the name. it was with a B. Brickyard perhaps? They have bbq and it was really good, I had ribs and pulled pork and beef brisket and mac and cheese and french fries and that makes me osund fat but I gave (e:mk) my corn bread so that makes it ok right? All in all a lgreat day!

That is how many minutes until 2010. 2009 is flying by but I am hugely optimistic about 2010. It seems totally arbitrary I know to think things will change cuz a year changes but I am cautiously optimistic, i tihnk i described myself as hugely optimstic like one sentence ago, thats quite a big drop to cautiously pretty quick but I am optimistic none the less. Hoping for change both for me and for others. Only two months til then, and this ants got

High hopes, he's got high hopes, he's got high apple pie in the skkkkyy hopes, so anytime you're felling sad just remember that ant, whoops there goes another rubber tree plant.

So as compared to usual where I come up with my costume day before/day of, i actually have had this idea for a while. But I haven't exactly decided how to pull it off. I have bought every kind of suppoly from face paint to poster board to christmas decorations to felt to glowsticks, not sure how it will all pan out but hopefully amazingly! at every store I have went to people have suggestions of how to do it and they are all so different so we'll see what happpens!!!!!!!!

OMG! I want to see this movie sooo bad!I think it is out on DVD already! It looks like it would be sometihng I would love. I have always loved a Midsummer's Night Dream and anything involving it. I have always loved loved loved the character of Puck! and i love musicals. And i love everything that it seems like it is! I want to see it now!

Happy Birthday Sarah!!!I think I have the day right? Even if you are 10 million and a half miles away I am sure you are being amazingly amazing as always. If you were here we would party like this....
