I Got My Tickets

I am soooooo excited! I got my orchestra tickets to see Spamalot on Broadway! They are for the eighth row, but even that was almost impossible to come by, even though they are for May. That is a good sign, though. This show will be hot! I'm glad I can contribute to actors' salaries, not to mention the techs and all the rest. I am happy to go back to New York City for a few days, too. What a great city! I hope to spend more time in the West Village and go shopping in China town this time. I am going to be very broke for the next few months, but work is good. The band is completely booked just about every weekend until the end of the year, and my car is still kickin'. School is expensive, but it is worth it.

I love my Communications cluster. There are only six people in my class, and although the class is supposed to go until ten, we get out around 8:30pm-9:00pm, because there are so few of us. The only downfall is, because it is three classes in one, there is reading and writing in abundance! I don't mind, though. The weather is so cold here, that it is a good time to have to spend time in the library doing research. My eyeballs get tired from all of the reading and typing, too. I am discovering some phenomenal authors, though. I am re-discovering why I love Edgar Allan Poe so much and I can see why Ambrose Bierce is such a cynic. Now I don't feel so bad about being cynical.

Here's yet another reason why I love this country and life in general: I was driving to class last night. On my way to class, there is a mini strip-mall with a health club, pizza place, and bar and grill, all in a row! There's nothing better than having a few beers and a pizza, then going to work out, getting sick, and throwing it all up. That's my kind of workout!
