Someone once gave me a tassel off of the main rag in Phantom. It's not that pretty and it happens to be rather large. But I suppose it's a little piece of Pantages history hanging on my wall. Hmmm looking at it I would say maybe I should dust it or something, it's got at least a quarter of an inch of dust on thar...

Thanks to the joys of general educational core requirements, I'm currently taking math. Now this means that I'm going to have a whole entire weekend of studing a subject I have spent the vast majority of my life avoiding like the plague. (or bad 80s hair, take your pick)
Now this morning as I was sinking into the depths of despair, knowing that there was no hope, no light, and no avoiding the hideous creature 2x+y=8x, I decided to procrastinate. (go me!) In the course of

Love "Pink Fish", it's an older Alan Menken song about... I believe....a Texas guy's first experience with lox in a jewish deli. Very funny =)
