Have fun Erika! Also, congrats on the recording and the Sister Act offer. I'm stuck going to class all day. Then I have a stumble through of act one of The Music Man. (Off book for the first time even though we haven't learned all the music and have barely blocked anything.) Enjoy NYC for all of us that are stuck elsewhere.

YWIW, everyone on the board has been to Bee with me, considering how often I am there! They just might not know it.

Erika, have a great time in the city!

Excellent news. Saw Hedda last night, Cate Blanchett was very good and I saw my soul mate in a parallel universe.

Wexy: ...and I saw my soul mate in a parallel universe.
Elaborate, please! =)

Glebb: Thanks so much! You know, it is pretty freakin' cool!

I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE Brian D'Arcy James' voice. I'm so jealous. What kind of recording is this? Will it be commercially released?

Sounds like you're having a great time in NYC! What wonderful opportunities you've gotten to be a part of! Sounds like you've worked your way into "the network"....Can't wait to hear more about your adventures!

I spent my day trying to get 3rd graders to sing 3 partner songs together for their concert on Wednesday and, well...let's just be glad they're cute! And then trying to get my 4th graders to stop singing "If I Had a Hammer" with a Southern twang (don't ask where they discovered this...we're in PA!) and sing "You Raise Me Up" well enough to make their parents cry!

[erikaamato]

Posted: 3/9/06 at 10:22pm

singingwendy: LOL...that is SO CUTE! I can just hear them now twanging away on "If I Had A Hammer." Hee! Good luck with it!

spider: lol... Awwwwwwwww... I'm flattered! I'm kind of psyched right now, myself!

Ah, Erika! We were both at LCT last night

erika, I few years ago, I always saw this woman on the subway who always had funky hats and was studying computer books, One day she was reading a theatre magazine and that was my 'in' and I struck a conversation. Next time I saw her, I invited her to a play, It turned she had a boyfriend who was a client of my office. She worked near me and we had lunch often and there was palpable between us thought nothing every happened, eventually the boyfriend didn't want her having lunch with me. I ran into her once since then until last night.

I see this woman coming down the stairs with a funky hat on. It was her. She gave me a hug and a kiss. And told me that she was still with the guy. She then introduced me to her sister and didn't know how to describe me (friend, whatever) I almost said that we were soulmates in a parallel universe ( which we may be), Afterwards, we were holding hands outside the theatre when we parted.
