I've been meaning to write a letter to Raúl. It will be my first "fan" letter. I've been semi-composing it in my head for awhile, but I just haven't sat down and put pen to paper yet.

I actually wrote something that I feel was enough to Raul. It was short. But it was honest. And I really feel like it made a difference. I found that once I got past myself, it was actually quite easy to write to him.
I would love to write a letter, I mean a real pouring out the soul letter, letter to Michael Cerveris. Especially becuase he always goes out of the way to make me feel comfortable, and we always end up talking about silly things that seem like they mean nothing. But actually mean the world to me. It's just so hard. I'm scared of writing something that comes across as "creepy". I don't want to invade his privacy at all. And I also don't want to sound like a young girl and say "I loved your tv show!" I've tried so many times. But I don't know where to start. Sorry for bringing him up yet again...
I want, in some way, to tell Adam what I really, truly think of him before he leaves New York. I don't know how to do that.

Em, I think you should. And nothin' says lovin' like a like a good jar of jam! Or maybe you could make him cupcakes. That have a picture of his face on them.
Or you could give him a whole bunch of sporks.
Hey, what about a shadow box? I think those are so cool.
ETA: I really am serious about the shadow box...
I'll bake him a goodbye cake. And then he will RUN to that West Coast.
Seriously. I don't deserve his time enough to hold him there while I pour out my fangirly-yet-not-so heart. I want to say something meaningful, though. He's finally starting to get it, and now he leaves.

He'll be back. I don't mean that in a terrible way. He will miss New York. ...like Roger says!
When I found out, one of the first things I thought was "but you missed New York before you could unpack...."

Amen! I still can't believe I did that. I was this close to not doing it.
Em, you really should tell him. I don't think he'd see it as you taking up his time. I'm sure he'd love to know.
Well, if you look at it as the ego-stroking that it is, he wouldn't hate that at all. I'd just be so full of "um" and other throw-away words that it'd take too long. He'd probably just look at me like "okaaaaaaaaaaay."
*loving bump* It's been a quiet day...
Em, you should definitely try to get it out, somehow. Maybe you could talk to him on Tuesday at the screening, if you get the chance.
YAY! Welcome to the craziness.

I thought I would show some Raúl lovin' really quickly. Even though I can't stay.

*Raúl love*
It has been quiet! I guess everyone else has lives today. It snowed here, so I'm not in the mood to deal with going out.
Welcome to the madness.

Ulch. I've had cramps all day. Oh the joys of being a woman.
Ugh, that's certainly no fun. Feel better!
I just almost choked on bread.
My room smells like coconut shrimp, but the hallway smells like rum, so it's like a nasty dive bar in the Carribean.

Me too, Chrys. Me too. So I've used it as an excuse to eat lots of chocolate!
Don't die, Em!
mmm. Chocolate.
Chocolate. Good idea.

*breaks open the Hershey bar* Oh yes. Chocolate is my friend.
I have fun-size Crunch bars. I was going to go to the gym tonight but I'm too tired.

Gym. Ha ha, that's a term my body isn't quite familiar with.
I was supposed to practice tonight. But I've been buying things on ebay, and listening to Evita!

I haven't actually gone to a gym in months. But I do yoga. So that counts, right?
I need to stop being a lazy bum.
