Aww Skittles. I can't sing or dance at all...that's why I do pit Course that doesn't stop me from doing it on the streets of NYC...poor NYers.

I personally find it easier to approach Raul prob b/c of what I talked about, I think the only people that really get me shaky/nervous are the ones I've been fans of years before the idea of meeting them seemed like a possibility. Raul I met right after seeing Chitty, which was the first time I saw him perform in anything, so that's probably why I find it easier.

I always think it's funny when you approach Adam Em b/c I can relate you tap him and he looks around a bit and then finally looks DOWN to see you. Hehe.

Heh, that sounds familiar Em, I think he said that. Where was I recently...maybe the Wicked DC tour where someone at the door made a big deal of thanking us for being a great audience and said you guys are as important as us--without you, we'd just be rehearsing.

I sort of... step out of myself, or something. I mean, for me to be like "hey! Adam!" ... wtf? Honestly.

But how great does it feel when you have that moment of stepping out? And then look back and you can't believe what you did. Sometimes I have moments where I blurt something like can I go backstage or something to that effect that I can't believee I just said something like that but it ends up working out really well that I somehow let that slip out of my mind. If I think, I wouldn't say things like that. Like I didn't think w/ the TTB boot

I remember thinking "what the hell are you doing? Shut up, you're going to do something stupid." But it wasn't like I was going to be like "hey, Adam!" and he'd look at me like "erm, you are....?"

Okay. Long day ahead and my alarm goes off in 7 hours, so I'm taking my Brokeback Mountain-on-the-mind-again self to bed. Goodnight!

Posted: 1/9/06 at 2:06am

And at 10PM I was tired, knew it was too early to go to sleep and I would be up at like 3AM for the rest of the night so I figured I'd watch Legally Blonde and go to bed at midnight...good day for it, I have a big day tomorrow w/ Phantom...yeah, you like how I went to bed at midnight.

I think I had a little of that out of body when I had to go up to Idina alone(thanks by the way :-P ) at the Rent set. I actually took a little while to actually take the step to her and say her name and such and I mean...it wasn't quite like I didn't feel like I had to control, but I remember looking back and thinking I...cannot believe I did that. This was still when I was extremely shy around actors. And I mean, you know, I love Idina, I loved her in Wicked, not gonna deny it. I think looking back it's one of the moments where I'm just I'm like I'm so proud of myself for doing that.

Oh, I sing and dance on the streets constantly (see pages here about Chitty closing). I just know I don't belong on a stage doing it.

It's nice that you remembered what he said. I was too busy thinking "God, that sounded stupid!" to really understand his response.

I have nothing to do tomorrow, so I'll probably just fall asleep to Chess again :/

Aww I know those problems Skittles, trying to remember conversations but you can't remember what they say b/c you're too busy either criticizing yourself or just thinking I'm talking to so and so.

Chess is a really good thing to fall asleep to, for some reason. I've done that on more than one occasion. Maybe I just get the urge to watch it right before bed or something.

That's why you brought me with you. So I could remember it!

That was such a fun night! I was recently looking at my pictures from it again and also the clip on Kentertainment brought me right back.

I need to see Raul in TNH somehow. *searches*

[ElphieDefiesGravity]

Posted: 1/9/06 at 9:55pm

I do, too. It is one of my dearest wishes. I saw...part of it...yeah.

I'm seeing TTB on Jan. 28!

[Alix7272]

Posted: 1/9/06 at 9:59pm

Mine too! I found it on a site but I don't know how much I'm willing to pay.

YAY!

As it says in the title...

TUMMY TIME!








I sincerely hope Raul does not read this thread...

[ElphieDefiesGravity]

Posted: 1/9/06 at 10:36pm

...And, some other cute ones, including some I had not seen before.


He looks like a munchkin!

I haven't seen many of those pictures either.

I'm listening to Company right now

Great picture of Raul and Norbert!

I like his shirt!

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 1/9/06 at 11:17pm

He is quite the well dressed fellow.

[orangeskittles]

Posted: 1/9/06 at 11:20pm

I like his shirt as well. And it's not striped!

[Alix7272]

Posted: 1/9/06 at 11:20pm

Indeed he is! *sigh*

Considering this thread has much to do with my reaching my legend status, I felt that I should announce that as of yesterday, I have been a BWW member for 1 year

And DAMNIT! The one time living in DC would pay off for me!

I got so exited until I saw the date. I could "spontaneously" decide to come back and visit my family, but that's the weekend I was planning to go into the city! Grrr.
