Cooking. Wow. I'm impressed!
I'm looking forward to Rosh Hashanah, because I'm teaching, which is always nice!
I'm not doing anything for rosh hashanah.
I IMed my sister (the 13 year old) and asked if she wanted to do something for RH tomorrow night. She replied, Like go to temple? I replied Hell no! I was thinking more like dinner and a show or movie!
Reminds me of celebrating Rosh H when I lived in Israel- spent all day at the beach. Ahh, nice.
Oh, Liotte. Where did the Jewishness go? To each her own!
Off to bed.
Wow, early night for you shira!
And the jewishness is taking an extended leave of absence.
I'm tired from walking on the foot-that-should-not-be-walked-upon.
Nighty!

I would like the 'Shira going to bed early' moment noted in the calendar, please!
I know I'm underage, but proverbial alcohol sounds lovely.

Em - you have been told OVER AND OVER that you are always welcome here!

Why 'half-hearted' sweetie?
I don't know. Rough week. I'm just... blah.
That's quite specific, isn't it?
But this is a happy thread, so I thought I'd pop in. Maybe it'll rub off.

Be careful about asking for rubs around here! Actually, at night - when the 'boys' are out playing - it's pretty safe
Sorry you're feeling 'blue'.
*cuddle*
Good night!
*collapses on pillow*
Liotte;
What did you say in your letter?
Just got off the phone with tech support for my ipod, it's on the fritz and it's annoying as all hell.
I just said that I had been given incorrect info from the box office about standing room tickets, and then to get to the theater today and wait 4 hours for nothing, and since it was sold out I couldn't buy a ticket even. Apparently they knew since Friday that there would be no SRO, so I said I wished they had put a sign at the box office, or a message on the website saying there would not be SRO for that performance. And that box office people shouldn't give incorrect info. I just wanted to bring it to his attention and said that there was probably nothing to do about it now. And of course, I said I heard nice stuff about him and that I loved the show and have seen it multiple times and I was very disappointed to miss this special performance. But alas, they passed along my note, and right before the show started, I got my $25 standing room ticket.
But how did that happen? Did they call you? Where you there trying to get a cancellaion? Did they come out into the lobby and page you?
I kept checking back in at the box office between the lotto ending at 6:10 and the show starting. At first they had nothing, then around 6:45 I checked again and the woman at the box office said that she passed along my note. I replied that I didn't expect anything to come of it, and she said don't be surprised if I get a phone call soon saying to come back to the theater. So no phone call, but I went to check in again around 7:25. Went to the window and after they sold 3 cancellation tickets, the woman said to me Don't go anywhere. So I stayed there in the lobby, she called me over to the window a minute later, and said I've got 1 standing room for you for tonight. I was thrilled and told her that I loved her.
good for you.
It worked out well and I was very happy to see the show. I'm surprised that writing a letter to the producer actually worked, I may drop off a thank you note next time I am in Times Square. So I guess that's, um, tomorrow?
No actually, no shows til thurs at least for me.
Oh sure, the one time I am up til almost 3am, there are no west coasters/aussies here for me to talk to.
I'm home...
Just got home... long, long day. 2 runs of the show, only 1 missed cue and one early cue. Not bad.
L - excellent getting into the show.
brd... I thought the same thing as your wife (about L5Y), that they're a bit whiny. But on-stage, there's some added dialogue, and they don't come across nearly as whiny as they do on the CD.
