The show is quickly coming together.  It's amazing how much has been accomplished in 8 days.  Just a couple more bits in the second act to hash out, and then the show is completely blocked and choreographed.  AND not only are we getting so much done so fast, it's not even a stressful process. Plenty of time for sleep, and fun.  Saturday, Jake, Rach, Justine, and I went into DC for MaryLee's 21st b-day. So much fun and so good to see so many people from home.  It was a nice goodbye (: Sunday, the 4 of us went into Georgetown to show Justine around and do some last minute shopping.
Tonight a small group of us went to see "The Blind Side".  Dad, if you're reading this, go see it immediately. You'll love it. Very sweet movie.
I think I might try to get an amazon kindle before I leave....
They're expensive but I reeeeeally think it'd be worth it for me to get.  One of the boys in the cast, Andrew, just got one and he sat and tried to convince me to get one for about 20 minutes today.  I have so much down time during this show, plus multiple 15 hour plane rides, PLUS all the commuting to and from each city, PLUS and most importantly teching the show once we're over there which let's not lie, i have a feeling will be a bit rough. A 25 person cast + 2, two-ton moving set pieces + a bazillion intense dance numbers + plus running crew that doesn't speak english? Ya. I think I'll need some heavy reading. Thoughts? Please convince me, because I'm having heart palpitations about spending that much money....
oi. ok i should probably become responsible and go to bed. night y'all. love.

  1. Maura and Katy have Kindles and I think we're getting my Dad one for Christmas. I have Maura's old one. I don't use it that much, but Katy and Maura are both OBSESSED. I think if you like to read you should get it because honestly if you're going to buy books to read during all those times than in the end the Kindle will be cheaper. However, you are going on a fun Chinese tour and might hang out with people on the rides/techs? So I don't know think about it, but I definitely think in general its a really good purchase.

    Thank God I just wrote that whole comment. Whoops. lol

  4. Go for the Kindle! And get an iPod Touch while you're at it, so you can buy an app to learn some Mandarin while you're there. C'mon, be ambitious!!! Haha.
