Without expectation great times are had.

I went to see 'Catalpa' last night at the vaudeville mews.... it was the best show that I have seen in such a long time... incredible. Michael Cassidy is a talented, beautiful, charming, and hilarious individual. You know those moments where you are completely into what is in front of you and you forget, completely forget all of everything else for that minute. I had about twelve of those last night.... I didn't want this show to be over. I could have sat, completely content, for at least another day. Great work to all who are involved. Which leads me to my next beautiful, talented, charming and hilarious individual... a certain someone by the name of Spencer. Spencer is Sam's (my very important one in NYC.. HHHEEEEYYY!!!) brother. I had only met Spencer one time and I was well into my evening at the time. So I go to this show with some peeps from work and awww- there he is... and he laughs like Sam, which made me miss Sam but also created an instant level of comfort with Spencer. After the show we had a few (or WAY TO MANY) drinks at various local establishments and by 12:00 there were four of us left; Spencer, Mike, Kristi (jr.and highschool friend that was in acting classes with Mike at Iowa) and myself... there were literally no bars open down town so we travel to the garden because we want to shake a little something. We walk in and there are the usuals and the a group of what I will refer to as "who moved the rock" I am not judging but everytime I looked at these people they were looking around the room like it was the first time they had seen daylight since summer... and there was no daylight.
Karaoke was happening so we decide, at Spencers request to do a guy/girl duet to "Summer Nights" cliche, I know- but that was the purpose- and wha do you know- we each got a dollar tip. holla! So we dance for five more minutes and then we are out of there. Cody was there and I didn't even get to talk to him because I was distracted by talented, handsome STRAIGHT men in my company. *** Cody was with a girl I don't know and she looked like she was nice and they were having fun and it felt a little weird...I think it is more the fact that we don't even talk enough to know what is really happening with each other...or that we may be at the same bar on a Thursday*** the four of us leave and it strikes me at a later moment that we are bar hopping like buildings are burning down. We were literally not in the same place for more than 40 minutes. Though it wasn't as if we were looking for something better- I think moreso it was that we wanted to share something with the rest of the world. That and by that point we were all pretty tossed and had the collaborative attention span of a gnat. Spencer.. mmm... I want to kiss his face. (disclaimer to all of the griffins who read this: not kiss his face in a creepy way, rather a appreciative way... I just can't get enough of the griffins!)

It was a great night. but I felt a little like yesterday when I rolled into work at 9:00. Not even a hot shower could wash away that night.

This weekend is my supa giving weekend. Saturday I am walking in the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation walk... and Sunday at 5:30am (eughf) I am manning the phones at the Variety Club telethon.. Sunday afternoon I am going to my Grandmas house to clean her bedroom.... she has been ill and her dust bunnies in the corner were telling jokes.

have a wonderful weekend.
