Yesterday somehow became busy, despite the fact that I really didn’t get anything done. Including posting.
Jen and I went downtown last night to see Anything Goes at the Hobby Center. The tickets were originally for last Sunday night, but the horror of the mere thought of missing the Super Bowl had us exchanging the tickets for a different day. Theater Under the Stars is nice that way. Easy exchange, and the show was great. Not much of a plot to speak of, but funny bits and great songs, including a couple that I knew well but had never known they were from Anything Goes — I Get a Kick Out of You, Night and Day, even Friendship. I’m not sure how I even recognized that last song; maybe Mom used to sing it?
On our way home, it was foggier outside than I can ever remember seeing before in Houston. When we got off the highway, you couldn’t even see the mall. You couldn’t see the street signs. It was so confusing and eerie that Jen even took the wrong turn on an exit she’s used a zillion times before. And the 100-foot tall light poles with their rings of lights looked like alien spaceships landing all around us. It was spooky and cool.
I have a half-formed mental blog entry about my career aspirations, or lack thereof. I guess I’ll post it when it’s fully formed.
I was the old lady in the wheel chair who bowled everyone over through out the first act. Then I was in the chorus in the second act. It was THE spring musical at my school. It is a wonderful production.
Lady in the wheelchair? There wasn’t a lady in a wheelchair in this version…
