Royalty

I'm laying in bed right now too awake to sleep but too tired to do much else. My sleep playlist is on my iPod and I'm yawning like crazy.

Tonight I saw American film royalty. There's no other way to describe it. I went with my fried R to TPAC to see a very brand new musical called The Nutty Professor. It was fantastic! The music was great, the cast phenomenal… the set design was gorgeous.

Today was the 8th time it was ever performed (although it will be heading to Broadway in the future.

The show is based off of a 1963 movie with Jerry Lewis, and Jerry Lewis directed this musical. And today after the bows from the cast and the applause and cheering from the audience, JERRY LEWIS WALKED ONTO THE STAGE!!!!!!

I think I'm still a bit in shock.

He was… is… more impressive and genuine and funny than any trendy popular current actor.

Old Friends..

Can you imagine us years from today, sharing a park bench quietly...

My roommate is, I think, confused by my love of Simon and Garfunkel music. But with lyrics like that, can you blame me? It's like cleverly written movies. I love the beauty in the finely crafted words.

And after writing that sentence I'm still going to try to blog? *yikes* This blog, I'm sure, will be nowhere near as well written and put together as Simon and Garfunkel songs or Alfred Hitchcock movies. But I will still try:

I can't believe, dear friends, that I neglected you for almost whole month. I'm so sorry. I just looked and realized that I haven't blogged here since June 27th! Wow. I kept on "meaning" to and then continued on with my life. I'm not proud of me, but I have been living more. Doing more. Attempting to do more for me or because of me... and maybe failing at it less? Maybe... Maybe I just think I am.

I'm going to boot camp 3 days a week and getting the courage up to go outside and walk/run. I'm going to our town Farmer's Market when I'm able to and working on making smart choices when I grocery shop. I haven't seen many of my friends as often as I like, but I'm comfortable in the fact that I'm an adult and don't have to cram in all of my "friend" time together in the summer months.

Sometimes I miss those easy summers......
