Am I the only retard that DIDN’T know that Central Standard Time (CST) becomes Central Daylight Time (CDT) between Spring Forward and Fall Back?
Guess what we tried this weekend? Hershey’s flavored Bubble Yum. Read it again if you must: we chewed chocolate gum. And honestly? It wasn’t half bad. For 15 calories a piece, it’s a quick chocolate fix.
I am wearing a swishy skirt today. Because it’s spring, and as I promised yesterday, our highs today will reach the low-to-mid eighties. But because I am wearing a swishy skirt, people think I am “dressed up.” It’s one of my favorite signs of spring.
I neglected to gush about Crossing Delancey yesterday, because I was trying my hardest to not be online if I could help it. The weather made the outdoors irrestible, and I learned why we keep Charlie around:
It was so gorgeous yesterday that I couldn’t help myself. I wandered out to the backyard and the sun was calling me, so I shimmied out of my top and pants and just sprawled across the backporch. (One of the luxuries of living in a house versus apartments or duplexes is having your own yard to be nude in as you please.) I kept hearing Charlie zoom by me as I lay on my belly, and I realized that he was actually chasing wasps away from me as I slept. It was awesome.
Anyway, Crossing Delancey was a fabulous show. Caroline was AWESOME as Hannah, the 70-something matchmaker. She did fantastic things with her physicality, which is my new obsession in theatre. I’ve seen too many actresses only commit with their heads, so I’m all about watching someone wholeheartedly play a role. She was fantastic.. I watched her hands the entire time she was onstage. She even got the inappropriate patting down.
Kevin was also great. Quite frankly, Kevin was HOTT. Yes, he plays a bit of an ass, but that made him all the more hott. He made me long to be a jewish bookstore owner. Seriously. Hott.
Anyway, a great show. Totally worth seeing, especially with a group of your closest friends. So you can all dress up and drink too much before ushering. AWESOME.
Last night, Bryan made dinner (OOOH! AND I MADE BREAD!), and then we took a looooong walk. We walked all through Five Points, and Twickenham and Old Towne and Downtown and everywhere. After almost two hours, we made our way back home, where we practiced lines with eachother.
In other words, we played a married couple last night.
Encore! Encore!
