Broadway - The Golden Age

We made the 6:50 movie last night. Wow, did I like it quite a bit. I must own this when it comes out on DVD this fall. If you are a fan of theater, music, or the history of American entertainment you must see this movie. Its slow-moving at times (given that its made up of a series of interviews) but we both enjoyed it quite a bit (even Brian, who could care less about musical theater, but said it was a thought provoking movie for other reasons).

Note, sorry for typos - I'm being lazy :)( Read more... )

Quote of the Day:

"Sorrow shared is halved, and joy shared is doubled." - Native American Saying (though, my calendar doesn't note which group said this - but its still neat anyway).

Its so cool out today - which makes me excited about the fall. I like the summer and all, but I'm more of a fall kind of gal. Crisp colored leaves, baking apple pies (from apples we picked), smoshy sweaters, and the turning of the wheel are things I look forward to each year.

I'll be crafting tonight (making another pair of leggings for Brian for that Aragorn outfit - hopefully this one will fit him). BTW, this is the version of the costume we're working on (with some help from http://www.ashtonomicon.com for the armor bits - except for the maile, which Brian's making): http://www.theonering.net/movie/scrap.static/5803.html

Does anyone want to join me for stitch and bitch? Late notice and all, but its more fun doing crafty things with a companion. I have plenty of tea and cocoa to share if the cold continues :)

In case you didn't know,

there is another Krispy Kreme donuts opening in MA (this weekend, I think). Its going to be in Saugus on Rt. 1 somewhere. I know that doesn't help much (driving aimlessly down Rt. 1 looking for donuts is no fun) - but I can't remember where they said it was.

"They" refers to our HR Department. Apparently to promote the new place Krispy Kreme came and gave us a buttload of donuts for each campus. Yeah, thats a way to promote health on hospital campus': give out free donuts! :)

I was a good girl, I stayed at my desk and ate the grapes that I brought in (though it helps that I'd have to go outside in the rain and across to the street to grab one of those tasty treats).
