shadowkat1. Ack. Politics...
Pretty much my stance on the topic.
2. There was a black bear sighting in New Jersey so they locked down the schools nearby. It was a sighting of one black bear.
3. I'm bored. It's not good for me. And at a loss what to do next. Also, still have brain fog. I find myself staring into space a lot or with my eyes shut at my desk, just breathing. Having difficulty focusing on anything for any length of time. I keep jumping around.
4. There's close to 39 New Shows on Broadway This Year.
The biggest mistakes to avoid in regards to Broadway. What to Avoid. (This is actually true. I've sat in all the horrible places in theaters - because of getting cheap tickets. Phantom of the Opera - I saw in London, from partially behind a column. Also do not sit too close during a musical.)
The best seats are at the back of the orchestra section. )
* Torturing my theater geeky self by watching Making of Merrily We Roll Along Revival - which has tickets priced at $249-$449 (that's when Daniel Radcliff is in it), and when he's not? $199-$83. Sigh. It's not worth the price.
* Water for Elephants - which has some good dance numbers and circus numbers. (Also stars the star of the television series The Flash.)
* Keep seeing ads for Illinois - a musical featuring the music of Sufjan and choreography of Justin Peck.
* Co-worker suggested Heart of the Rock and Roll by Huey Lewis (basically a jukebox musical - which I don't like. The only one I liked was Mamma Mia)
* Back to the Future - The Musical And Johhny B.Goode and.. It Works - IDK, it just makes me want to re-watch the movie.
* Not to be outdone, The Outsiders has also been adapted, it's closer to Water for Elephants in that it's a book adapted to film then to Broadway Musical. This was produced by Angelina Jolie. Great Expectations from the Outsiders and Tulsa (which by the way is actually a pretty good song...or better than expected.), Stay Gold - hmmm...that's a good song, one of the better ones, it stands out from the rest. Little Brother from The Outsiders.
They also have a revival of Cabaret, again. Tempting that.

There are a few bears up in the Saguaro National Park a few miles from me. They are seen from time to time. They don't seem to cancel school when that happens here. {/snide humor}
