Comeback

This is my attempt at a blog worthy of reading:

So catch up on lost time. Last weekend and part of the week was Mardi Gras. It was probably one of the best Mardi Gras's that I have ever had. I spent all of my time with my friends, some drinking, and chilling out. What a great a holiday.

Recently, I have been thinking of my title as "slut." For the most part, it's just a joke with my friends, but it's a joke created and exaggerated from the truth. Now, I've been thinking about this. I want to deviate from this slutty lifestyle and get a boyfriend.  I came came kind of close to finding someone I really liked, but we started getting somewhat close a couple weeks before he moved out of state. I think about him every once in a while and I wish that maybe he would have stayed or maybe... I don't know. I need someone to look forward to seeing everyday, someone to enjoy losing track of time with, someone to break out of my house to go see, someone to talk to about stuff (pointless to deep things), someone who I can be myself around (because I get shy around people I don't know), etc. Of course, I want him to get the same things from me. But at the same time, I don't think I want to give up my slutty style. That's where my experimentation and experience comes from. But I also can save that for the someone (if/when I find him). I don't know. I think I will just go with the flow.

And to tie into the theme of making a comeback: I need to get back into a show. [I kind of stretch it, but it still works.] I need to get into the whole process of a show: audition, new songs, lines, dances, tech week, performances, etc.

I thought I had more to talk about. I guess it's kind of late, and my brains a little tired from a long day and being sick. I think this was a slow comeback into blogging. [Yeah, I'm still trying to tie in the theme.]

This is the amazingly talented Kerry Butler singing "Fly Away" at the Defying Inequality: The Broadway Concert held that I mentioned in my last blog post. This is song was written for the new Catch Me if You Can musical that Kerry has been cast in. Towards the end of the song this Tony nominee (yeah, I had to plug that in) belts the ever-loving Buh-Jesus. It is so amazingly awesome. It sounds so challenging, but she pulls it off stunningly.

This is Sutton Foster and Megan McGinnis singing "Flight" (usually a solo, arranged into a duet by Michael Rafter) at the Barnes & Noble for the release of Sutton Foster's debut solo CD, Wish. This is probably my newest favorite song of all time. It is simple astounding. It is, dare I say it, PERFECTION!


This is Aaron Tveit singing Pasek & Paul's "Along the Way." I think it was either originally written for their song cycle, EDGES, or it is a new edition. Either way, it's pretty hilarious.


This is a video I randomly found while searching for Carly Jibson (center). She's fierce. This is "U Know U Want It" at THE BIG SHOW (some NYC cabaret show).


BAM!!
