all kinds of randomness...: 01.05

my life is too busy

I know it's been um... 23 days since i posted last. (thanks Care for nudging me). So things have been completely insane in my life.

Shortly after i had the GE business cards printed the client decided that she liked the logo originally suggested better than the one she choose. So i redid her business cards and moved forward with everything else i've been doing for her. I'm so frustrated it's beyond belief. but at least there's a nice check at the end of the rainbow. What's the moral of the story? TRUST PAULA she's usually right!

The first weekend in January I had the unbelievable fortune of seeing Idina Menzel's last full performance of Wicked. I know i've been obsessing since October but really... this was the best show i've ever seen. Idina was heartstopping! The chick who's playing Glinda was a scream! so hysterical. The production value was phenominal... seamless. And as it turns out so fortuitous that we saw the friday show. saturday afternoon during the melting scene Idina fell through the trap door and cracked a rib. Soooooo sucks for her. Now the lead is being played by Shoshana Bean. i've heard she's different... nobody could replace Idina!

Two weeks ago i had a fantastic shabbos dinner at a friend's house. J, L, A & me plus J's 7 year old son and a ridiculously big german sheppard named Judah. Needless to say it was an enteraining meal. After a very nice walk home, I went to bed to be woken up at 4:15 am to someone trying to break into my apartment. so obviously i screamed my fucking head off which made them run away. I jumped out of bed lunged at the window and then ran around turning on every light in the house and checking all the windows. they were locked TG! the police came. found nothing... then i called J (different J from the above mentioned J) and woke him up at 5am crying. what a mench! he dragged his ass out of bed and came down to stay with me. aaaannnnndddd Just to prove that we're not old farts we went out to breakfast at 7am (after no sleep). Go us! but really... i don't know what'd do without him.

I know there's more but i can't think... just another excuse to post again soon.

i can't believe it's a new year... where the hell does the time go? here's hoping 05 is full of new things. good things. i used to write a year in review on january 1st. maybe i'll synopse here. (is that a real word?). work work work... the spring and summer were full of condo hunting stress. in june i went to israel. how fantastic was that? new friends, new experiences, a passport with a stamp in it! then the closing and the painting and the schlepping and the moving. i've been here 6 months now... it's starting to feel like home now. starting. in august i got my shining moment in the spotlight singing in what should really be considered a dumb little concert. but was really a big deal for me. it's been a really long time since anybody paid that much attention to me. fall is always a mess of running around. holidays and youth groups and my own life. what life? i've probably overbooked my life, but hey, i need the money and i love working with BBG so... i guess it works out. I still havent even seen any of that money i'm working for yet, but i guess it'll work out soon. then as luck would have it the freelance gigs started rolling in. more cash that i need, but... sleep is good too. oh hey, forgot to mention my ali thing in may. that was pretty cool. meeting ali sweeney. not only meeting her but meeting her for nearly an hour. SABs wedding planning was a bit of a stress for me, but i'd rather not rehash. i guess the begining of this new year 2005 will be just as crazy as the end of 2004 was, but maybe there will be an end in sight. a rest at least. so... here here... good bye 2004. hello whatever the new year brings.
