I'm going to New York to see the production there - nothing is stopping me. Late April. It will happen! And then I can see Avenue Q too, and all sorts of other things.
Actually, the production last night was pretty good, too, for amateur suburban musical theatre. We went mostly just because it was Assassins, but there were a couple of very good performances. Cute theatre too - seating on three sides, which they played to very well, and small enough that the performers didn't need to be miked. That's always a treat.
Then after we got home we somehow fell into a long depressing discussion about the future. I really feel like I'm treading water - like I'm waiting for something to happen before I can begin my real life, but I have no idea what that might be. I'm not in school anymore, and unlike so many of my friends, I'm not working toward a career in the arts. I'm not working toward goals of any sort. My life as it is now could be my life in 10, 20, 30 years. So why does it feel so temporary?
Also, I'd like to go travelling/vacationing, but I don't want to go by myself. So I need single friends with money and vacation time. Hear that, people? Get out there and make some money so you can go on vacation with me. :)
