Like I said, it's a very loud game, but a lot of fun. I always play on the girls team, of course.

The girls in my class are outnumbered four to ten, but they are LOUD.

eeek...I happen to think the top row seats in the balcony were wonderful for Hairspray (only 30 dollars). It allowed my row of friends plenty of dancing and singing aloud room. I must say the LA Audience was not pleased with our unruly behavior, yet it was encouraged in NY where we saw it twice and the cast thanked us personally for our energy afterwards.

And did any other DR happen to read Frank Bruni's review of the steakhouse/restaurant of the Penthouse Club in today's New York Times?  He actually liked the steaks!

"I was in LA for What if" sounds unseemly. A little like DR MusicGuy taking someone to Paris for What if.

I wonder how many of those "What If" DVDs are still out there.

..well, all that I wrote in Post #500, AND I was trying to wait for DR Book-Key to come home to help me post my avatar.  I thought that would be most goddess like that on my Post #500 that my face would suddenly appear...so thanks alot Cason and Heather for spoiling my goddess vision for an inspired Post #500 -- I had to settle for some ol' stupid quote from a TV movie...most unseemly...

I do recall the rather large difference in price between the orchestra and upper balcony seats.  -And at least by sitting in the balcony, you're able to look at that wonderful ceiling.  -Which, apparently, is not allowed to be photographed.

OOhh...So who else had Mexican food for dinner tonight?

I did! We went to Chipotle, which is a Mexican fast food chain that we had never tried. It was surprisingly good---the meat is organically grown on family farms, no chemicals or antibiotics. And a strong margarita!

When the Vixter was turned 6 we had a birthday party for her,  during which  we set up her  PlayHut popup playhouse and the Vixter and about 20 of her dearest and nearest little friends all crammed themselves in and began jumping up and down shouting "No boys allowed  in here! No boys allowed in here!"


I suspect she would be a natural at "Hit the Wall and Yell at the Boys"

And then there was this paragraph that caught my eye in an article/interview with Paul Deen:

Quote

IS mayonnaise the food lover’s Botox?

One look at Paula Deen, the Food Network’s face of Southern food, and you have to wonder. Ms. Deen may be best known for drinking straight melted butter on television, but she also soaks Krispy Kreme doughnuts with custard, deep-fries refrigerator biscuits, and isn’t above digging her diamond-crusted fingers into a bowl of pimento cheese to make sure the cream cheese is blending in smoothly. In one afternoon last week, making the Southern lunch classics that started her cooking career — ham salad, pimento cheese, and an irresistible egg salad mixed with saltines — she went through two full jars of mayonnaise.

"two full jars of mayonnaise"?!?!?!?!?

Now that's a LOT of mayo!

Isn't Music Guy just scandalous?

Wickedly so -- but would we have him any other way? ..... (I know, I know, I left the door open for one of you to bring up butter ... probably Mr Music Guy when he sees this post...).... ;)

We dood it!  We have now smashed every previous haineshisway.com record to smithereens.  I knew we could - and we did it two hours before midnight.  

Any Wednesday is bad - while I've been enduring it, I've been paging through the play - which is very cute and funny.  The film spends twenty minutes setting up the plot - in the play, the audience understands the plot by the middle of page two.
