Spring Update

They're calling for snow again tomorrow.

...and thus begins Spring in the Midwest!

I just thought that I'd update this on the off-chance that anyone still looks at it. So back to where I left off, I guess...

"Chicago" went exceedingly well. --Especially considering the fact that the first time that the ENTIRE cast was ever together was opening night. I'm serious. Once the lights came up on stage, it was as though we'd all been there, rehearsing diligently together for months. As Geoffrey Rush says time and again in "Shakespeare In Love" --'It's a mystery'!

Pip just finished the high school's spring musical ("High School Musical") last weekend. She said that it was fantastic and that the cast did a REALLY good job. She was student producer for the show, so wasn't on stage. I'd have gone to see the show if she was onstage. I'm not saying that I didn't think that her part wasn't worth supporting --quite the opposite, in fact. I just don't care for the music in that show, so didn't feel the need to sit through it. I supported the crew by making rice crispy treats and Fruity Pebbles treats (same concept at rice crispy's, different cereal).

For our spring concert, Chorale is doing a 'kids concert' at the Perrysburg library. The music doesn't 'wow' me, but we like to give back to the greater community from time to time and since the library is one of our biggest supporters (time and talents vs. $$) it only stands to reason that we'd put together something that will fit their demographics. The concerts are April 12th & 13th, so pretty soon my Monday nights will be clear again!

Graduation is right around the corner (June 7th if you're interested), so I've already tried to start planning for that. Pip's mom, aunt, and siblings are coming up for it, so we've been checking into hotels and such for them. I don't see us having a graduation party for her, there's really no time for it. --Besides, we live in an apartment called 'Lilliput' for Christ's sake!! Four people tend to crowd the living room!

Well, since nothing of note is really going on, I'll let you go back to reading blogs of importance!
