"Happiness comes when your work and words are of benefit to yourself and others." Buddah

What a great weekend! I went to visit a friend in STL with another friend from our college days. My friend, E, that lives there works at the Fox Theatre and she had free tickets to see Kristin Chenoweth. In case you are not sure who she is, here is a brief rundown...


As Glinda the Good Witch on Broadway


In 4 Christmases

So...I am only going to post those 2, as those are my favorites. Anyways, great time seeing her this weekend. We went to the show and as we are walking up there are 2 women wanting their picture taken. So we stop and try to get it just the way they want it, they can't get the flash figured out, and we can't get the moving billboard where we need it...then it works! Next they start asking us how much we like Kristin and I thought they were signing us up to be on a mailing list...no, they weren't. The woman goes, "Well, I am her manager, find me after the show and I will take you back to meet her." Meet her? Meet Glinda? Oh dear! so...we watch the show with excitment, go back after the show, end up in the private party area, and bam! we meet her!!! She signed our tickets and took a group photo with us (coming later). She is so sweet and funny! It was so much fun!

The weekend, overall, even without meeting Glinda...I mean, Kristin...was awesome! I slept in a great apartment on the 14th floor overlooking this beautiful cathedral, went to some really fun places, and had really good dinner thanks to the hostess. It was just great.

Then a LONG drive home Sunday. And now it is time to begin Monday. I need a cappuccino.
