never fear

never fear, dearest readers, i'm not in the hospital again. i know that most of you assume this to be the case if i don't blog until nearly three o'clock in the afternoon, and i don't blame you. it's true that the only two weekdays i haven't entered a little gem into this journal were the times i've been in the hospital. crohns hasn't attacked again (no thanks to my doctor, who still hasn't call me back. the fucker.), though, so don't you worry about me.

more importantly, i'm going to see threepenny opera tonight with stadler and his girlfriend, who shall henceforth be called vicki. it'll be my first broadway show since i saw cabaret with amanda when i was 18. i know what you're going to say. i know that i live in new york and i should be taking advantage of it, going to see all the shows i can, that i can get student rush tickets, that i'll regret not going to see things like sweeny todd before they leave the great white way. i know that. but i also know that i love going home after work, eating dinner, and going to the gym. oh, and then i like to watch some gay tv on logo.

when ryan proposed tonight's little trip, though, i couldn't turn it down. though threepenny has gotten amazingly bad reviews--it's too long, choppy, poorly-acted, poorly-sung, etc.--i've wanted to see it since i heard it was on. mainly because of the completely fucked-up cast: alan cumming (loony), cyndi lauper (a bow to my queens pride), and nellie mckay (ew!). the first question everyone asks when i tell them i'm going is, "oh, did you get the tickets for free?" no, people, i am not quite hooked up in new york the way i was in baltimore. i'm working on it. until then, i pay for my theater tickets, even when it's for bad theater.

i have to get home right after the show, though, to get some beauty rest: nyc pride is this weekend.
