From the Hilton, Ave of the Americas, NYC, USA, N. America, the world, the galaxy, the universe, the dimmension, the string, the ...void

If LA and NYC are my zodiac signs then LA is my sun sign (the sign which gives me the tools acquired to accomplish...) and NYC is my rising, my life journey, where I am to end up.

I absolutely love this city. I cannot wait for the day I move here and live here. And I don't want to think about leaving...but I did become a member at MoMA because admission for the four of us (family) was cheaper that way, so I now I will use that as an excuse to return....I have to make use of my museum membership.

Tonight I saw Wicked, and it'd been a while since a piece of theater (no matter how broadway it may be) was sooooo inspirational. Ana Gasteyer is my new broadway idol, infact both the witches in the show....such great work. Inspires me ot start dancing again, and reminds me how excited I would get watching such reat performances, that feeling that told me to do it as long as I could. Which leads me to say.....

A director I worked with in Minnesota, who is from LA, is doing Blood Wedding in San Jose CA and has cast me as the BRIDE!!!!! First of all, Blood Wedding is one of those plays I swore I would o before I died, and now I have the female lead. I am incredibly thankful for the opportunity, and for the anticipation I now have for really working on a show again, really beign challenged, and working with a director I really work well with.

My parents are supreme. I could not have asked for better. Dad suggested we come back to NY at the end of every year as our family trip. Mom and I are gonna hold him to his word. The thing is though...its' hard now that my sister and I are older and we all want to do different things. They didnt have fun on "my day" when I chose for us to go to MoMA and hang out in Greenwich. My dad was happy taking a bus tour and visting Ground Zero. Today my sister got her shopping day, which yielded me a pair of shoes. And my mom....well I think she's happy overall, and tomorrow mornign theyre gonna try to get on the Regis and Kelly show while I go to the Guggenheim cause I know they won't want to. We have fun together, but we're all obvioiusly very different. And I of course want to go out at night, my poor sis cant since she's not21, and my parents well they don't go out like that. So last night I hung out with Amol, my new friend, and his friends and had a wonderful time partying at one of the DeLuca's (yes as in Dean and Deluca) restaurants.

As far as home goes....
I saw TV guy the night before I left. Since I left the office, he kept trying to hang out with me so finally I said ok. And I of course though it was a friendly thing after we sorta got distant with each other back at the office. We had a good time, walked to Barney's and played pool then made fun of people karaoking...and I was reminded about why I liked him....We have fun together...it's fun, and he is a nice guy. And lets just say now that I don't know how we've left it off. Things transpired, noting serious, but now I am confused as to what is going on. Ezpecially since I am still in a "I belong to God and no one else" sorta dating mood.

Ah well.
Pics from NYC to come.

Oh yeah. Amanda got engaged! (congratualtions my wittle pwetty fwend) Which means I was right. Ellie first, then Amanda, and Lindsey says she's talking about engagement with Thad. That's 3 out of 4. I am the fourth. Hah.

If I were you, I'd give TV Guy another shot. If he screws it up again, that should be it. What's to lose? :)
