Jekkyl & Hyde the Musical

Last night I had the fortunate experience of going to the Theatre and seeing the musical, "Jekkyl and Hyde". I will be the first to admit that I was more than a little leery going into this play, I had seen a production of it several years ago with a different star  in the lead role,  I don't want to name him, out of respect, and really insulting people is a little harsh, especially after twenty years. The current production is starring Constantine  Maroulis  and a singer named Debra Cox.

To say I was blown away is to put it mildly. All I could think during the show was this is like when I saw "phantom of the opera", it was that good. The show moves without any slow spots and the singing superb. I know that we were the first stop of the tour, but if I was in any of the other cities that it going to, get your tickets now. IT'S REALLY THAT GOOD.

A Shoe Salesman really?

Today they officially retired the #55 which was Junior Seau. The ceremony was emceed by Dan Fouts. The first time I met Dan Fouts, he was a shoe salesman. I got a pair of Pink Adidas, awesome!! He measured my foot and was so nice. My mom and dad knew who he was, I was 12, I could have cared less. In the next few years he emerged as a Superstar. I can only think it's because he sold me a pair of shoes.

Hunger Games

I'm reading the books of "The Hunger Games" , and I have to tell you that the books are a fascinating take of the future. Scariest scenario that you can imagine. When I was in the 5th grade I read a book with a similar theme, it was called The Most Dangerous Game. Has anyone else drawn a comparison to the two??

Regardless, I am addicted to this series. I have been staying up nights reading there books. I don;t want to see the movie until I finish the series. Absolutely fascinating.

pretty woman the movie

I know it's a fairy tale, no one ever comes to rescue the girl. prettyimdb.comJulia Roberts had it easy.

The Ballet

Did I ever mention that I had never been to the Ballet until recently? Well it's time to cross this one off of list. I have now been to the Ballet. My sister went to the chiropractor and he so kindly gave us tickets to see " Dracula" the ballet. Images were in my head of some really hot guy like Barishnokov dancing in his toe shoes, ballet going to be dark and romantic. No such luck.

They start off with about 5 ballerinas doing a little "ta da!!! number, which was amateurish at best. The oldest ballerina was around 14 years old.  It was slightly painful to watch. 

Now mind you, the setting has alot to do with the production. Right now you are probably thinking "Civic Center", Valley View Sports Arena, no wrong again. We drove to beautiful kearny mesa, about  2 miles from where I live and it was behind an industrial building.

They yanked the chain and the door to the Storage Space opened, we knew were in trouble (like my sister always says, "Ah boy"). There were 3 rows of carefully arranged folding chairs. No expense spared there!!

My sister says, "Let's go". But I feel bad because they will definitely notice if we leave, so we soldier on through and the 2 act "Dracula" begins.  

Picture this, the character homer simpson, with buck teeth wearing a cape, plodding along. OMG!! I had all I could do not to burst out laughing. This is there idea of Dracula?? Is there a hidden camera? Are we being punked? I mean, come on I'm not famous why are  you playing a joke on me? 

It continues for about an hour, and it's hot in there. Really hot, I'm sweating, trying not to laugh for an extended period of time has been a real exercise. But at least I can say I have now been to the Ballet.

Rolling in the Deep

I I was listening to Adele today, and I can totally relate to the words "you're going wish, you naver have met me, etc. Then I'm on facebook and people post these "jokes" that I know are directed at me, but the people think of them as innocuous humor, let me tell you, I offend very easily. I know I should stay off facebook, it's juvenile, and frankly I'm above it. But I play the silly games, and let;s face it, they are going to regret it. Really. They tear apart the man I love, they have no idea what the hell they are talking about. Silly little games, no to me. Words can hurt, but so can images  that don't relate to me that are meant to poke fun at me. I don't see the humor in calling me a fat black chick. I'd say EFF off to their face. i'd have no problem with that, come look me in the eye and say that. I'd tell anyone off at any time, I have no problem with it. 

I read this book

With some details of my life, basically it was someone pretending to be me. Honey let me tell you, my life has been far from a picnic, so anytime you want to trade places, be my guest. Seriously honey, Jenny the blogger, come spend one day here and you'll know what the definition of Hell is. Why plagarize? Have you no original thoughts of your own? It's really not hard to write, just be yourself and quit using my family as a reference guide. Take an x-ray and put that up on your site; that's one way we would know who's the fake. No one can have the same insides as me. No one. So get a life, and quit stealing my identity. Basically, go to hell..Her too, she can suck it.
