Part two of Jacques and Gilles baby shower. Baby Grace has already made her debut into the world so congratulations to the new parents! I hope she is still just as chill and sleepy as she was when big poppa and I visited her at the hospital. I'll keep this post nice and short since there is a large number of fotos. Auntie nosmo and uncle big poppa will be paying the new family a visit very soon!

Musik Mundi: Glee/Wicked
I finally saw Wicked! I always thot that I would wait and watch it in New York but who am I kidding. I would never set aside that much time to go to the theatre when I'm in the big apple. But when I got notice that Wicked would be in town, I jumped on it. I bought my tickets in FEBRUARY. Orchestra, center, row k. Awesome seats. The musical was really good, although I think I could have done with a little less singing. It gets to a point when the music is forced and it's not so appeasing to the ears. The crazy thing is that I went thinking I didn't know a single song. But thanks to Glee, I instantly recognized Defying Gravity cos it was one of my faves from the show. The main stars were so GOOD! The power and range of their voice was just amazing. Antsymama told me that book is really different and a lot darker. As we were driving home after the show, I saw this old dude with white hair waiting to cross the street and realized it was the Wizard of Oz! EmDee rolled down her window and we all shouted WIZARD! He waved at us so I think we got the right guy. My co-worker who also saw Wicked this weekend told me that the guy that played the wizard, Richard Kline, played the sleazy neighbor Larry in Three's Company! Argh. If only I knew sooner I would have actually made big poppa stop the car for a nice little foto op. Haha. High F!
