Highs and Lows

Very rarely do I fully lose my temper, but when I do, I am a thing to behold. By which I mean a very tired, very hungry two-year-old. Today I was brought to this point by the website for "Spring Awakening," believe it or not, when it wouldn't yield me the sweet rush tickets I so desperately needed. Fortunately, Nathan and I hauled ass down to the theatre (I mean hauled--we covered the space between our hotel and Times Square on foot, during the evening theatre rush, in less than twenty minutes) and managed to get reasonably priced tickets for tonight's performance.

Review: it rocked. I loved it. Totally made up for the frustration of earlier today. Though, sadly, not the persistent rain. Dag.

And that, actually, is about all I have to report at the moment. Today was relatively uneventful, due to the aforementioned rain and ticket crisis. Tomorrow we're planning on going to some more museums due to bad weather and the need for more art in our lives. I'll try to overhear something exciting to add to my list. Oh wait! I forgot that I had one for today!

Overheard in New York: Daniel Radcliffe edition.
Man Waiting in Line for "Spring Awakening," Talking to His Friends: "That guy from 'Harry Potter' is going to come do 'Equus' here. Apparently he goes full-frontal nude, and there's more than a mouthful there."

I couldn't end on a better note than that.
