My MUCH Needed Weekend, In Review:
In the immortal words of Hallmark's Yoyo And Hoops: "Weekend, Weekend, weee love the Weeeeeeekend! Aww, come here Weekend, let me give you a big smoochy-poo!"
Aaaanyyyywaaaay.....
Friday:
While technically not the weekend, I went and saw "Slumdog Millionaire" Friday evening with Brian and his friend Patrick. It was, in short, an utterly amazing movie. However, it has left me with the lasting conclusion that mostly everyone in India is a first-class butt-face. Sorry, non-butt-faced Indians. But other than that, I adored it. And the little kids were so cuuuuute! Throughout the movie my protective motherly instincts kept kicking in because of them :]
Saturday:
To all of you who attended Xenosound's phenomenal CD release party: I commend you. It was awesome, wasn't it? To those who didn't: You missed an excellent show, both by Xenosound and the other band (what were they called again??) that played. They made nearly $600, I believe, so that goes to show that it was pretty snazzy. Once I got over my initial awkwardness, which for some reason always creeps up on me at events like that, I got to do some serious jamming and rocking out. 'Twas fun. AND I got a prime spot because I'm dating the keyboardist >:] . Bwaha. My ears were ringing for hours afterward...
But yeah, it was really really great. Only, for some reason they didn't play two of my favorite songs of theirs, "Trifecta" and "Reason to Believe". Ah well. It's all on the album... But yeah. It was really excellent, right down to Gray's rainbow-ish jacket thing/ feather boa ensemble and Brian's metallic...gold...women's....shirt... Um...well, maybe not that. Still. If you didn't have the chance to buy their album, it'll shortly be available on iTunes, Rhapsody, and Amazon. Or so I believe.
Sunday:
Today my brother Henry and I got to see "Wicked" with our aunt and cousin. I got to sit in the center of the balcony, with full view of the stage. It was really awesome. I would KILL to even be on the tech crew for Wicked. And the costumes are...indescribably amazing. And the SET! I LOVED the set. It made me all warm and tingly inside :] Actually, the whole shebang made me all warm and tingly inside *twirls happily*
So yup, all in all a very very good weekend. Goodness knows I desperately needed it... Now, if I can just get "No One Mourns the Wicked" out of my head...
Aaaanyyyywaaaay.....

So glad to have been a part of your Wicked weekend. I have "Loathing" stuck on my brain ... must be a reaction to the crappola weather that we continue to have here!
Have a great week! Give the rest of the KathmanKlan hugs-n-kisses from Aunt Stessie. Tell Lamuel that his present is in the mail!
Let me know when "the boy's" CD is on iTunes. I desperately need some inspirational running tunes. Anyone sporting a glittery gold woman's top surely can crank out some music to keep an old fogey like me "inspired" when I'm running ... right? right?? right????
Love ya chickie!
I've been humming "The Wizard and I"...and speaking of crappola weather, we have 4 inches of snow right now *weeps*.
Ah, I shall. It isn't anything he could potentially use to terrorize me, is it??
I shall. I meant to bring it with me on Sunday so we could listen to it on the way to Louisville, but I forgot. And yes, definitely. Very inspiring to and "old fogey", or so I surmise. But I'm going to have to have a word with him about the top... :] Haha.
Love ya whooooole bunches.
