So last night we got tickets and went to a local high school here because they were doing "High School Musical" as their spring musical. Now keep in mind last weekend I went and saw "Thoroughly Modern Millie" at my old high school which was absolutely utterly phenomenal. The gal who played Millie is beyond her age in talent. She will do something some day she's so good. So I went and saw this professional production and came out impressed and yada yada yada. Cut to last night. We went early and got our tickets. Not a lot of people showed up which should have been my first clue. I mean come on, High School Musical. The movie was huge. I have a 12 year old, I know every word to every song and I bet she's had it on the TV 50 times at least. So I thought what a good idea to see this musical and see how it translates to the smaller stage. We got decent seats and I was not prepared in any way for what I saw. I figured there would be *some* talent. I was wrong. There was not a very big cast at all which makes it kind of hard when you're singing the big numbers and need lots of voices. The audio was in and out in the headsets so that was annoying but even the leads couldn't sing very well. There was not much talent. AT ALL. Now maybe I'm biased (which I know I am) and stuff but I expect to go to a high school musical and have at least *one* of the actors be able to sing and perform. I guess maybe I expected too much. Mediocre talent and people not singing off key is normal these days. But not at MY old high school. They were professionals. Every last one of those damn kids and sing and perform. Oh, and did I mention my old school has the largest music department in the whole state of Nebraska? Oops, failed to mention that. Anyways, the musical sucked ass and Jax and I left at intermission. Can you believe that? We didn't even stay to see the second act!!! Jax said you know it's bad when *I* leave because I'll sit through anything that involves music and a performance of any sort. It was hot and muggy in there to start out with and add to the mugginess people sucking ass, it was no fun. So we grabbed Mickey D's because we had a SUPER early supper and were starving. Then we hung out at Laura's for a bit. Oh, and her and Shaun are whatever they are. She won't let him move back in at all. Their "breakup" didn't even last 48 hours I don't think. The next day he gave her a dozen red roses at school and they've been together off and on since then. All of that shit for nothing. It's ridiculous. What he doesn't want to realize is that she's still moving in June, back home to work with her mom. And for somebody that doesn't to move with her or have anything to do with that, he probably doesn't need to be hanging around and making it hard for her. If he doesn't wanna go, then fine. But then leave her alone so she can deal with her life. But that's a different story because I'm not convinced whatsoever that he wants to move back in because he misses her or whatever. He wants to because it's closer for work. It's crazy. But it's THEIR life and that's the way it'll go. Diane and Rebecca still bug the living shit out of me. So far we made it through an entire day of them not trying to mooch anything off of us. But it *is* 8:21 and the day isn't over yet. Went and saw my nephew today at the place that he's currently living. He seems to be doing okay. I don't think he truly understands the enormity of everything. He just wants to get out. And he wants to do anything he can to get out of there, good or bad. I'm afraid not much is going to change when he gets back home. Other than it's going to be worse because he can't even go outside, he's going to be on house arrest. It's going to be very challenging. He's so young and I can totally see him going right back to where he was, because he doesn't have the ability to understand what road he's headed down or how it could affect the rest of his life. I just hope that someday he does, but I don't think it'll be anytime soon. Hopefully it won't be too late. and I know I have no control over this so I'll just deal. Crazy crazy life I lead some days. past and future A few hours my ass! - 2007-05-07
Archives Cast Rings 101 things about me about me
I am a 34-year-old college student, mom, friend and all around sarcastic and fun loving person. I'm going to school to be a nurse. I recently quit a high paying job from home to get back into the hospital setting and to get my feet wet in nursing. I work on the Maternal Child Unit which includes the birthing center, perinatal care and Pediatrics. I LOVE IT! These last few years have been all about changes in my life. Although they have required great sacrifice, I know it will be worth it when I'm through. I have a great life and great family and friends and occasionally bitch about my white trash neighbors. Mostly here you will find rants and raves about various people, places, and circumstances. ENJOY! Loves: Nursing, chocolate, my daughter, family and friends, diet coke, Grey's Anatomy (DUH!), being out of my front patio in the summertime with my neighbors, babies, US Weekly magazine, reality TV, being smart and being a mother. Hates: Chemistry, online cyberstalkers who have no life but to be online 24/7 causing drama, my white trash neighbors, pepporoni pizza, mice, bugs, when it's too hot outside and I get sweaty, seafood, backstabbing people, liars, crooks, and when people play the "victim" and whine 24/7.
