I kind of think the second part of the story drags anyway.  Tends to happen with musicals, I find!  I am looking forward to seeing it.  :)

That would be the play.  It does drag a wee bit.  Mmmm, Johnny Depp!  ;) ;D

I kind of assumed that.  I was raised by a musical theatre nut, and I don't know how I managed to avoid this one all these years!

Oh, I forgot to mention - the dream sequence during "By the Sea" is classic Tim Burton.  Very reminiscent of Beetlejuice. :D

1. My mom is coming to visit in March!  ;D ;D

2. My brother is coming to visit in March!  ;D ;D

Will have a very full house, but sooooo looking forward to seeing them!
When I am grown-up I will understand how BEAUTIFUL it feels to administrate my life effectively.

Until then I will continue to TORCH all correspondence that bores me and to dance NAKED over the remnants of its still glowing embers.

1. DH has secured a commitment from Oxford University to collaborate on his post-doc project. This will make his application, we hope, even more competitive!

2. My mother is coming in March, too!
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ~ John Lennon
