Ho Ho Ho

Ho Ho Ho, and a bottle of rum!!! (now that's some christmas spirit!) hehehe

Minneapolis, take two:

we were very successful on our second trip to Minneapolis!!! the show went up! HerSelf was in great voice and gave one heck of a show!!!

My thanks goes out to my wardrobe crew too. they ALL kicked ass!!! great people, talented, helpful, efficient, and down right rockable. thanks again ladies for making a very hectic day so productive and livable.

yes, they did their local proud, and i don't say that lightly, or very often...

now i'm just a bit bored... yes, i said it. i'm bored. how can i be bored on tour? well, let's just say that while i'm grateful for the day off, i would rather be working. we got 2 days off (ok, a day and 1/2 once we finally arrived here in Indy). It was FANTASTIC to not have to wake up this morning, but if we were doing the show today, i would be going home tomorrow... now you see where i am going with this... hehehe

I'm keeping myself busy though. i've seen two movies in the last 2 days; which is completely unheard of in my world. going to see a movie is a pretty amazing event to begin with, but two in the course of two days?! unreal!

i started with Twilight last night. It's pretty and i wasn't expecting too much other than twinks and skin. It delivered. it was beautiful to watch, but not too interesting at times. I got fidgety more than once. the special effects were cool though, and i did enjoy the james dean hair and pouty lips. but that's really about all i can say about it.

today i saw The Day the Earth Stood Still, which was more enjoyable and had better special effects. again, i wasn't expecting anything (K Reeves rocks my world) and i didn't get antsy much. I also think Kathy Bates is really great in this film (as usual), but the real award goes to the little kid. amazing performance. very natural acting style, and utterly believable, even if he was a brat...

any of you who are familiar with Indy, i want to tell you this. This morning, at approximately 10am, they imploded the RCA Dome in downtown. it shook the hotel i'm staying at!!! i'm very glad they warned us the night before or i would have thought something terrible was happening. i heard the explosion and felt the earth move moments later. luckily the wind was going in the opposite direction, and so we weren't breathing the dust afterwards. i feel sorry for those that were in fact, down wind.

well kids, that's all i got. the final show (this leg) is tomorrow and i get to return home on Monday. I'm very much looking forward to my 10 days off, even if i've managed to book them full already. I've got some important meetings to attend in the first couple of days, in addition to yet another dreaded visit to the dentist (and i just know we are going to now pull the other 2 wisdom teeth). fun, right?

Hope you all are warm, and enjoying your holidays!!! i miss each and every one of you. Hopefully i get to see most of you while i am at home.

much love and much light and many blessings upon you all!
