But, we did have a night of fun last night! Eric and I had tickets to see "Rent" on Broadway. It's actually going off Broadway this weekend...the final performance is on Sunday, so we knew we had to get in to see it ASAP when we got to town. Our seats were in the front row of the center balcony, so pretty decent! And as you might expect, the show was just fantastic. I laughed, I cried, I loved every minute of it.

After the show, we stuck around to take some pictures and were there when some of the cast members were leaving, so I got autographs of the performers who played Angel, Mimi and Roger! I also got pics with them. They were so nice, especially considering the mob of people that attacked them when they came out. I can't imagine trying to leave after a night at work and being hounded by people. I wonder if they like it or hate it? It made me think of Heather and her Busch Gardens shows...she has to stick around in front of the theater after each show for people to come up and talk to her and take pictures. Maybe someday she could do the same thing on Broadway!

I should also add that we WALKED to and from Broadway! That is just too cool, if you ask me. It was a little longer of a walk than I may have preferred, considering I was in heels, but given our surroundings, it was well worth it and very enjoyable. We're so lucky to live in such a cool place!
