Oh my goodness!!!!!!!!

Romeo and Juliet was AWE-SOME! In the future, I must always see a ballet from the front row because that is the place to be. We could hear the dancers talking. Juliet, at one point, yelled at the people carrying her. It was in Russian, but Britt and I are convinced she either said "Get your hand off that!" or "Don't drop me!"

At intermission I was all about the coffee. I'm feeling it now. I'm so not sleeping tonight. Also during the intermission, I became aware of the irony that the old man next to me was a smoker, but whenever the fog machine was on, he was annoyed by the smoke. Irony of ironies. Love the one that poisons you slowly. Hate the one that doesn't.

But back to the ballet. The guys that played Mercutio and Benvolio were hilarious! Especially when Mercutio dressed in drag and danced with Tybalt (who had a certain resemblance to Satan). Britt and I kept laughing at Merc's antics. The rest of the audience must have thought we were completely nuts. Then at the end, during the curtain call Merc and Ben totally saw Britt and I waving at them. Oh good times! Good times not easily forgotten.
