Admit it, you jumped on your bed as a kid, but imagined it being this :P
My only gripe would be that the finale wasn't a big wow like I remember Saltimbanco and Dralion being. Still great. And in fairness to them this show was a bit different: a clown is dreaming he's died and is watching his funeral which is basically a carnival.
If you've never seen any Cirque show live and get the chance jump at it. Videos don't do it justice and there really isn't a bad seat even in the cheaper seats you see all you need to see. I hope they get paid well... crazy stuff. Like me, personally, hanging upside down high up while a man hangs by my hair = not an appealing job, even if I were physically capable :P
Ooh and $22 parking seems insane to me.
And... we saw a lot of big planes tonight. You'd have to look very hard on that pic I posted, but and the bottom of the forum parking lot there's a big plane. This would be because it's very close to LAX so while outside waiting to go in we saw lots of fairly low large planes going by. Air traffic is so busy there I suspect it'd be nearly impossible to take a pic at a time there isn't a plane or two in the shot of that neighborhood.

That about sums up my past day or two.

I better feel better by Saturday, I am NOT missing Cirque, I'll be there even if it means infecting all of LA with this cold ;) I still think it's just a sinus thing though, haven't got the nasty cough and stuff than mom and Windy had, so fingers crossed. Though Brian is sick now and might be taking today off as he woke up with a sore throat and is a sniffly as me now.
Oh and for the record, while I am sure she still has her moments, my sister has improved greatly... as in she no longer looks like she's dying / a skeleton, she admits now she WAS using but isn't now, etc. She even thanked Brian for our hospitality... *blinks*
*snifffffle* *sneeeeeeeeeeze*
Mom, are you feeling better yet? Did KeeKee make you go to the doctor? Did he find his Dutchie bracelet, haven't seen it here.

Show us a clown.
I am quite excited, but it's still 5 + months away.
5+ months isn't really that long, except when you're staring at tickets in your hands for Cirque Du Soleil and you haven't seen them in YEARS.
Btw, this is one of those VERY rare times when I just pointed the camera phone my way and clicked on the capture button, and posted the only picture I took. No trying to get a better picture, etc. Go me. Clearly I've not yet chopped my hair and there's very little pink left. Will probably get it cut next weekend.
In other news:
I sent Bender his memory and USB flash drive today. When we got to the post office Brian was like can you even send this in the mail? That had me worried. NZ is always the most expensive / takes the longest / pain in the butt place to mail stuff to. It was easy, even with $250 worth of insurance.
Went to Best Buy. They finally had Hollywoodland in WS so I got that and Reality Bites ($5 and I liked that movie). Brian got Titanic and Who Framed Roger Rabbit?. Plus we still have American Psycho to watch. Not sure when though, he's going to see the band of his friend's kid tonight.

I am going to see Cirque Du Soleil's Corteo in August! Muhahahhahahaha! They're the "cheap seats" (which are $55 each) but the other shows I saw were in their cheap seats and still had a decent enough view.
