I'm finally feeling...Wicked

I finally saw Wicked. I say finally because this was my third attempt to see the show. I missed it the first time it came to Phoenix because by the time I knew it was here and it was worth seeing it was sold out. The second time I tried to see it, Dave and I were in New York. It was November of '07 and I bought tickets online way in advance. Well, a few days before we left for New York we heard about some Broadway strike that was going on and several of the shows had been cancelled indefinitely, including Wicked. Despite all my wishing, hoping and praying the strike didn't end while we were there, dumb stage hands, and we missed the show. So needless to say I was so excited to hear it was coming back to Phoenix. It was every bit as good as I hoped it was. And I'm going to see it again and again and again starting with New York in November, I hope...

Yeah I also missed it the first time around, it was sooo good. By the way Canyon Lake is near Apache Junction. How are your YW holding up with your news??

Hey, if you are coming to New York in November, let me know. I would love to meet up with you (we live about an hour away). It would be fun to see you!
I'm glad you got to see Wicked finally. :)
