Wicked fun right?


So man I should have done this a while ago. Here goes. This update is about my trip to Omaha which i should have brought a camera for but didn't really take a whole lot of pictures took more with my phone I'll get those off sometime lol That aside I think it was last weekend I went off to Omaha for a Showing of the Broadway tour of Wicked. But first it was the weekend that most assuredly the best movie of the summer came out. Or at least the spring. Star Trek by JJ Abrams or however you spell his last name. Went to the midnight showing of that which was oddly at 9 oh well. After drenching myself in the awesomeness of that movie. I gave Cherry a call and she was at Mel's Tavern some band was playing so I figured why not go check them out. It was the CD release party for a band called pyschostick. This band was amazing and i don't ussually like metal music but their song just cracked me up. Well after the show they needed a place to stay so they basically crashed in my living room and aside from the crazy storm that night slept well. Having gotten 0 to no sleep that night I promptly got up early and went and gave plasma after hanging with Cherry for a bit and then it was off on a 3 hr road trip to omaha.
Keeping myself going with a steady stream of 5 hr energy drinks I managed to make it there without falling alseep. After getting there a little later than I meant to I met up with my parents and we all went to see Star Trek at the IMAX god lord that was an experiance I had to wait like 20 min before my eyes finally adjusted to the screen. Going back to stephen's dorm after that I got pulled over for speeding and given a ticket because the speed limit in Omaha is all sorts of wonky. But i was speeding and you can't argue what you were obviously doing.

The next day i made sure to sleep in as long as I could and then it was up and off to see Wicked this preformance was amazing to see live. I had heard all the music before but it just didn't do the production justice to see it all happening before you from the time clock dragon to the high flying wizard defying stunts of the leading green lady. All of it was definately worth it. i was sad that Cherry had to miss it. But she did win best kiss at the Manhattan TAP awards. So cheers to her. After the play we went out to eat but I just wasn't feeling it as far as staying in Omaha so I drove on home and met up with Cherry, Caitlin, Ariana, and Chelsea. Had a few at the bar laughed and went on home for a much needed rest that wasn't on a dorm couch.

All for now catch you again soon.
