Annnnd, it's Friday. The week seemed slow, but yet, too fast. Aida opens next week and Dear Edwina Jr the next week. Then it's another week and we're off to Munich. Oh, and next Sunday is a surprise 40th birthday party of the DP that I'm throwing here at the ol' homestead. I'm hoping for a party of epic proportions. Early evening, dusk, garden party, very reminiscent of the final episode of "Downton Abbey" season 1. Without the announcement of war, I hope.
