Jennifer and I went to Shakespeare in the Park Saturday. The performance was "Much Ado About Nothing" and is now in my top 3 Shakespeare plays (Julius Caesar and The Tempest being first and foremost). The acting was wonderful but we were completely put off by two factors #1. They used modern music!! When I go to see Shakespeare I expect madrigals! END OF STORY!! #2. The woman in front of me was not only dressed 3 decades too young for her but also missed the memo that smoking in a public park in NY was banned a good 5 years ago! Maybe it's me being uppity but when I see theater I expect there to be a certain level of class upheld. I'm not sure if this woman had ever heard the definition of classy but if so she obviously had NO intention of reaching such a state!! That being said, I can't believe I went so long having no idea we have an outside amphitheater in Syracuse!! I'm truly a dope sometimes : / It's so lovely and I can't wait to see it in the Fall! I wore my favorite summer top and jeggings (my new favorite pant). I didn't bother to comb my hair at all but at least I threw on some eye makeup in the car on the way.

There was a star danced, and under that was I born

Sooo I figured I's start this out by posting some random facts about me...
My name is Gaelic for laughter
Lilacs are my fav smell in the whole world and my favorite sound is the symphony tuning up before a performance
I like to listen to musicals when I make dinner, and I'm like Rachael Ray in the kitchen
My dream job would be working with women in the sex traffic industry in India and China to help rehabilitate them
I have a deep affinity for glow in the dark objects
In 4th grade I went a year refusing to answer to anything but Elizabeth because I thought it was a much more regal sounding name
I love peanut butter on graham crackers...I love peanut butter in general
Growing up I wanted to be a nun
I had goats instead of dogs...explains a lot about my childhood
I don't think I've fought with my brothers in at least 10 years
I LOVE historical based movies and documentaries
Hot pink is my favorite color...not pink..HOT PINK
I collect owl jewlery because they represent wisdom...unlike most girls who love butterflies (FYI girls butterlies pretty much die if you touch their wings...do u really want ot represent urself as like the weakest creature?!!?)
I think everything sounds more fun in German
Whenever I watch an action movie it makes me want to train to be a warrior!!
When I get around people with accents I start talking in the accent, but I don't mean to
My family randomly bursts into Broadway showtunes and musically parodies at least 50% of our lives...and I didn't know that wasn't normal until 11th grade
I cry at Hallmark commercials cause I'm such a softy
Someday I want to be awesome at violin
I'm AWESOME at limbo!!!
I think Irish people are the most fun out of every ethnicity
When I go out for ice cream I like to get a chocolate/vanilla twist because it was what my grandpa always bought me as a kid
I'd describe my style as bombshell mixed with rock n roll artist
