"Friends don't let friends become giant singing ponies."

Today, I'm grateful for:
  • yesterday's lovely spring-like weather and spending a lot of time outside.
  • reconnecting with Kim on Wednesday and realizing that we still operate on the same wavelength.
  • making a promise with Kim that we'll see each other much more often.
  • lunch and some theatre-nerd conversation with Nic on Thursday.
  • getting to see Dirty Rotten Scoundrels at Theatre on the Square thanks to Kelli.
  • this year's Oscars. I feel pretty confident in saying it was the best I've seen. Bravo, Adam Shankman. It was classy, elegant, smooth, and very entertaining.
  • The Legion of Extraordinary Dancers + Best Score Nominees sequence during the Oscars. Absolutely breathtaking. What a fantastic way to showcase both dance and outstanding original music.
  • dayquil and nyquil. I have to kick this cold before my audition next week (and the performances of Pinafore after that.) Being sick is not an option.
  • The 5th's 2010/2011 season, which was officially announced today. Brace yourself, it's incredible. Ready? In the Heights, A Christmas Story, Vanities, Next to Normal, 9 to 5, Guys & Dolls, and Oklahoma!! KICK. ASS.
PS: In case you were really confused, the quote in the subject line of this post came from a conversation with Kelli regarding a certain youtube video called "Ponies doing Musicals." I can't really describe it, but it's both terrifying and amazing... okay, it's just something you have to see. I thank the Fug Girls for bringing it to my attention.
