Wicked Weekend

The big happening this weekend was that Whitney and I saw Wicked.

We had seen it before a few years ago in Tulsa but this version was so much better. The lead had played the part on Broadway and she was so talented. Almost gave me goosebumps. It was sold out...although the people sitting next to me left at intermission. I'm not sure why you would do that when our seats were $100 each. Whitney gets to go again in a couple of weeks and she can't wait.

We had started our evening at Cheesecake Factory. We both just got an appetizer so we could order cheesecake.
I got white chocolate caramel macadamia nut. It was so delicious. Only ate half of it and took the rest back to Whitney's dorm before the show since I had to drop her off after the show. She got oreo cheesecake and literally had two bites before boxing it up.

I got home so late that I forgot to set my alarm and slept to late to make it to church to serve. I did make the later service to hear the talk which was really awesome. And then Dan installed the new door knocker on the front door that we've had for a few months to match the new lock. We only need a new kickplate and hardware for the screen door and that project will be done. We also went and ordered a new mattress. We had bought one in July and absolutely hate it. So the store gives you one year to change your mind. Ended up buying one a few hundred dollars more than what we originally bought but you need a good one to sleep.

Friday Fragments

Not too many fragments today. Guess I'm not not fraggilicious?


Half-Past Kissin' Time

No stupid criminal this week. Guess they either weren't stupid enough for me to hear about or the criminal world is getting better. Nah...who am I kidding, I just didn't hear about them.

After so much rain this year, we haven't had any for a month. I had to water the tree we planted last fall because the leaves were starting to turn yellow and it is still 90 degrees. I don't think that should be happening yet.

I'm happy that the birds are loving the birdseed I'm putting out but they sure are messy. Piles and piles of seeds on the ground. And I have hummingbirds again which I'm very excited about.

Tomorrow night I'm taking Whitney to go see Wicked in OKC. We saw it a few years ago in Tulsa and she wanted to go again. So I bought tickets and then she recently found out that her scholarship sponsor is taking them to see it in a couple of weeks. I told her I could take either mom or Dan but she wants to see it twice. 

I'm trying to get back into the swing of cooking again but after being sick it just isn't happening. Although last night we made hamburgers and corn on the cob and it was really tasty. Guess I just need to get inspired.

The county fair is this weekend and I'm considering going. It is free and in town. The state fair starts next week in OKC.
