Tulips ~ Brooklyn Botanical Garden
Happy Brooklyn Day! Alright, so now those people in Queens have glommed onto the idea and insist that it be called “Brooklyn/Queens Day,” but it started in Brooklyn over 150 years ago. And in case you’re curious, it’s basically a holiday to celebrate children – all public schools in the Borough have the day off. Unfortunately, that does not include public colleges, so I am at work. But we get to take the afternoon off for fun, games, and a cookout to celebrate that “Holy shit, we made it through Commencement and another year!” I support that.
After the festivities this afternoon, I will be taking off early. My friend Amanda and her mother ended up with an extra ticket to see Threepenny Opera tonight, and they’re giving it to me. For free. I love them. I love getting to see Broadway shows for free. I especially love that Alan Cumming is in this production and that it’s being held at Studio 54, where audiences can drink in their seats. Getting drunk while watching Alan Cumming is my idea of a good time.
But no, Bunsen, I will not yell anything about velvet ropes or pens to Alan Cumming during the curtain call, no matter how drunk I get.
You should go to the Nigerian Spam Scam Scam. No Alan Cumming, though.
Sounds like an EXCELLENT time. Enjoy!
I’m all for a day off for festivities. Enjoy the play!
How wonderful! Have fun!!
Brighton~In general, I did.
Vince~Except when the festivities are rained on. I grabbed food, I came back to my office. But I refused to answer the phone or unlock the door until the festivities were over.
KtP~Pretty decent.
Retro~That sounds like a fun play! I wish I could see it.
