Avenue Q is AMAZING!!!!

I went to see Avenue Q last night and let me tell you that it is amazing! It's a parody of Sesame Street for adults, and some of the songs are "The Internet is for Porn, If you were gay. So funny! I think that if you get a chance you should go see it. I went with my mother and she loved it. The show is really funny, but has a lot of serious undertones it it. And they have TV's that play the cartoons like they have on Sesame Street. I've had the songs in my head all day. "If you were gay......that's be okay "The internet is really really great.......for porn!" Go see it!



I know it's been a seriously long time, but here are my updates. I got a promotion at Target and now am working as the HR clerical, which means I do schedules, punch corrections, and ordering supplies. It pays .50 more an hour, which is not much, but a raise nonetheless. I also am employee of the month. I know exciting! :) I got a free CD out of it (Juno Soundtrack), which was good, and I'm glad that the team recognizes the work that I do.

I also was cleaning and I came across something that I wrote my junior year of high school. It was in 2001, so like 6 1/2 years ago. I think it's good. It was for my Women's Voices in Literature class.

Daddy's Girl

Character: Sandra Marcus
(A sunny Saturday morning, around 9:00. She is in pajamas, a robe, and slippers. She is 38 years old. She sits in a small kitchen, drinking coffee. She's looking into her coffee as she talks.)

Well
um
I was born
on
the eighteenth of February
1962.

It was a rainy day
in fact,
it was pouring, when my mother went into labor.

They had some time getting to the hospital.

anyway

My dad was convinced I was a boy,
but uh-oh

Surprise!!!

I was a girl.

I think
in a way
I was a blessing.

My mom grew up with two brothers
and my dad was an only child
so that's how I became
Daddy's little girl.

He loved me
he really loved me.

I was a tomboy
you know
the uh
baseball
wait I mean softball.

I really loved softball

It was great being at bat
and being able to whack
well
excuse me
there's really no other way to say it.

I uh
I whacked the shit out of it.

It felt so good!

I think that's the reason
I was never that close
to my mom.

Softball was my out.

If someone made fun of me at school
I whacked the ball.

I never told my mom,
I hit the ball instead.

It was so satisfying
but
there were certain things that softball couldn't fix
then I told my dad.

I think my mom
resented that
that
special relationship
that I had with my dad.

She just didn't understand
I was Daddy's girl.

He loved me
and I loved him.

END

Let me know what you think. I thought it was pretty darn good for a junior in high school. I don't remember what the assignment was, but I had to write that for some reason.

The book this time is: My Point...and I Do Have One (Ellen Degeneres) It's random and funny.
