Birthdays and Starstruck Daze

Sun Jun 28, 2009, 12:33 PM
First off, my birthday is in exactly one week, the 5th! :party: The reason why I'm posting a journal entry NOW is because I'll be gone during the Fourth of July weekend, visiting my best-super-awesome friend down in South Carolina~! :aww: So yeah, I shan't be around my beloved DA on my birthday...day. And yes, I'll be gone from 2nd-6th. Road trip! :faint:

POINT IS, I loves me some fanart. >3> If anyone wants to draw me something for my birthday, even SCRIBBLES, I'll be a happy 22-year-old! =3 :dance:


Other piece of news, which I'm still reeling from:

Who here knows the Jekyll & Hyde musical? :wave: You've seen me post stuff here and there in my gallery, and I know I've gotten a few folks into it who weren't familiar with it before. Anyway, those who know it, the prostitute Lucy Harris has most often been portrayed by a very distinctive and wonderful singer named Linda Eder, who was, for a bit, married to the composer of the musical (Frank Wildhorn). My family has been a huge [collective] fan of hers for MANY years, and I've basically grown up on her first album (from 1991), knowing her long before obsessing over J&H.

I just got to meet her last night. :love:

She came to sing with the Columbus Symphony Orchestra, see (Marvin Hamlisch conducted; 'twas Picnic with the Pops, so outdoor concert), and since my parents both play in it, I had a unique opportunity to slip into the guest stars area, armed with our original Linda Eder album, hoping she would sign the insert. Incidentally, it was intermission, and I had to go to the bathroom. Mum and I (I slipped into the building with her, heh) could SEE her standing at the end of the hall, but we couldn't exactly march right up to her, and so stayed huddled around the corner like a couple of lunatic-stalker-fangirls lying in wait. RIGHT across from us was the bathroom. Finally, worried I wouldn't have enough time, I handed Mum the CD with instructions to accost Linda Eder if I wasn't back in time, and ducked in. I practically raced out, aaaaaaand BAM. Instant I opened the door, there was the back of her sparkly green dress, and Mum waved at me and said something to the effect of "She's right here!" as the CD insert was signed. I, meanwhile, clapped my hand over my mouth and uttered "OHMYGOSH." Which was about all I said for the next several seconds, along with a very inane "Hello" when Ms. Eder turned around and moved politely out of the way.
...She's very tall, by the way. Jeez. Anyway, I was barely coherent as I tried to express what a big fan I was and how awesome she is, but I'm sure she got the gist. ^^; She was very subdued, but friendly and quite appreciative of our compliments. And tall. Did I mention tall? Dang, woman.

It was especially fun to cheer for her during the second half of the concert, after that. ;) When she asked the audience how many people knew who she actually was, and when she mentioned Jekyll & Hyde, I was one of the only people "woo!"ing from that corner of the audience. lulz. xDD I have to say that the highlight (well, other than the meeting/autograph) was that she mentioned she wanted a beer, and someone from the audience actually brought her one and handed it to her up on stage. :XD:

ANYWAY, I'm done fangirling! xDDDD;;; If all you know of Linda Eder is J&H (or if you haven't heard of her, and like Broadway) I suggest finding some of her other albums and giving them a listen! She's a "fantastic artist" (which I THINK I ended up saying when I was babbling at her...hard to remember ^^;)~


Fiiiiiiiinally, I'm flipping out, here, with all of these ideas trying to punch their way out of my brain like an alien out of a stomach. :dead: CLM, TCD, DnD, Insaneography, 1912, helping out with TAG, other RPs, other unshared story ideas, and now this Egypt thing....gwaaaaarrrrrr. :surrender: Boy I need direction. If anyone wants to let me know about what they're interested in/what they like, lemme know. And none of that "you do what you want to do!" filler stuff, because what I want to do changes from day to day. :shrug: xD;;


Peace y'all~
