Rent!
I saw the touring production of Rent this evening. I have seen the show in New York as well as the movie but I enjoyed seeing it this time as much as I did the first time! Only one disappointment - the two actors that played Mark and Roger left a little to be desired. I can't remember if I have made this comment before but as I was a music major - it is hard for me to enjoy a show like the majority of the
population. I
instinctively judge the performances rather than sit back and enjoy. On the flip side of the coin, I have the
privilege to really enjoy the performances of some really talented actors. The actors who portrayed Angel and Maureen were very good. The actress who portrayed Mimi - stole the show - man she was good.
It was a great show! I am so glad to be somewhere that provides access to these types of performances - right down the road from my house. How awesome is that!

Tucson
So with the new position...it looks like I will be staying in Tucson for a while. I am good with that. I will miss the opportunity to be closer to family and friends....which sucks....I had been trying to move closer to home for several years...but I think this opportunity will be well worth it. Plus more and more of my friends are talking about coming to visit...which I am very excited about!
Because I hadn't planned to be here for much longer than a year, I haven't put down any deep roots. Now it is time to start looking for a house, making friends, and start calling this place home.
I have to say Tucson is a beautiful place to live...the mountains are gorgeous...with sunsets like I have never seen before. The thunderstorms during the monsoon season are awesome. And the
restaurants and shopping aren't bad either.
I'm excited about the possibilities. I have figured out that everything in life happens for a reason...I am ready to find out the reason for my extended stay in Tucson!
