Wicked!

My mom is currently making Kraft mac n cheese for 3 of her 4 adult children at one in the morning because we are too lazy to do it. That, my friends, is a good mother. 

My mom, brother, sister, brother-in-law and I went and saw the musical Wicked tonight at the Orpheum in San Francisco. For those of you living under a rock it's loosely based on the Gregory Maguire novel of the same name which, by the way, is amazing. 

It's the story of how Elphaba became the Wicked Witch of the West and of her friendship with Galinda, later known as Glinda the Good Witch. The lady who played Elphaba had the most amazing voice but the actress playing Glinda stole the show, especially while portraying Galinda. She was hilarious. Oh, and Fiyero was hot! 

Another interesting experience today was taking the BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit). It is inexpensive access right into the city but if planning on taking the BART one should really pack a gas mask. That thing had some incredibly stale air where the smells of body odor and sweat linger.
