Happy Lists











Naomi at Rockstar Diaries has been keeping happy lists forever. And has inspired me to do the same. Ladies and Gentlemen, I present:
1o things that make Addy terribly happy:
1. Friendly people. The ones in line behind you at the grocery store who tell you how cute you look.
2. Rainy days.
3. Waking up happy.
4. Del Taco - preferably at about 11:30 at night.
5. Ballet
6. nevershoutnever!
7. Pictures and quotes.
8. Laughing when you probably shouldn't. Like when someone trips and falls, or when someone is giving a speech during history class.
9. Getting up really really late.
10. Running into someone you love very much, but haven't seen for a very long time.
Also: Something I want to do:
The free hugs thing. I am trying to talk Kate into doing it with me. I think it would be a blast. Cause hugs make me terribly happy. [:

My New Obsession


I've heard him before.
And ohmygosh he's excellent.
With witty lyrics, stunning voice, plays an amazing guitar, serious ukelele.
oh, 'n plus he's super super hott. [:
He just released his first full album, What is Love?
But anyway, I fell in love with on of his songs - "She's Got Style" - and kinda forgot about him.
Well, until Kat wrote the lyrics to "Happy" on the outside of one of her notes to me.
And as of this morning,
I am obsessed with Christofer Drew Ingle.
The 19 year old vegan teenage boy from Missouri who makes incredible music under the name Nevershoutnever.

And I love him.

What if it ends today?

What if it ends today?
Here is my challenge to you.
And I will do the same.
Today, tommorow, sometime within the next three days after you read this,
I want you to do three things:
1.) Tell your family you love them.
Call them, write them notes, send them letters, write them a big note and hang it on the fridge.
But tell them you love them.
2.) Tell your friends you love them.
To your best friends, write them notes, give them a call.
To those that have made you smile even just once, next time you see them,
tell them you love them.
Just say it.
3.) Think of one person that you love a lot.
Someone that has made a real difference in your life,
someone outside of your immediate family,
or your close friends,
someone who may or may not know it,
and tell them thank you.
Tell them you love them.
Call them up, track them down, write them a letter, drive to their house.
But make a big deal about it.
Because they deserve it.
Because what if it ends today?
Wouldn't you want them to know?
Because for me, Valentines day is not about two people falling in love and going to overpriced fancy resturants for dates that no one will remember after the next couple of years.
For me, Valentines is about love.
Loving the people who have
made a difference,
made you smile,
made you you.
Celebrate.
So comment, post, call me, write me, and tell me how your day goes.
Tell me about the challenges, tell me about the people that you love.
I want to hear about it.
a very happy valentines.
to you,
love,
me.

They casted that musical, and I went to the mall.

(A shot of my shoes at the Lady Gaga Party. Many more of these excellent pictures to come.)

And i am playing the part of Podipher's wife.
I am ECSTATIC.
She has so much attitude, excellent costuming, and well... she's a bit of a slut.
This was not, in any way, shape or form, typecasting. [:

Also, today, I learned something horrifying at the mall.
It's called,
Idon'tfunctionwellwhenIaminanyotherstoreotherthanNordstrom.
Does anyone else do that?

Anyway, I am so excited about our musical, and it will turn out amazing.
We have some amazing talent, and we can't wait to get started.
(Rehearsals start Monday. That means I say goodbye to my life until the show closes.)
(Goodbye, life.)
I hope you will all come and support us!!
(Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, April 27 through May 1.)
