NYMTF..?

Now we're talking. The New York Musical Theatre Festival has arrived. I admit, I've never really heard of this before, outside of a few random mentions here and there, but this might just be the inspiration I've been looking for. There are some 45 musicals airing over the course of 3 weeks, all $20 a ticket. They have each show broken down by category, randing from the fluff, to the over-dramatic realistic dramas, to indie-rock scores, to just plain comedy. The best part, they are all musicals that have potential and raw scores. Shows that are particularly catching my interest are "Jason and Ben" and "College: The Musical." I highly reccomend you check it out. Not that anyone reads this, but I find it very interesting in all it's glory. Anyway...

Today kind of sucked. My foot swelled up like a balloon and it hurts like hell to move it. Walking is a task. I'm hoping i don't miss school tomorrow because I don't want to fall behind but I don't want to put too much stress on it either. Hopefully it'll be all better by thursday, which I'm sure it will be. I'm sure I'm going to be so confuzzled in math, even more so than I already am. *sigh* Oh well.

So last night, I applied for a job at CVS. I can make as little as $400 a month, or $100 a week and as much as like, $200 and something a week, I forget the specifics. This is, of course assuming I get the job. Which I hope I do. It will be easier for me to excersize and eat right if I don't have the time to want junk. Which by the way, I've decided that I'm joining weight watchers because I don't want any problems later in life, and I don't feel better every time I eat the food I like, so, why not. Besides, I like a lot of healthy foods too. I'm rather excited. I've also decided that, if I get this job, I'm going to put %60 of my check each week into the bank, which means I'll have as little as $40 in my pocket and as much $80, which is plenty on top of the birthday money I have. By the end of the month, I'll have quite a lot. This will work nicely because for 3 months after my surgery I won't be working obviously, so I'm going to need money to get through that. But I'm all for that actually.

I'm rather excited. I figured, I'll alternate between working on saturdays and fridays. Like, every other week I'll work friday, and the other I'll work saturday. The weeks I don't work saturdays I'll go see shows or something. Or I won't. That's the bright side of having money to spend. I don't have to spend it unless I want to. Also, with me [hopefully] losing weight, I'll feel better and stuffs.

I've also had a lot of time to think about the situation with Jen. If she gets the Heights ticket, I'm not going with her. I'd have to take a 4 o'clock train, which would prevent me from seeing a show. Which defeats the whole purpose. I don't want to inolve grandma agaaaain. I mean, If I don't go to the city with Jen, then I can maybe go to Brooklyn friday after school. I haven't been with Simon in a really, really long time, and I miss him :\ Plus, I'd be close enough where I could go to the city for the morning and head back if I really felt like it, or I could go see a show on saturday or whatever.

I also decided that if I get this job, I'm getting Matt and Jon spiffy christmas/birthday presents. I mean, I'll have the money so why not? They deserve it. They're really annoying and in my way and blah blah blah but they don't mean it. I think I'm going to get them Spamalot tickets. Yeah. and Mom or whoever can give me the money for their ticket or something. But only if I get my job , or I won't have the money to do such things. *sigh*

I'm leaving now, because I'm blabbing and that's the extent of my thought process for my day of uneventful-ness. Yah.

Bye now.
