How proud he would’ve been of all of this, of all of us.

We do this show with love for this giant in the sky. Sigh, you will be forever missed.

In the last few moments of quiet before the show officially began, while I was waiting backstage to make my first entrance as The Witch, I took a couple of seconds to look up to the heavens and whisper, β€œThis is for you, Bobby.”

Yesterday was a whirlwind… our first audience, our tech period officially over, last minute things we needed to either put in or refine. Some details are still in the process of refinement today and will probably continue on for a few days more.

This might have to be my go-to movie for whenever I feel the darkness in my soul taking over the light. And heaven knows we always need light. /end

I went into the movie wanting to feel hopeful in a world that seems to be growing increasingly cynical, and I got what I needed in the moment: a powerful alien superhero who’s kind and empathetic, and seeing the billionaire bad guy get his comeuppance.

- The KILIG with the chemistry of David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan! Grabbed my friend’s arm not just once!
- Nicholas Hoult. Nothing two-dimensional about his Lex Luthor.
- I want an album by The Mighty Crabjoys.
- The echoing and rhyming this movie is doing…
- Yes to breakfast for dinner!

- Wait, that was BRADLEY COOPER???
- Why is the dog not obeying Superman? (And he stole all the scenes)
- Who designed Nathan Fillion’s wig? It was PERFECT!
- Mr. Terrific lives up to his name in all the ways!

My girl friends and I scheduled dinner and a movie for after rehearsals last night. The flick we chose: Superman.

My takeaways (possible spoilers… if you haven’t yet seen it, skip this next part):

Just because I was curious, I thought to start my morning by looking for other Asians that have received their stars on the H’Wood Walk of Fame. I don’t think this is by any means the complete list, but it’s a good one nonetheless! www.prestigeonline.com/sg/lifestyle...

It’s always a great day when you find something you think you’ve lost. That said, it’s best when you have an electronic tag attached to it.

Damn this allergy season… besides the antihistamine, there’s bone broth, raw garlic, and a serving of greens (all that just in one meal). How have you all been able to deal with the upped pollen count this spring? Leave suggestions in the comments below!

After today’s two-show extravaganza, we’ll have just eight more performances of Old Friends in LA before we pack up and bring the show to Broadway! Woot!

Sigh, lost my beloved BT21 Tata AirTag holder over a week ago. Tracked it to an address in Palmdale, so I guess it’s gone for good. Ah well.

Somebody crowd me with love,
Somebody force me to care,
Somebody let me come through,
I’ll always be there as frightened as you,
To help us survive
Being alive!

These lyrics take on different meanings and resonances now, what with so much going on in the USA. We shall be singing it with chests out!
