Wicked!!



Saturday night William took me to San Francisco to see the musical Wicked. It was so wonderful. The performers were so good! I loved the singing!!!(I've been singing the songs in my head ever since) The theater, the Orphium, was amazing inside...the detail in the whole building - I could have sat there and looked at that all night.

Wicked. I thought it was a perfect story. You think something is...but is it? The wicked witch is only wicked because someone called her wicked apparently. But who was the truly wicked one? if there was one...the Wizard maybe? the professor or the witches Mom. Can you even call anyone wicked really ? Wicked is intentionally causing someone elses pain(right?). Yes, some of the characters are flawed and out for themselves...but wicked? I don't know about that. I was wondering why the dad wasnt asking any questions.. I did love how the story is woven in to the original movie. It explained alot.


It was really nice to have a night out in the city with my man..
and we didn't have kids to rush home to..they are spending the week in Sac being spoiled, no doubt, by the grandparents. Our hotel was only 4 blocks from the theater but there was a bart on our block and one was across the street from the theater so it was perfect... we would have had to walk farther if we driven the 4 blocks and parked the car somewhere.
We stayed out late. After the show we went back to the hotel. There is a sky-bar on the top floor. We went up and had a few beverages. Our room was on floor 32 and the bar is 39 so we had a nice view all weekend(no fog at all).
-cant wait to go back...I hope we plan another get away like this.
