Baaaaaby....

My niece has a name. Evangeline Jane. She is beautiful, naturally.

I'm fairly certain I had other interesting things with which to regal you all, but I can't remember what it is.

Oh, I know...Did I mention I am going to New York this Sunday to see Patrick Stewart in Macbeth? 'Cause I am! I am very excited. Patrick Stewart! As Macbeth! Can it get better?

Well, Patrick Stewart as Claudius and David Tennant as Hamlet would be pretty fraking awesome, but I don't think that is going to happen any time soon. Sigh.

So. Yay for Macbeth. I said we ought to stand by the stage door and hand Patrick Stewart a poster for OUR play. Just for fun.

I am excited for the next Doctor Who. Agatha Christie. I remember reading somewhere that she actually tried to have her husband killed by framing him for her own murder, but I don't know if that's true, or an urban legend.

Yes, I'm rambling now. I'm tired. the downstairs neighbors had some sort of flaming row at 3am and woke me up. It was scary. Downside of not having a house.

Anyway...have a nice weekend everyone.

OMG I AM SO JEALOUS.

When I found out Patrick Stewart was in MacBeth I nearly died. I wish I could go! If you don't stand by the stage door to meet him, I will never forgive you. Make it so!

Hee...Make it so...I'm gonna try, but my friends are less fangirly than I, so I don't know.

Do it! When I went to see Geraint Wyn Davies in My Fair Lady, the person I was with really didn't want to go to the stage door afterwards, so I went on my own, and I am so happy I did. He was super nice (and I think relieved that I didn't mention Forever Knight--I was the only one!).

OMG Geraint Wyn Davies! I love him! Fantastic actor. And FK was awesome. Oh, I just looked at your icon...drooooool...

[chavvah.livejournal.com]

He was super nice! Oh wait, I said that already. Well, it bears saying again.

Check it out! (He is very red, but he did just come off the stage, and it was sweltering that night. Also my dress is hideous. Sorry.)



Here are some much better pics from the show's program:

Not a REALLY hidious dress. Pretty color, anyway.

I hope he continues to be an active actor in Canada. He was so good. So was wossname, the guy who was La Croix.

[chavvah.livejournal.com]

That dress could really have used like a belt or something. Man.

I wish GWD were more active than he is. For a while he was doing well--I miss Black Harbour, which I don't know if you got in the U.S. Even after he left the show I kept watching it! I don't really know where he is now. I think he pretty much only does theatre. I think Nigel Bennett (LaCroix) is the same.

One day when I visit you (or you me) we will have to watch some Forever Knight together! :)

[slammerkinbabe.livejournal.com]

Aww, I like the picture of you and him! You're right, the dress isn't great, but you pull it off shockingly well -- I wouldn't have thought "oh, that's a lousy dress" unless you'd mentioned it, because you wear it well.

[chavvah.livejournal.com]

Well, it's also poorly accessorized--I mean, the digital watch and messenger bag... clearly I am two-thirds of the way to becoming a butch lesbian myself! ;)

Well, you need to find a proper dildoe first. (I hear stuffing a stocking with rolls of coins works well, both in terms of flaunting your stuff and for sex play.*)

*He really said this and I was like WHAT OMG DID YOU SERIOUSLY SUGGEST THAT GIRLS SHOULD GET INTO PENETRATIVE SEX PLAY WITH COIN-FILLED STOCKINGS WTF

[chavvah.livejournal.com]

You'd better be careful when talking of coins without specifying denomination. We have some big ol' coins up in these parts. I could kill someone.

Maybe the change will do them good?

[charliesmum.livejournal.com]

You are making me laugh SO hard right now...

Seconding what chavvah says. I love stage dooring and when my companions don't want to stage-door, well, I'll see them back at the hotel later. The only exception is if it's late and no one I really care about is in the show. But someone like Patrick Stewart -- especially in a show where he's got a Tony nom? STAGE TO THE M'F-IN' DOOR.

Amen to that sista! I met Alan Rickman at the stage door.
