Man of La Mancha, the Afterparty, and other Weekend Happenings
Wes was in Man of La Mancha this weekend, and Steve and I were able to see it yesterday. Wes played the priest, and one of the muleteers. He did well in both parts. I recorded a clip of part of one of his songs (to make my 1-second clip for the day) and thought I'd post it here for you to see how well he did:
After the show was over, Wes met us in the lobby, and said, "So, where is the after party?"
I invited him and Geoff over to our house. What followed, was something that I can only describe as The Introvert's After Party Dream Come True:
Three introverts, on their laptops, not talking to each other. They loved it. (And, yes, that is MY laptop on the couch, because I was on mine too, before getting up to take the picture).
Good times were had by all.
Otherwise, this weekend I have spent all of my time listing to the unabridged audiobook, "The Brothers Karamazov" and quilting. Here's what I've been working on:
Pillowcases:
| This one is to match "Frith" |
| This one is to match Kjersti's quilt, "Sparkle Magic" |
Blocks:
| This is for the Quilt Guild, it is a disappearing 9-patch. This is for a service quilt that will be donated to a person in need. |
| This is for a Quilt-Bee that I'm in. We each get a month to choose a quilt, (my month is April) and we each make 2 blocks for the quilt that month. These are two block's for Tina's quilt. |
Ummm, so how CUTE are these?
Also, Friday was sunny and a piping-hot 40ish degrees, so I was able to get in my first outdoor run of the year! 20 minutes running--not too shabby as there was quite a sabbatical in between my last outside run and this one! Here's to hoping that the weather will start cooperating more often!
Cheers.

Loved the clip of Wesley's song. Wish I could hear him sing more often. I claim to be an introvert, but The Introvert's Party definitely looks boring, even to me! I love your pillowcases, especially the Sparkle Magic ones! When you sent me the picture on my phone, I couldn't see how gorgeous the rainbows of color were on the edges! Make some of those for me, please! I also really like the quilt blocks that are your guild's works in progress. So pretty! Your bird house quilt is going to be great!
I wish I could have seen Wesley's play too! Thanks for the clip Allie! I miss you guys all so much!
