The Secret Garden

The first CD I ever owned (I received it as a birthday gift back in the early 90's, I didn't even own a CD player yet), was the original cast album of The Secret Garden.  It is a gorgeous musical, packed with emotion and wonderful songs, great story.

I've always wanted to do the show - I think most people involved in musical theater would - and now I have been cast in a production that will bow this May for a six week run.  I didn't get a principal role, or even a supporting role...I was cast in a "cameo" role, someone named William (who isn't even listed in the character breakdown).  But that's okay.  It's for a very good company here in town, and they always put on a good show.  Rehearsals start week after next.

Today I took delivery of my new partials.  Upper and lower.

I hate them already.  The entire roof of my mouth is covered in metal when I wear them, and wearing the partials triggers my gag reflex (pesky).  They also make me talk funny.  I don't mind the bottom part too much, its really just the uppers that suck!  Oh well.  By the way...is this too much information?

Miles is good.  Still has a lot of puppy destructive behaviors...that will go away (but probably not for years).  He's adorable and cuddly.

That's the news for today.  Hope you are having a wonderful week.
