I'm taking my mom to the ballet tonight!

Other than Alvin Ailey's dance company (which is cool modern dance stuff) I've never been to the ballet. But this year for mother's day I got my mom tix for me to take her to see this russian ballet troupe, Eifmann, do a ballet version of Anna Karennina. Think it'll be any good? I'm so tired already I hope I don't fall asleep then.

Anna Karrenia is a long book. Hopefully it translates into a much shorter dance. You should go take your mom to see "Wicked" if you get the chance. She'll love it.

Man, not to sound too corny...
But I my mom. She's fuckin rules. Unlike with my dad, who is all business and cold, I can talk to my mom about ANYTHING except drugs. We can talk about life and beliefs and feelings as if we were friends and it's great. The older I get and the older she gets the more appreciate how much she made me who I am.

You should give her acid before you go. J/K

Yeah I love my mom too. We are just very different. I was serious about the ice cream thing though, I'm sure she would like that I have always wondered what it would be like to trip out with my parents.........

I think Wicked is one of my favorite books. I saw the play on Broadway in August. It still had Idina Menendez and that Joey McIntyre () in it.

Usually before family events I get stoned cause it helps me deal better...but tonight I'm going to pick her up outside the theater, take her to dinner at La Bonne Soupe and spend a nice sober evening with her. I'm excited.

Sound like a fun night. The ballet is amazing. just go in with an open mind, and if you have any appreciation for the arts, you'll love it!
