Wickedness Never was Happiness???

Well, maybe, but from what I've been able to tell, 'Wicked' is sheer delight to the womenfolk in our home.

Cindy and I went to see this stage version of a 'chick flick' a week ago Thursday, and though it was quite enjoyable (despite the fact it stars a green-hued lass named 'Elphaba'--Elpheba???!!!) that was just the start.

Cindy now swoons every time she listens to the CD ("It's just like seeing it again!") and prefers it even to Regis and Kelly in the morning. The girls are enchanted too. And now I find myself unconsciously humming some of the songs.

Still, it does get me out of the obligatory annual 'chick-flick' DVD rental date night that all husbands endure. And if she wants to go see another show (she bought these for us (HA!) for a Christmas present) I can just pop in the CD and let her relive it!

Elphaba????!?!??!?!?

But if you don't do a chick flick, what WILL you do for date night??

Elphaba. Geek trivia...The name comes from the author of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, L. Frank Baum (LFaBa). I know, I know, your day is now complete.

We LOVED Wicked!!!!! I thought it was hilariously funny, and Scot, Seth & Heather enjoyed it just as much. Seth borrowed our CD of the music. I'm so glad you got to go. :)

Pop-u-larrrrr.. Hmmm hmmmmm.

Love,
