Excitement!!!!!!!!

Oh my god, I have to just be a twittering fangirl for one minute---So I was looking at a London theatre guide online, just idly skimming and fantasizing about a time in the vague future when I can make it down to that lovely town, when to my utter delight I saw that Hamlet is going to be playing next summer. "Ah, perfect!" I thought. "My very favorite Shakespeare play! I wonder if anyone I know is in it?" So I went to the page and *OMG* Kenneth Branagh is directing (which would have been enough by itself) and JUDE LAW is Hamlet!!!!! Squeeeee!!!!!! Ok, done now. Actually, Judi Dench will be doing a show in London next summer too, as well as the opening of "Gone With the Wind: The Musical." Oh yeah, you know you all want to visit.

If you are still over there in Spring 09, I fully intend to come visit. Fully. Intend.

Come one, come all! If I'm still here in Spring 09, hopefully I'll even be living in a truly cute Scottish flat for you to stay in, i.e. one that doesn't look like a room in St Andrews Best Western. Hey, are you still planning on going to France next summer?

Next Spring, yep! I was this [finger and thumb millimeter apart] close to calling and buying the plane tickets we had on reserve yesterday, but my friend called and asked me to hold off until she found out if she had an interview the weekend we'd be flying back. So I'm not counting my little french chickens until I have an actual plane ticket purchased to go see them be hatched, but that's the plan!

Then... onto backpacking around England and Scotland with a prolonged stay at el casa de megan!

We wants to go...now if only we had the little, green slips of paper everyone wants to take from us...If we had them we would throw them down on the airline counter and laugh like a giddy-type person and ask for a one-way ticket.

You wouldn't mind if in the lovely, green, world of perfection, I never left, right?
