NaNoWriMo: Days 14-17
Nov. 17th, 2006 11:36 pmWay behind. Must write a lot tomorrow. Milwaukee/Waukesha is competing against Wisconsin: Elsewhere, Madison, and California: Santa Monica to see which group gets the greatest word count per participant from today to 6pm to tomorrow at 6pm -- gotta help out my home region with a good word count tomorrow ;)
In other news, I watched a boot of the OBC(/OLC) of PotO tonight (April 1988!) and it was QUITE excellent. Not the video quality, as you can imagine (though it was certainly decent!), but that trio is pretty awesome. Sarah Brightman was not my favorite, I still don't care for her voice and her acting is nothing special, but I think her ranking as Christine has definately went up for me. Michael Crawford might just be fighting from... it's 4th place he's in now in my favorite's rankings? to third. His Phantom continues to amaze me the more I hear of him, completely pwning the less-than-stellar (IMHO) OLCR. Steve Barton is my new favorite Raoul (replacing the amazing Idon'thaveafavorite). Josh Groban would be my favorite if he actually went and played the role. I know he's gotta focus on his music career right now, it'd be stupid not to... but I almost wish it'd come to an end so he could do some theatre already. Preferably Raoul. Preferably where I can see him play it. (Certainly cheaper ticket prices than his concerts... XD)
I didn't mean that. Keep being successful, Josh. Your performance on Jay Leno was a great improvement from some of your more recent TV appearances. I want your CD. Now.
I'm just saying, if you sing All I Ask of You somewhere where I can buy or get a bootleg of it I might start finding the song interesting. And, you'd get to beat out Steve Barton, assuming you didn't make a total mess of the role (and considering the messes made of it in the past, that'd be rather difficult, I'd say), wouldn't that be nice? Yes.
Ideal Word Count: 28334
Word Count: 14957
