Back the beautiful Italian Sandwich Shop!:)

Today was a fun day!  I took Vernon's ballet class - and because we were existing in some bizarre parallel universe - he likes my arabesque.  I personally feel my arabesque is one of the uglier things I do in dance, but every time I did one he just burst out into this elation of GOOD VERY GOOD THAT'S IT BEAUTIFUL.  It was the perfect class to get me ready for my CAROUSEL CALLBACK!

I made it through two dance calls, a singing call, and a reading call! There are five girls left - and I'm one of them - we'll find out April 3.  Soooooooooooooooooooooo fingers crossed - send all your happy thoughts my way - CAROUSEL CAROUSEL CAROUSEL!  GAH!  I want to do the show so badly, it's a perfect show for me, I love the show, I think she show has a great message/messages that I want to tell, and hey - Time magazine named it the best musical of the century - so that's pretty cool - is it not?  I LOVE IT and I want to be in it - and I'm ready to be in it in every sense of the word ready - and I'm GOING to be in it - so there!  Send your happy thoughts and good karma!  (And I send you my thanks in advance!)

Then I had lunch with Mattiller.  

Then I took Jana's - got dinner at the sandwich shop full of beautiful Italian men who made me a ham, tellaggio, and roasted red pepper sandwich of deliciousness - and went to work - where I sand the little mermaid- and everyone came in to watch - which was weird - as I was holding a floor buffing machine - but it made me feel good.  Apparently I have a mermaid audience at steps!  HAHAHAHA!  Now ----- if only I could convince Disney....

Tomorrow I'm audition for the role of Octavia in a new show called Cleopatra.  That is exciting!  I'm going to sing PART OF YOUR WORLD because they want a CONTEMPORARY musical theatre song - so none of my Rogers and Hammerstein material will be - and they want a sweet soprano - and that is kind of the epitome of sweet soprano - especially in my non-belting style.

It is also my friend Francesco's birthday - so all the cool people from steps are journeying out to queens to celebrate the glory that is Francesco.  (And he is glorious!)  

So hopefully tomorrow will be super fun as well!

Keep your fingers crossed for Carousel!  

(Cue Carousel overture music here!)

PS  _ I also have to say - I'm incredibly surprised, shocked, amazed, and touched by the number of people who sent me well wishes for my Carousel audition!  Ballet teachers I didnt know knew my name, friends, little old ladies at the dance studio, Reinking, it was just so cool.  I love everyone!:)  THANK YOU THANK YOU THAN YOU for all your good thoughts! Let's see this through to contract signing!:)  WAHAY WOOHOO WAHAY!:)
