Are you ready to see a $700 cake?

Skippy is finishing it up now, pictures tonight!

Could it be more perfect?

I'm on my way to the airport to go home and it's snowing!!! I don't think I've ever seen snow in New York City before. Especially as we are currently driving through Central Park!

Happy Anniversary!

Today is my Mom and Stepdad's 27th (?) wedding anniversary! Congrats!

Fantasia has her own sign!

Fantasia stars in The Color Purple starting next week. Here is her billboard in Times Square. I don't get the red dress though. Shouldn't it be umm I don't know.....purple?

I didn't want it to end...

I just finished seeing Prelude to a Kiss. I literally did not want it to end it was so good. I wouldn't be suprised if all three leads got Tony nominations for best Actor/Actor/Actress. Of course I was just about the youngest person there but no matter, it was amazing. I might actually see it again in two weeks when I'm back. It would have been just as great without it, but Alan kept dressing and undressing throughout the show! Luckily I was 4th row center so I could study his um acting technique.

What was actually more distracting was that the female lead acted, looked and sounded like my friend Chrissy. And that's a good thing.

John Mahoney (Dad on Frasier) was sublime. He played a guy playing a girl then playing a guy. It wasn't confusing in the slightest and he just made you want to stop your very heartbeat so you wouldn't miss an iota of his performance.

What?

You can't see Matt Lauer back there interviewing some cook?

The Early Show

CBS's The Early Show is filmed right next to The Apple Store and Central Park.

Mecca

The Apple store across the street from Central Park.

Like, omigod!!!

Have you ever heard the song "My Humps" by the Black Eyed Peas? If not, watch this video first...



AFTER you hear the song, listen to Alanis Morisette's remake. It is hilarious!

Aoki

I'm eating Dinner at Aoki in Times Square before I see Forbidden Broadway later tonight. And Skip is getting us tickets to the world premiere of The Little Mermaid The Musical as we speak!

This hotel!

Let me tell you about this hotel.

There is a motion-activated night light in my room. The lights on either side of the bed have a reading mode which is basically a spotlight.

The 8,000 foot gym opens at 5:30 am. Guess where I'll be at 5:30 am?

The gym has trainers to do personal yoga/pilates sessions in your room! There is no price listed next to these services however. Don't worry, I learned my lesson on that one.

The bed is actually a good one. It may not seem like a big deal when you get to sleep in your comfy bed most nights but most of MY nights I am sleeping in a bed that is way too hard with weird pillows.

I like this hotel. And I'll be here three weeks this month!

Thanks, Google!

Here is how Google wants me to get to work this morning. Too bad it doesn't know I'm walking!

And I'm off...

Time to go to NYC! I poked around the web this morning to see if anything interesting was happening in Manhattan this week. The best I could come up with is Joey MacIntyre (New Kids on the Block) doing a concert.

As tempting as that is, I think I'll see Prelude to a Kiss instead. I've always had a crush on Alan Tudyk (ever since Firefly anyways) and other than that I'll see what's up at the 1/2 price ticket booth.

Did anyone else have trouble with Daylight Savings Time this morning? Our alarm clock and Blackberry Pearls got me up an hour earlier than normal, at least the computers had the right time...
