PANTS!!!

I love pants! For those of you who don't know who pants is.... it's AMANDA! She came in on Thursday (her birthday) to NY, and we had the best time! Jeff picked her up from the airport, and then they retrieved me from Carnegie Hall (just sang Mahler 2) with Lily (woof), and then we went to this crazy pub with lots of hoochies... but really good food and great '80s music. The next day we ran around with her friend Ben, saw David T. Little, and watched "Ugly Betty" with Stacia. All before going to Amanda's bday dinner at Bond 45 (yum!) in Times Square and then to see the brilliant David Hyde Pierce in "Curtains" (hilar!) with Jeff and Eldon. Then on Sunday afternoon we met Paul and Joel at NY City Opera to watch Heidi Stober in Handel's "Agrippina". Heidi was BRILLIANT with the best entrance I've seen in a while... in a bathtub! To Princeton we came that evening, at the Triumph we ate, had yummy ice cream (pumpkin) at Ricky's... then home to watch random movies as only she and I can! I miss her so much already.... :( It's amazing to me how whole you can feel when you're with someone who really knows and understands you!
