who can turn the world on with her smile?/who can take a nothing day & suddenly make it all seem worthwhile?

Yaay! Lily has started her very own blog here on the glamourous blogspot. Go to http://lilyblowstheboss.blogspot.com for a good time. (or just click on the subject line you lazy bastards)

Forgot to mention an early highlight of Thursday night- getting to hear lily's brother play!! Very kick-ass. A sort of Doves sound, I thought? But I tend to keep these things to myself because i'm sure she's reading this thinking- um. noooo... Anyway, it was really wonderful and i was sort of stressing the night to come, so it really blissed me out some. yaay JM+Pedro!

The Tony Awards? Not so much. I was glad that Cherry Jones won & of course, Norbert (who will always be Jamie to me). The musical bits were all pretty lame except for Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (again, Norbert) and the Spelling Bee bit, which was more comedy than musical. I think the Aretha/Hugh Jackman duet was a bit... painful? I was, however, incredibly touched by Edward Albee's acceptance (or the bit that they showed). Amazing that he was with his partner for 35 years. Between that & finding out that Ismael Merchant & James Ivory were life partners for 44 years, I'm sort of in awe. I can't even get anyone to notice me, much less start a relationship, so 35, 44 years seems like the most unattainable, unbelievable thing. Granted, right now I'm in a place where the last thing I want is a man in my life, but when I'm ready to try again... will that sorta guy even exist?
