As fleeting as a shadow during an eclips

Before I went to class yesterday, I stopped by the house of the kids I babysit, to ask their mom if she wanted to go to The Phantom Of The Opera. She was really excited; telling me that she was going to ask her husband, how she's wanted to see this for ages, how exciting it is to go to NY and Times Square (I guess most of the theaters are right next to there *nods* )


I told her whenever I got back, I'd come by and give her the paper that had the address of the theater and stuff on it.


But, you know, I was really glad that they were going to somone that would appreciate them. =D


...And I might get a babysitting job out of this.

...


...What?


<.<;;;

*cough*


Talking to the NY aunt last night, I found she really did have a computer problem, with her internet. She called her ISP, and they were telling her to describe and look at stuff, and she wasnt sure what was what, and so she really did want me to help, when she asked my uncle if I could. So I offered to sneak over and help her fix it.


And so I did.


I got back to...you know, I'm going to call Summer's mom by her real name (Kathy), so even I dont get confused in telling the story. Oddly, I dont really call her...anything. My cousin's clique calls her "aunty", to tease her, but they are 4-5 years younger than me, and she's only 26, only 6 years older than me.


...


It's strange, to think she isnt that much older than me, but has a completely different life. She was married at 18; has 6 kids now, and might end up with 2 more in April, maybe permanently, making her total 8. All will be under the age of 7.


X_+


But yes! I made it to her house, after my aunt's house. She told me she asked her husband, if he wanted to go to a Broadway show, and he was saying about why would he wanna go to a Broadway show; if the tickets came from me and the both of us wanted to go, why dont we both go together, and I just tell my uncle I'm babysitting?


Aleia: 0.0!


Me, being dressed in gym clothes, ran over to the house, quick shower, brushed hair, dressy clothes, stuffed gym clothes in backpack, so whenever I get back I could change into those at their house, in case my uncle would be awake when I got in.


My aunt was down in the basement, doing laundry. My uncle was in the basement, in his office. All the kids cept one was in the kitchen, watching TV. I yelled down the stairs that I was babysitting, and ran out the door.


We got there in time for...intermission.


u.u


The college paper thingamajiger said the show started at 8pm, when it really started at 7.


The usher explained "Yeah, most shows start at 8, but on Tuesdays, they start at 7."


Goodness goodness. How come I didnt know that? *raises eyebrow*


I am so glad that I even got to catch the second half of the show. I was caught up in the....music, the beautiful singing, the extremely detailed-ness of the background, the light effects...


*grins* It all reminded me how much fun I had in highschool, when chorus was pulling off the musical of The Kind and I.


*grins and sighs*


The Playbill, it talks about this new show coming out...tomorow, actually. It's called Spamalot, and it has to do with Monty Python.

I was reading that, and I was so excited that I let out a little squeal. I wanna go see that, before I leave here.


*grins happily*


Good stuff, good stuff.


After everything ended, we walked around in Times Square, trying to find the PATH train station.


We eventually did, ect ect, got back to her house at 11, changed into gym clothes, got home, everyone asleep, ate a salad and went to bed.


Woke up, and my uncle asked me when I got home. I told him 10:30-11 ish, and he said about how he was up at 10:30, and I most certainly wasnt here. He asked me if Summer's parents always stay out that late, and I explained that they stay out till whenever; that once I babysat till a bit after 12. He made a funny sound and left. I noticed he was very well dressed, and later my aunt explained that he's in a bad mood this morning, because of court stuffs.

;;;


My aunt called my mom, before I went to class today, and my mom said about how a certain somone had a heart attack the other day.


Honestly, it's like his third one. How come he isnt dead yet? >:O


...


=X;;


<.<;;;


I mean to say, what exactly is keeping him here?

...

Yeah.


Funny thing, about me not doing the homework yesterday. Turns out around 3/4 of the class didnt either. The teacher was angry, of course, but she gave an extension for the class, with a bit of a grade reduction when we turn it in. Plus more homework due for Thursday, but oh well. So yeah. That was...just too weird. o.o


I'm still all mixed up inside, and a little hurt too, because I think I am the only one with any problem, out of the group of people that are involved. =\
