I have listened to "Electricity" from Billy Elliot so many times in the past day. I like it a lot. I think that's the play I'd like to see when we go to NYC in the fall, though Next to Normal would be awesome, too. I'd be pleased with either.
The reason I'm posting this, though, is a meme that I saw Mr. McCartney do. I liked the idea, it's not dumb like a lot of the other ones I see around.
"The challenge is simple - write 3-5 things that make you laugh and 3-5 times you feel brimming over with life."
Things that make me laugh:
-Frezned
-People falling down/making an ass of themselves, but not getting hurt or seriously embarrassing themselves.
-Hiro Nakamura, from Heroes
Times I feel brimming over with life:
(by the way, this is my absolute favorite feeling in the world)
-When I see a really fantastic play, or read a really fantastic book, or watch a really fantastic movie, or just see something wonderful (like I'm in some new and exciting place) and I think; "I absolutely have to share this with someone, I feel like this is why I am alive, I want to be a better person, etc."
-When a person I respect a lot gives me a sincere compliment.
-When I get a letter.
-When a concept I've learned just clicks, and I get that "ohhh, I understand!" feeling. Especially if it's something that I've been struggling with for a long time, like in math. Also just the general feeling of learning awesome things or talking about ideas and really getting new understandings and making connections.
-When I finish an Ace Attorney game. I'm serious.
