Useless Ranting
I'm in a shitty mood, rather inexplicably.
The weekend wore me out. Really--it was great, everything went smoothly with both wedding-related parties I attended--but Sunday just put me over the edge. Essentially, eight hours total of travel for a four hour party. My own planning, I know, but I wouldn't do that again. Clinched by the two hour wait in the Newark train station, since apparently if you buy the $111 ticket from Newark to DC as opposed to the $140 Acela ticket, they have every right to inform you that your train is delayed 2 hours and fifteen minutes and you CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. Unless you are me, who decides that a livid white girl screaming and cursing about the failure of the Sherman Laws and the supposed anti-trust rulings when it comes to Amtrak and the general state of rail travel in this country is going to be a high priority in Newark, New Jersey, a city with considerably bigger fish to fry. Seriously though, stupid white girl or no stupid white girl, it is outrageous.
Blahty-blahty-blah. I'll get over it, the mood will pass, the rest of the week will be better, I'm sure.
I'm also having a "must-get-up-to-NY-before-september" urge. Is there any way to get cheaper than $50-odd tickets for EURYDICE? Anyone know? Is it still selling out?
Ah! And I got my passport yesterday. Not that I need that to get up to NY. But, you know, sigh of relief and all.

TDF has it for $24. Let me know if you want help with the logistics--always glad to help a fellow blogger.
Mark--do you mean join TDF and then use the membership for the discount? I guess that would pay off in the end... You do have to join to get the discount though, right?
Yeah, it's only like 22 bucks or something to join and that pays for itself in no time if you like off-Broadway plays. Or I can just buy them for you with mine.
