So, here was the perfect opportunity to let the ball stay dropped. I haven't written in awhile and although I am sure I have lost all readers, maybe there are a few that have hung on, awaiting the brilliance out of my mind yet to come - well here it is!! Let me catch you up!! So, after Scranton we visited Newark, New Jersey, where we played for a week at the gorgeous facility NJPAC. Since we were so close to the city I stayed at my apartment, which was nice but gave me a two hour commute - ugh!! Needless to say I wasn't energized enough that week to post anything!! My lovely parents came up and saw the show and one of the highlights of their trip was going to Radio City Music Hall to see the Rockettes. My great good friend Julie Tomaino was in the show and offered to give us a backstage tour, where we had the distinct pleasure of kicking on the stage!!
It was wonderful!! Well, I was able to spend Christmas day with my family in Virginia, before joining the tour again in Norfolk on the 26th. My father enjoyed his gift to all of us . . . it was rather amusing!!
So, Christmas day I had a problem with my laptop. Those who have a laptop know that your power cord has a sort of surge protector along with it. Well, that afternoon my power cord started sizzling and eventually smoking so that is was then useless. Well, I haven't been able to power my computer since then - until today!! The part requires special ordering and I just got it today!! YAY!! One more little woe . . . I was going to see a movie in Norfolk (Dreamgirls - it was AMAZING!) when my check card wouldn't give me money. Odd. I checked my account later that night and to my horror, someone had charged $2,200.00 to my check card (must have been online) and wiped me out!! I have also spoken to several other people who say a similar thing happened to them - watch your accounts folks - it sucks!! Now, thankfully, everything is back in working order. We are currently in Fayetteville, Arkansas - our furthest point west so far. Nothing to report here and we are here for a week!! My resolution is to stay better in touch with people - how am I doing? Ugh, anyway, until next time . . . !

Hey, I'd like a shirt that says,
"Bob's Long Lost Son"
I really get scared when I hear things like that about people's cards. It scares the beejesus out of me. Haven't stopped reading your blog. And thanks for the comment on mine.
Happy New Year Chris!
