Fun Monday night

Today, I woke up at 2 PM.

Cleaned my house, got ready for rehearsal and arrived on time at 430 PM. Should have been there earlier but that didn't happen.

Rehearsed one of my favorite pieces EVER called "La Vela".

Luckily, the rehearsal went well, and Tamara, one of our captains, offered me the glorious chance to perform the piece in the show that night.

The piece could have lasted so much longer, I had a BLAST!!! I performed the piece with Freddy Bosche, and the crew below was TA, Wes, Johnny and Tincho. It felt so right, every section, I felt so honored to perform this piece tonight, YAY!

My friends Johnny O and Coco were in the audience with friends. That helped a lot too!

Afterwards, a group of us went to one of my favorite restaurant's in NYC, La Creperie, on 8th St. between 1st and A. We were headed for Yaffa Cafe, but the wait was too long. By total chance we ended up at the French place. They were about to close, but when they saw 8 of us walk in , they stayed open for another 2 hours and treated us with excellent food and service.

We went to another place on 8th/St. Marks...65 St. Mark's? Can't remember the name. The lovely Veronica just happen to cross paths with us and hung out a bit.

From there, we went swing dancing at Banjo Jim's on Ave C and 9th St. I saw some of the best tap dancing I'd seen in the longest time. Gwyn and I were inspired. Ramona Staffeld was there too. She was actually the reason why were there. What a blast! Swing, lindsay hopping, drinks and all...we were game!

Party on the move...headed down to the Lower East Side to another bar called Milano's to hear Duran Duran, David Bowie, James and Blur on the jukebox. Danced however we felt like: I'm not exactly sure what to call it. Only 4 of us were in the bar. Because Kate was a regular, drinks and chips were on the house.

Oh what a night!
