Wow, thanks for all the positive feedback, everyone! I love it, I was totally expecting mixed responses. :D
Enjoy this next song and let me know what you thought. The story about Adam and Anthony you requested is at the end of the chapter.
REVIEW!
FANGIRL:
Hey, tomorrow night we're seeing RENT! Can you believe it?
OTHER FANGIRL:
Oh yeah… But I've already seen it so many times that I used my ticket stubs to wallpaper my three bedroom house.
(RENT… RENT… RENT…)
FANGIRL:
Do you think… oh my god, what if we MEET them?
OTHER FANGIRL:
Probably not. But I've already met them enough times that they know my name, first and last… I mean, they put it down IN INK on that restraining order! Oh well, it'll be fun either way.
FANGIRL:
I'm sure I'll love it. So… what are you wearing to the show?
OTHER FANGIRL:
I haven't decided, seeing as I've seen it so many times that I've exhausted all of the possible outfits in my closet. It's so frustrating! I mean, what if Adam notices? He might say, "What the hell, you stupid bitch? You wore that same shirt the 6784th time you stalked us out of the theater! I am so not signing your playbill, you disgust me!"
FANGIRL:
I'm sure you're overreacting.
OTHER FANGIRL:
I'm not overreacting.
FANGIRL:
(shrugs) Just saying. Ok, well I got it.
OTHER FANGIRL:
You decided what to wear? That was quick!
FANGIRL:
I'm wearing my plaid pants. Obviously.
OTHER FANGIRL:
Predictable.
FANGIRL:
What?
OTHER FANGIRL:
I've spent the last few years of my life following this musical and I'm seeing it again this week. Another reason I'm freaking out… we'll go to the show, you for your first time, and I guarantee you, that lots of plaid pants will be out in the audience. Don't get me wrong, I've done it, and it was the best thing I've ever done, and the 5346th time I met Adam, he said he liked my pants… so it was worth it. But those pants can be a hit or miss, believe me. I will have seen RENT 525600 times by the time I'm thirty, and I will have seen too much plaid in pants form.
FANGIRL:
I know that the plaid pants aren't new. But I love them! It's not my fault! It's hard for people born after 1996 to come up with new RENThead ideas. Especially now that RENT's not even on Broadway! There's no time to sit around and be creative. And plus, Adam makes them look so damn good, I have to imitate him!
OTHER FANGIRL:
Whatever. Do whatever you want. If Adam throws up all over you because he's seen one too many pairs of plaid pants, don't blame me.
FANGIRL:
Is that really what you think?
OTHER FANGIRL:
Sure. But it's up to you. It's your first time, do what you want.
FANGIRL:
Are you really seeing RENT for the 8956th time?
OTHER FANGIRL:
8957th, actually, I always thought that by the 8950th time, I'd either explode or pee on the seat, but I've done neither so far. Thank Larson for that. So are you wearing the pants or not? Or will you do something different from all the other Adam fangirls?
FANGIRL:
I'm wearing them. I don't care. The pants are a statement. You don't get it. You always liked Anthony better anyway.
OTHER FANGIRL:
Yeah… ok. I guess you're right, noob.
FANGIRL:
(glares) Besides you can't beat the awesomeness of those pants.
OTHER FANGIRL:
(admitting) They do look pretty hot, don't they?
FANGIRL:
See?
OTHER FANGIRL:
Hell, they look downright incredible on him, don't they?
RENTHEADS:

Okay, so by the way, this was GREEN GREEN DRESS... last one was 30/90. :)
In case you're slow? JK.
Okay, so... here's the scoop.
Adam and Anthony were staying at our hotel and we almost met them AGAIN. :) Some fangirls chased them out like, seconds before we entered the lobby and they ran down the icy street, scared. :D LOL.
HOWEVER... we rode in the elevator with Karmine Alers (MIMI UNDERSTUDY), Justin Johnston (ANGEL), and Haneefah Wood (Joanne). The guy sitting at the table next to us at breakfast was Jacques... uhm, his last name escapes me at the moment. But he played BENNY. And we walked out the door with Cary Shields, Adam Pascal's understudy. Oh, and Lexi (MIMI) walked out after that and we talked to her for a second.
It was pretty cool! :D
