enJOY it

FIRST : Things are going to be quiet around here the next couple days. We are right in the middle of our March 2011 Guest-A-Thon which is very exciting. It will be taking me longer to respond to emails for the next few days as well.

SECOND : the blog workshop will go on sale rain or shine on Monday 3/21 at 5 PM Pacific time. We just had daylight savings in the US so this is considered PDT. If you are not sure what time that is in your time zone, this website should help (just put the starting time as U.S.A – California – San Diego). I have been working on the class lessons all week and am getting so excited. And one more thing, I have decided to add a few more seats. Hopefully everyone that wants to take it will be able to.

THIRD : My handwriting was turned into a font! You can download it for free here.

LAST BUT NOT LEAST : Got five and a half minutes? Want to dream a dream? This is the best thing I have heard/seen in a long while. It is the 25th anniversary of Les Miserables. I have such distinct memories of being five and listening to my parents cassette tape of the play after they went and saw it in Minneapolis. And then I have distinct memories of reading the book freshman year of high school and finally putting characters names and plot lines to the soundtrack I already knew by heart. And ten years from now, I am sure I will have memories of listening to my favorite song from the play over and over again on youtube. Life is funny that way.

    They played the 25th anniversary concert Les Miz on PBS and I totally got sucked in. Love love love the music – went and saw it in college and we listened to the soundtrack over and over at work. And who knew a Jonas Bro could sing so well? 🙂

    I love Les Mis. I have since I was in high school. I have actually recorded the song you posted. Def made me tear up watching this and feeling the stirring of how much I miss singing.
    Thanks so much for sharing this Elise!
