1. THREE DAYS. CANNOT FATHOM THIS. Even though work is starting to fall in my lap again, and I really should do some of it because so much of it is due to my sitting around doing a whole lot of not much, right now my only concern is to keep from falling ill before I have to take off for the trip. Being barred from entering the US at this point is ( Read more... )

I've not seen one surface yet, but I know a couple of people who were there who absolutely would have audioed, so it's only a matter of time. Will keep you posted if anything appears!

ALLISON WINS AT LIFE. TRUFAX, PLZ.

EEK, THREE DAYS. You'll be seeing Wonderettes on Friday! I hope it stops effing raining by then, geez. (Gah, I just looked at weather.com and the next sunny day is supposed to be May 10. Kill me.)

If you find somewhere with actual free internet, let me know. Starbucks doesn't have it, unless you get a giftcard, use it, and then go online to register it (which doesn't work that well when you wanted it in order to go online in the first place). There's supposed to be some kind of wireless zone south of Central Park between like Broadway and 6th or something, provided by CBS (I think), but I've definitely been looking for a signal there before and found nothing. Also, your friend has an internet quota?! How does she survive? And how does that even, like, work?

Are you going to post a theatre schedule before you leave? *curious*

I can't believe Wonderettes is that soon, I WON'T believe it 'til I'm there and hopefully not falling asleep from the jet lag. Somehow I doubt it, since I'll be so hyped from adrenaline, but who knows!

Urgh that weather forecast does not make me happy, wut. At least it'll be... cooler, I guess. Umbrella it is.

ARGH WITH THE FAILY LACK OF FREE INTERNET. I thought you mentioned once being locked out of the house and finding free internet at a Starbucks? I think I'll need to google for information, it annoys me to go to a country where free internet is offered to me on a plate. (So spoilt.) My friend's internet quota is something like 10GB a month. Which, you know, normal people wouldn't max out. That should get you a sense of how much time she spends watching streaming video at home when she should be studying...

Still tying up loose ends, argh. I'll probably play it by ear for quite a lot of the shows this time, actually - it's easier since there's just me for so much of the trip!

Ha, I really do not believe you could ever fall asleep during Wonderettes. Waaaaay too much flail for that.

It does not make me happy either, especially considering it's already been raining since Friday. I want summer now!

I'm pretty sure I paid for a couple hours' worth of internet that time at Starbucks. I also do occasionally have a giftcard that I remember to activate, so that might have been the explanation. Have also googled for wireless hotspots before (which is how I found out about the CBS area), to little success. And I seriously did not know that internet companies here still implemented quotas at all - haven't heard of that since, like, 1998. Weird. (And speaking of 'should be studying'...)

Ah, okay. Well, I know I'll encounter you at Cheno's and Julia's concerts, if nothing else!

That's pretty much why I planned Wonderettes for the first night, I figured that would keep me up through the jet lag if all else fails!

Urgh, I less want summer. I want spring! I guess if it rains all the time I'll just be... indoors watching theatre and reading. Not that I wasn't planning to do that in the first place, ha.

Geez, lack of wireless internet for the epic fail. I genuinely don't understand what kind of stupid plan my friend signed up for, but I remember when we were there for the first few days in January, she warned me that I COULDN'T use the internet because it'd been maxed out. I was flummoxed. Especially when she told me her limit was 10gb!!

Definitely at Cheno's! Maybe we can do food before that? I have NO IDEA where City Centre is, aieee!

I sort of fail at finding internet because my phone has it all the time, however... this is going to sound weird but the Dunkin Donuts on 43rd and 10th has free wireless. I pass the sign for it every day. And some parks do, if the weather is nice....

ellixian May 4 2009, 18:42:23 UTC
That actually does not sound weird at all, and thank you for letting me know about that! Because I would absolutely stalk that Dunkin Donuts if I can't find anything else and just needed to hop on quickly during the day or something. I shall scout around for more wherever I can. I am not used to having my free wireless be dependent on weather! D:

BTW - not sure if you got my email about N2N? Absolutely NO worries if you're busy, btw, because I plan to do rush on the 21st anyway; it just works well for me schedule-wise.

I can go then! Fabulous, oui?

till love this show more than anything, WILL get back into it. But I'm going to take refuge for the next week. Fandom is going to EXPLODE.
My thoughts exactly. I'm staying away from all House related comms for a few days. lol

ellixian May 4 2009, 18:47:33 UTC
LOL - are you not planning to watch the episode the moment it airs?! Why not? I can't because I haven't seen all the preceding ones, or surely I'd be on it as soon as humanly possible. ;)

Reply

amy_119 May 4 2009, 18:49:40 UTC
Oh, no. I'll definitely be watching it when it airs, I just won't be reading all of the comms. Just my friends' reaction posts. The comms have a tendency to frustrate me after a while. ;)

I CANNOT BELIEVE HOW OFTEN YOU'RE ABLE TO GO TO NY! I AM SO FUCKING JEALOUS! I'd say, "I hope you have an amazing time!", but there's no doubt in my mind you will. LOL So... HAVE AN AMAZING TIME! :D

ellixian May 4 2009, 18:54:48 UTC
LOL I CAN GO SO OFTEN BECAUSE I AM LEGITIMATELY BATSHIT INSANE. (Also, because I spend the rest of my life working and not spending any money, but I don't like discussing that part of my life, LOL.)

THANK YOU! I aim to have nothing BUT an amazing time. XD
