This weekend was full of all sorts of wonderful things - new things that I've never liked and old things that I always love. Basically it was a wonderful weekend!
As I said on Friday, I went to see Rent and fell back in love with this beautiful show. It makes me cry every single time, and yet I still go back for more. This time around it was a little different. What always makes me cry, made me cry but once I started I couldn't stop. Some of the songs just hit me harder than usual. But by the end I was smiling again - through my tears of course.
Then on Saturday, I woke up early to volunteer at the Annapolis Film Festival. I don't even like films, but for some reason I thought it might be fun, which is strange in and of itself, since chatting with people that I don't know has often been called my nightmare. But this weekend I discovered something. Chatting with new artsy people is super fun. The people that were volunteering with me were positively lovely. We chatted about theatre, travel, movies, food and everything in between for a good 6 hours. And it was wonderful. I was actually sad when it was time to leave, that I hadn't signed up for another block of time.
After that, it was off to paint pottery on Main Street in Annapolis. Now, painting is definitely not my craft of choice, but I had such a great time. The best part of this studio is that they don't charge for a sit fee. After some hemming and hawing, I finally decided on a candy dish that I then painted in a Falsettos-inspired motif. I loved it before it baked and I'm super excited to see it next week after it gets fired.
After a busy Saturday, Sunday was spent with family and friends eating the absolute best Mexican food and chocolate-coconut cake. Like I said, it was a pretty much fabulous weekend and I'm hoping plenty of wonderful weekends like this are in my future!
