Flashdance The Musical touring now

I was given tickets to see Flashdance last night by the theatre, I was overly excited. I love 80's outfits and 80's music and 80's movies. I was born in the 80's so I missed all of the fun. This is the 30th anniversary of the movie Flashdance.

Now Flashdance is a show about a steel town girl with a passion for dance. It is based off the movie. There is a lot of dance in this show. I really enjoyed that, being a dancer myself. I will be in dance classes again this coming month. I am beyond excited.

The show is now on its first national tour. It will be on it's way to Broadway at some point. I hope it does hit the big stage because it is full of life, passion and the desire for a life that is better then what we all have.

You will recognize a lot of the songs from Joan Jett's I love Rock and Roll, to Irene Carr's What a Feeling. Gloria, Manhunt, and Maniac are all sung as well. Then you have 16 new songs written by Robbie Roth. I liked the song Remember Me sang by Gloria.

The show has a reminiscent feel of Footloose the musical. The music sounded like Footloose to me and I really adore Footloose so that made me smile.

The actress that played Alex was really good and reminded me of Amy Spanger. The actor who played Nick was great as well. I really liked Gloria she was wonderful.

I saw the show in Costa Mesa, California, but you can catch the show as it travels the USA.

How I Met Your Mother Season 8 episode 23

I am quite the Neil Patrick Harris fan. So when this show hit the air, I was overly pleased. I could tell you episode for episode the show, but I watched this weeks episode and it made me think about my life and I wanted to share it with the world.

Robin is searching for a locket she buried when she was a kid. She calls up Barney first (her fiance, NPH) and he tells her he's busy and he asks if it's important, she say not its fine. So she calls up Ted (her ex and now close friend) and they have the same conversation. Ted shows up and tells her he knows her well enough to read her.

This is something that I always say in what made me decide Jason is my life partner. One of the many many reasons, I want to spend my life with him. He knows my language better then any family, friend, ex, better then anyone in my life. He knows me as well as I know me. Its what makes me feel safe with him. I know that he pays attention to me. It the most reassuring feeling in the world, when someone can look at you and know what you need. It is what makes him so special. Why he goes out and buys me Dibs at the movie theatre when I don't feel good. Or knows what to order for me at any restaurant.

We have our share of difficulties, like anyone and some of our problems are big. Yet we have one thing going, the passion and insync'ness we share.

Does any of you share that with your partner? Do you know what I mean?
