Well, I don't know what got into me, but I bought myself tickets to go see Make Me a Song in London.

I'm catching an overnight flight on a Friday, arriving Saturday morning, seeing the show Saturday night, and flying home on Sunday. Not my sanest decision ever, but it's done. *EEK!*

I think I'm going to bite the bullet and buy an MP3-player for the trip. I've been wanting one for a while, but couldn't justify the expense. The American Airlines flight I'm on doesn't have the fancy personal entertainment systems that most airlines seem to have upgraded to, and the Creative Labs Zen player I'm eying has great video capabilities, so this gives me a perfect excuse to splurge a little. Between that, the Nintendo DS I got for Christmas, and a good book, I should have plenty to keep me occupied for 8 hours.

On a local level, much of my family's going to see the "Wicked" tour this weekend. It's not a show that I'm foaming at the mouth over like a lot of people, but it'll be nice to have a live performance of it under my belt. Plus my 5-year-old niece is going for her second-ever Broadway show. It's always fun to see this stuff through her eyes. :)
