This year was no different.
After braving the Black Friday deals -- for which we really didn't buy anything that was on sale, we headed out to Glendale with my parents.
We grabbed a quick bite downtown, then decided to make a quick crosstown trek to Silver Lake to Intelligentsia -- my new coffee snob love. Em, my mom and I grabbed something to drink; Dad elected to walk from the restaurant to save a place in line at the Theater.
Let's be very clear. Unashamed, I find joy in mocking the opening day troubles of the performance; I have for years.
This year though, one of the owners and lead characters had a major back problem, so an understudy filled in. The understudy being, a mix of a British and Jamaican Ghost of Christmas Present -- fascinating, howling, drunk?
But still, the show is always a great way to usher in the holidays. It's been a high of 50 degrees lately, so we haven't had much of a problem with that, but even still, great fun.
