March 21st

I took myself to see West Side Story today as a belated birthday present. I love theater and this is my all time favorite show so I was really excited when I read that it was coming out. They made some changes from the last time I saw this show, but the music is phenomenal and the show was fabulous. I finished off the day with a cupcake from Magnolia (yum) and an almost Angelina Jolie sighting. I missed her by minutes, but I did watch them filming a scene from her new movie. (a funeral procession in front of the Waldorf) The best part was the woman behind me on her cell, trying to figure out who had died. To be read in a heavy Long Island accent: Oh my gawd, I see the secret service, and like 10 cop cawrs. I wonder who it is, Oh wow, there's the hearse, are you watching the news? Do you know who this is?" Reason # 199887 why I love NYC: You never know what you're going to run into!
