Mood:  caffeinated

I was hoping to post yesterday but I spent the entire day reading through resumes. Yep we are finally working on getting someone hired for my old job. I still have about 10 more to read today but I am taking a moment to drink my coffee and write a quick post.

Wednesday night I had tickets for Lennie and I to see “Walking with the Dinosaurs”. Lennie was not anxious to see and tried just about everything he could think of to get out of it. But I told him that I spent $50 on his ticket so he was going to go whether he liked it or not. I reminded him that I went to see Rod Stewart and never complained.

The weeks leading up to the performance every time someone brought up Wednesday night Lennie would sigh and say things like, “Rebecca is making me go see Dancing with Dinosaurs” or “We got to go see Barney and Friends”. I knew once he got there and saw the show that he would like it.

We had to leave early because the State Fair is going on right across from the center and traffic would be a nightmare. We ended up having to pay $10 to park which pissed me off a little but we got to park close to the center. I had gotten special tickets in the balcony section which provided us with our own bar and free popcorn and soda. Once Lennie saw that he started to brighten up s bit. We got some burgers and beer and took our seats.

The show started and I was amazed from beginning to end. I have never seen anything like it. The dinosaurs looked so real and you forgot at times that they were puppets…very LARGE puppets. They even had a full size Brachiosaurus. AMAZING!!! And what did Lennie think of the show? He really liked it. He said it was no Rod Stewart concert but he was glad I had forced him to come.

If you see that the show is coming to your town….BUY TICKETS!!! Especially if you have kids. It is amazing and you will be entertained. Just check out the video below.

Well my coffee is finished and I need to get back to reading resumes. Hope you all have a great weekend.
