We saw Dreamgirls at The Muny on Thursday. We had Cardinal tickets for Friday so we traded our tickets for Thursday. It was 103 degrees but it really didn't feel that hot. Maybe I'm getting used to it. We didn't have a picnic in the park though because we didn't want to sit outside any longer than we had to so we ate at Bottleworks. Anyway, Dreamgirls was great. Jennifer Holliday played Effie White, the same roll she played on Broadway when Dreamgirls debuted in 1981. Wow, it's hard to believe that it was over 30 years ago!
The Cubs came to town on Friday. Ugh, there were even some Cubs fans in the stadium and they cheered for every strike by a Cardinal. Seriously, I guess they have to cheer for something, poor dears. Anyway, the Cardinals beat the Cubs 4 to 1. Oh, and on Saturday, the Cardinals won 12 to 0, scoring all 12 runs in the 7th inning, tying a team record set back in 1926. Oh yeah, and the Cardinals won 7 to 0 yesterday. OK, so I know I've posted this before but it's just too funny not to post again...
Sorry Cubs fans. Oh wait, no I'm not...hee hee hee.
You are so mean to those poor Cub fans, NOT!!! Go Cardinals!!! I can't wait for them to come to DC to play the Nationals in August, I get to see my favorite team, the Cardinals of course, and also my new 2nd favorite, the Nats! Of course, I will have to cheer for the Cardinals though!
