Dessert First
Sometimes it is a challenge to be me. I have a lot of free time and I am really fabulous. Do you know how hard that makes behaving?!

My Stroke of Insight
Read any good books lately? I have a suggestion for your next bookstore run. It’s definitely not your average vampire, angst-ridden love story, but it was absolutely what I needed at this upside moment of my roller coaster ride.

Any Dream Will Do
Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is a spectacular event not to be missed. Gareth Gates lends a tangible familiarity and lovable quality to his debut as Joseph. This show is absolutely dream-like in its presentation – the detail in every fantastic element, as well as the timely humor infused throughout, makes for an evening…

Why Doesn’t Drew Post More Often?
And the answer is… I am busy. Nothing more glamorous than that unfortunately. Good news is, I am back with an update today so Jen could take the night off. May not be great news to you, but Jen is glad to have a night to herself. Over the next few weeks Jen and I…

Hey, Quiet Out There!
So yesterday, on my way into the office there was a large chuck of Leicester Square blocked off by barricade and a large crane was behind it hanging a sign on the front of the Empire building. Now I guess I should tell you a bit about Leicester Square so you understand what I am talking…
