Next Stop: River City

May 18, 2022 By lisa Leave a Comment

I'm still pinching myself, but I'm really trying to accept the fact that my husband and I actually bought tickets to see our first-ever Broadway show this fall. As soon as we heard about Hugh Jackman and the revival of The Music Man, we knew we wanted to see it. And in a few months, we actually will. The Music Man holds such a special place in my heart, as it does for so many people, for so many reasons. For me, it was the first show I ever performed in. It was at the Engle Lane Theatre in … [Read more...] about Next Stop: River City

Micro Post #1

April 26, 2022 By lisa

If I’m being honest with myself, I will admit that I have come back to this blog mostly because I have come to hate most social media outlets, but I have not broken myself of the habit of sharing random thoughts that hit my brain now and then. That said, I have finally started watching Only Murders in the Building on Hulu, and it is positively delightful. That is all. … [Read more...] about Micro Post #1

Crashed Into Something Good

April 26, 2022 By lisa

If you know me, you know that I'm a wee bit obsessed with visual media -- film and television in particular. Maybe it's because I struggle with visualizing in my mind. I can do it, like when I'm reading a book. But I find myself immensely relieved when I can enjoy a movie based on that book, because I am shown far more than I ever "saw" before. Also, I just love how all of the pieces come together. The words of the story combine with just the right view from the camera plus music and motion, and … [Read more...] about Crashed Into Something Good

Has Thor Become My Favorite Avenger? I Think He Has

December 3, 2017 By lisa

I considered myself a bit late to the party when I finally made it out to see Thor: Ragnarok tonight, but the packed theater proved me wrong. Could the turnout have been affected by excitement over the recent Avengers: Infinity War trailer, or was Ragnarok just that good of a movie? (Spoiler alert: I believe this movie may have just beaten the first Iron Man movie as my favorite of the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe. Yes, it's just that good.) We begin with our hero trapped in some sort … [Read more...] about Has Thor Become My Favorite Avenger? I Think He Has

It’s About Time

September 17, 2017 By lisa

It's almost embarrassing how long it's been since I've posted on this blog. It's not that I haven't watched many movies, although I've seen fewer than I'd like. Mostly, I've simply found that I didn't have much to say about the movies I have watched--nothing beyond a simple tweet or two. That changed recently, starting this past Mother's Day when my oldest son gave me a copy of Stephen King's 11/22/63. He'd kept the receipt because he knew that it was likely that this book was already a part of … [Read more...] about It’s About Time
