NYC on a Friday night . . .

I had an exciting weekend folks. Good times all around. I got home Friday evening around 6PM. I had plans to meet a girlfiend from Brooklyn to catch Tyler Perry's Why did I get married and to celebrate the anniversary of her 1 year presence in NYC. We were gonna meet @ 7 until I got a phonecall from my roommate offering me a ticket to see The Color Purple. I felt bad, but on a social scale, Fanny & Oprah trump Tyler Perry, so I cancelled.

I meet my roommate and her brother and his partner. We get in the theatre. We are sitting on the FRONT ROW! So I text my momma and tell her how I love NY. We open the Playbill booklet. Something falls out. The role of Fantasia will be played by Montego Glover.

WTF???

It's Friday night and Fantasia calls in. She got life messed up.

So we left. No Color Purple for me. No Fantasia for me. I was, however, treated to dinner by some pretty awesome folks, that were pretty good company too. We ate at the Eatery. I recommend the mac n cheese, the cheesecake, and the waiter we had. The waiter even put us up on game, when he informed us that Fanny is gaining quite the reputation for not showing up. I think it's tacky. While I do love Fantasia, she ain't on Beyonce status. I wonder if Oprah knows about her attendance. I will keep my fingers crossed that when I buy tickets, she will be there.

It does suck that those front row tickets we had were rush tickets, meaning my roommate's brother stood in line the morning of the show and got a special rate. They only cost @ $30.
