Whee! So excited! Have my ticket for September 22!
Not as exciting? My annual summer humiliation of auditioning for "Who Wants to be a Millionaire." I didn't pass the stupid test--clearly, I'm too stupid to even pass a stupid test. As I was breezing through the questions on the first page (a basketball question? score! a tennis question? woo hoo! a "Tale of Two Cities" question? omg, I'm gonna pass!!), then I turned the paper over. Ugh. Too many questions about popular (but apparently not to me) vlogs and proper table settings (I have the table manners of a convict) and geography. Geography has never been my strong suit. I may try one more time this summer, then I may give up. I've been auditioning for at least four years and they NEVER PICK ME. Either I'm too weird or not weird enough. You would think I would fall into one of those categories, but...no. I need to find a new game show to be on. Any help with this would be appreciated.
Since I was vaguely depressed, I stopped at Whole Foods for my current obsession: their watermelon feta salad. Yum yummy. I also picked up some fresh corn salad and some pasta salad. Dinner was covered. Then, I wanted to stop for a drink. But I thought I don't really NEED a drink, and I don't want my watermelon salad to go bad. To compromise, I decided to stop in a tea shop I've wanted to visit but never have: Argo Tea, just off Columbus Circle. I can HIGHLY recommend the iced green tea ginger sparkler. I had a little left when I got home, so here's a photo. :)
To close, I highly recommend Kate Baldwin's new CD "She Loves Him - Live at Feinstein's." She sings all Sheldon Harnick songs, and Sheldon joins her for quite a few of them. He is totally delightful and his songs are, too. Check it out!
