The finale of Birthday Month

March is my birthday month, and we have certainly done a lot! It's especially fun, though, that we truly did celebrate from the very first day to the very last day, as today I finally got to enjoy my present from Brett: tickets to see Broadway's musical Wicked!

We started off the evening by heading down to the Hard Rock Cafe downtown. HRCs are always cool places to go visit. Something about them that I really like. It was also perfect because we were able to go park for dinner and avoid the traffic of people parking for the play. While at HRC we ordered what turned out to be the most gigantic chocolate sundae brownie dessert! Mmmmm!

After dinner, we walked over to the play! It's absolutely phenomenal! I'd heard it was good, but I really, really loved it. If you aren't familiar with the storyline, here's a brief explanation: Wicked goes back to talk about the two witches from Oz. The majority of the play covers the history previous to the well-known movie Wizard of Oz, but it does scan into the future after what is seen in the movie. It's a great story, and it had parts that I didn't expect or know exactly how it would turn out.

Now, sadly, the birthday month is over. But, it was the perfect birthday gift, and well worth the wait!

Don't you?!?! Actually, I stole the idea from Jeni. Plus, (and you'll understand this) since I have a birthday at the beginning of the month, people finally turn their calendars 10 days into March, realize they have forgotten, and then send a card, so it lasts all month!
