Even though I needed to stay late at work, I didn't. Sure, that's me, rebellious.
Instead I headed to meet my mom and sister for dinner. Although the appetizer was incredible, the service was terrible, and we didn't even get our main courses before we had to leave.
Instead, we paid and walked across the breezway. (alright, they walked, I crutched.)
Minutes later there was fur flying in the aisles. And the three of us were grinning from ear to ear. I suppose you could say Cheshire Cat grins.
I could vividly remember going to the theater to see the very same musical years ago with my mom, sister and grandma. Long before it celebrated any anniversaries. And it's now celebrating it's 25th.
The evening was intoxicating, despite the rough start. Even more incredible than I remembered. And I had remembered the songs. Even though I don't think I've heard any but the most famous one since I was a teenager.
Odd what the memory keeps locked away.
At dinner and after the show, I ingested more caffeine than I have in over a month, since before my surgery. I had to finish the work before tomorrow somehow.
And now, instead of sleep, all I want to do is sing and stretch. (I have to draw the line at cleaning behind my ears with my paws.)
But sleep must come. I must remind myself, I'm not really a nocturnal cat, but a girl with a meeting in the morning.

tonight will be a memory too
and a new day will begin...
