Reflections

So, I'm sitting here watching American Idol. I know, I know, but it's the last show and they're at the Kodak Theatre. That's what sparked a myriad of memories for me. Yep, I was there. I stood on that stage. I danced around in next to nothing for an entire audience who cheered and laughed and gave us standing ovations. I didn't have to be created either. What an experience I will never forget.

I have to share something funny that happened on our last performance in LA. Taylor, our wonderful governor in the show, was singing his song, doin' his thing and he messed up a line. Before I tell you what line, let me preface by telling you that the entire Kodak Theatre backstage is painted in numerous shades of purple. It's on the walls, ceilings, doors, air vents, pipes. It's everywhere...purple. So, our own American Idol, Taylor had his line "Now who say's I don't speak out as plain as day". But to create a memory that will forever keep a smile in my heart, Taylor said "Now who says I don't speak out as........PURPLE day?" The entire cast could not hold back. Not one serious face on stage. We all had to turn our backs to the audience and couldn't look at eachother or we would burst into laughter. Taylor kept it together and continued on as if nothing had happened. What a rock star. Thank you Taylor for such a wonderful memory I will always have when I think of the Kodak Theatre.

Now when I see the Kodak it doesn't seem as intimidating. I've been there before and I'll be there again. YES!!!

Bring it.
