My inner nerd...

Ok bloggers.  I've been advised by a close colleague not to write like a "development director" and rather to be the nerd that I am...(nice, right?!)

It's true.  I can get pretty enthusiastic about the things that I like.  Whether I'm discussing my children or a cool new letterpress store I just visited, I'm likely to be waving my hands up and down in excitement.  Right now, I'm excited about the May 5th Way Off-Broadway Party.  I really am.  You should get your tickets. Last year's event was a blast, and this year is going to be even better.  I have my eye on several auction items- I really want the camera, I'm humming Broadway tunes, and I can't wait until the end of the evening (after a successful auction!) when I have a Mar-Townie in hand and dance the night away on stage.  

When I imagine the night, I see success that goes beyond financial goals.  I see us all together, (philanthropists, actors, artists, patrons, etc.), raising a glass and toasting our good fortune to have such a special place for theater right downtown. I see this event as an opportunity to create community.  I know, I'm enthusiastic, but I can't help it.  Guilty as charged.

So come on bloggers, log in and share the love.  Let us know what you're looking forward to bidding on.  What are you wearing?!  What tunes do you want on the dance floor?  (For those of you still with me, I have a little surprise for you!  If you're one of the first ten individuals to email me here, with "Discounted Tickets Please" in the subject line, I'll reply with a discount offer for two.  Please don't forget the please.  Thank you.)
