Where's My Ritalin???

[plumtreeblossom]

Next weekend brings two things that have my inner child binging off the walls like a superball.

First is the very, very, very long awaited opening of Tim Burton's Charlie and The Chocolate Factory (Watch the trailer! Watch the trailer!). I can't tell you how excited I am about my very favorite childhood movie of all times being reinterpreted. Yes, I'm aware that my beloved Johnny Depp's Wonka appears to be creepy in the Michael Jackson way. I don't care, I want an oompa loompa nooooooooooooooooowwwwwww.

As if that weren't enough to make me wet my pants, the following day my pre-ordered Book 6 of Harry Potter arrives on my doorstep. I will be in Hogwarts heaven. This is too much excitement all at once. Put me in time out.

Someone HAS to go with me to see Wonka! Probably not opening night, very soon after that. Please!!!

I will! When I did that show we turned Mistress Quickly into a drag queen... it was pretty funny

I am going on opening night. By myself, probably. And I'm going to get a big assortment of chocolate to shove in my purse before the show. And if there are songs (are there songs?!?) I'm going to sing the Ooompa Loompa song outloud. And I will be happy.

Actually this version isn't a musical. Its supposed to be a more true-to-book version, and more daaark. Mwahaha!

My first grade teacher read the book outloud. I probably read it 10 times after that. And I didn't see the movie 'til years later. We never had a VCR.... I heart Johnny Depp and I heart dark.
