I had been anticipating the release of the movie RENT for months. Due to a big jewelry show coming up, I didn't get to see it on opening night- which coincidentally was just a few days before I was supposed to hop on a plane for South Dakota for the show and to spend Thanksgiving with my family.
I got home on Thanksgiving Day, had Thanksgiving with 482 relatives, only a fraction of whom I enjoy spending time with (if you're reading this, of COURSE I like spending time with you and you and you, well, "get it")then my sister Kelli walks through the American Legion Hall doors (large family + midwest = holidays at the local VFW) We start talking, and she says, "Do you want to see RENT?" I was so excited! I had only been prepping Brandon for seeing it with me opening night for the past 3 months. We sped back to Sioux Falls, and caught the late show. It was so much fun seeing the movie with someone who appreciates it. I saw the musical once, while Kelli saw it several times on Broadway- so she can probably out-RENT me. It comes out on DVD around February 20th, and I'm so going to camp out at Best Buy starting at midnight on February 19th XBOX 360 style. Guess I've got... 9? days to prep Brandon. Shit.

I L-O-V-E-D the movie and I don't care what others said or think about it or what the reviews or ratings said about it either! I loved it. I want it on reel, video, DVD, 8-track, cassette, and CD. Thanks for going with me Nicki. My attempts to see it again in the theater have been everything but successful. That was a once in a lifetime opportunity.
I am anxiously awaiting the DVD release! Oh, and just bought the book that Anthony Rapp (who played Mark) wrote. I've had it two days and am already on page 80- unheard of speed reading for the grownup me. Look it up on Amazon...
