Week without Shopping- Try this, it'll be fun!
An article on the NYTimes Diner's blog about how "over provisioned" Americans are. Blog suggested trying a week without shopping. Visit your freezer, pantry and cupboards! I have more pasta in the pantry than I care to admit...and canned goods, baking items... I'm going to try this. It will be fun. Just as soon as I make a trip to the market....

What happens that night will change their world and the world around them. 8pm Thurs-Sun & 3pm Matinee on Sunday. Tickets are $10 and available at the door or on the web site. Call 910.233.9914 for more information.

Tick, Tick...Boom! at City Stage on Front St.
A musical look at the courage it takes to follow your dreams, TICK, TICK... BOOM! is Jonathan Larson's autobiographical tale of a young composer on the brink of turning 30 and falling into oblivion. His girlfriend wants to get married and move out of the city (TICK,), his best friend is making big bucks on Madison Avenue (TICK...), yet Jon is still waiting on tables and trying to write the great American musical (BOOM!). Containing fourteen songs, ten characters, three actors, and a band, TICK, TICK... BOOM! takes you on the playwright's journey that led to the Broadway blockbuster, RENT.
