Talk me out of this, please.

I want to see the North Shore Les Mis so bad, but I don't have consecutive days off--I'm off Wednesdays and Saturdays--and it's an eight-hour drive away. Which makes it a bitch and a half to get there, see the show, get back, and then actually sleep. (I did not sleep last night. Not enough blood in my caffeine system. And I've felt like death all day because of it.)

So... it would be a bad idea to go to bed early some Tuesday night, depart at 4am for North Shore, see the Wednesday matinee, hop right back in the car, and get back in the small hours of Thursday morning. Wouldn't it? Talk me out of it plz.

(Other reasons not to: Broadway LM on Wednesday the 17th, Saturday the 20th, Saturday November 3rd, and sometime in the week of November 13-19 depending on when Anderson is on as Enjolras. Jesus Christ.)

Yep, North Shore. Doing Les Mis in the round(!)

Aw man, am I out of the loop. *eyes it*

I generally have the opinion that Les Mis never is a bad idea...but in this case I think it is:(

Did you mean this?;)

driving on 128/I-95 (surprise! it's the same road!) tends to be not fun.

Don't do it! Unless you want me to call you to keep you awake on the drive! ;-)

If you don't want to come up on Saturday the 10th honestly let me know. Because then I will stay in hotel room with Jess. Quite frankly I don't want to drive the 8 hours home from Massachusetts alone again like I did in June, so... yeah. XD Want a passenger if I'm going straight home after to help keep me awake.

As you probably noticed from my "talk me out of London" post, our mutual friends are rubbish at talking people out of things involving LM *g*.

(no chance you can try to exchange days with someone to get two consecutive days off?)

It would be dangerous and scary to make the 8 hour drive like that. At least it would for me. Which is why I'm staying overnight with my carload.
