Por qué, dios, por qué?

Agh. So unless you have understood complete and utter chaos, you do not understand the current state of my house. Everyone's flying around insanely, and why? Just because some British guy happens to be singing in some musical while my family's in London.

Okay. So maybe that British guy is Ewan McGregor -- my sister's favorite actor. And maybe that musical is Guys and Dolls -- my sister's favorite musical. And maybe she still thinks that we could get seats to see the show, even though within the next two months we're already seeing two Broadway-caliber shows.

Maybe.

I mean, I understand a part of her enthusiasm. But at the same time, I'm the money-conscious one in the family, and the dollar-pound exchange rate hasn't been so good lately. We're talking $100 for one ticket. For at least 3 people.

All the same, she wants to go. And in this family, when we want something, we tend to ignore impossibilities...
