Watch the Comedy Alone in New York

 很抱歉，我打中文字实在太慢，所以才写英文。还只有笔记本电脑在身旁才可以打我喜爱的中文。

日记大意是说我一人在纽约看喜剧，下定决心要交一些纽约的朋友。还提到纽约人的乐观主动，和我打招呼开玩笑不怕陌生。

看这出戏的人不管是单身，在爱恋中，还是已婚，老年，都可以在这出戏里找到你生活中的一点细节对照，一个典型片断。音乐和演唱都不怎么样，就是台词对话很幽默。懂得美国俚语多一些呢，就会觉得更幽默。4位演员客窜不同年龄的人物，表情动作非常绝活。

After walked out the UN tour, I went to see a Broadway comedy alone. The show is called: “I love you, you are perfect. Now Change.” The tickets seller lifted his eyebrow: and trying to understand my lonely situation. “Single ticket?” I was like “yah”. In the midst of paying for it, he saw a woman behind me speaking one question to me. Then ticket seller said again: “Is she your friend?” “No. why? (Pause).... is it odd for someone to see a show alone?” He smiled: “Give me a call. I’ll go with you.” 大笑而去。心想：got to make some NY friends here!

Walked a couple of long blocks on the 43rd street, my feet were really hurt. I thought about women New Yorkers’ biggest pain must be the feet pain, not the heartache described in “Sex and City” of being a 35 years old single. Eventually I made it earlier in that small theater. Sat down in a corner and put my head on that lovely dirty wall, I fell into sleep. It's been a long day in this city.

The announcement woke me up: “Dear audience, we love you, you are perfect. Now if your cell phone is on, our love will be changed. ”

The show compiled and exaggerated pieces of life together from the dating pain, married, parenting, to the coping with the death of spouses. Everybody could easily relate to the stories and scene.   One scene was about a metropolitan couple who started their journey of dating for about two months until the point of having sex together. They bumped into each other after break up while the women companied with her dog and the men had already moved on to another female.  (How fickle our modern LOVE is!) One the other hand there was a funky looking woman sat aside the dating table with a nerd man in his synthetic shirt. With two hands supporting her breasts the women sighed: “I wish that I’am a babe!” The synthetic men sighed: “I wish that I am a stud!”

Another creation in the show was a new field for a lawyer who got rich by help couple to sue the partner’s disappointed love-making.

The singing and the musicals were not impressive to me, what is incredible was that expressions by the four actors and actresses. The lines are quite funny and you’d hope to understand more of the American slang.  

After the show I walked alone in that long long 43^rd blocks. “Hi.  Sweetie. How are you doing? ” out cried was an Italian-looking man. I looked around and found nobody was at the 10 feet circle. So I figured out the man was talking to me. Hum… New York men do not hesitate to talk to strange girls. I had this similars experience  in Spain nine years ago. Pittsburghers are never like that. I simply waved at him.
