tired and wired

so its 11:30 and I am just back at the hostel after seeing Wicked. shouldn't be tired but my roomate from last night got up at 6 and took an hour to get ready and leave at 7. twit should have got his shit together the night before and left quickly and quietly. just got back from Wicked which was very good and should go to bed as |I am tired but also wired so I am doing this first. took a tour today that included a boatride on the Thames to Greenwich. Johnny Depp is filing a new Pirates of the Caribean movie in Greenwich but the most we saw was lots of closed sets and a few actors in period british navy uniforms. however later when I was in teh Greenwish market (crafts, collectibles etc) I saw a guy who could have been Johnny Depp withot makeup or swagger but who knows. I stood astride the Prime Meridian of longitude with a foot in the western hemisphere and a foot in the eastern hemisphere. was going to cross the thames by walking a pedestrian tunnel under it but the lift was out of service. took a train to St pauls and walked along the embankment to the Parliament Buildings and Westminster abbey and then to the theater which was across from Victoria station. when the show got out around 10:30 I could have taken the tube or a buss back to the hostel but I wanted to suck up as much memory/atmosphere I could as I don't think I will go out tomorrow except maybe during the day. walked a couple of blocks back along Victoria street to the Thames and could see the London Eye - just a Ferris wheel but a really really big Ferris wheel. walked past Westminster Abbey, the houses of parliament and big ben and down Whitehall street to Traflgar square. then up Charing Cross road past thebars, restuarants and theaters getting out. getting to 11:00 on a Thursday but still lots and lots of people around. continued up Charing Cross Road which changed its name for no apparent reason to |Tottenham Court road and psat the Spearmint Rhino, a 'gentleman's club' and the two doormen look like members of the russian mafia. there is a young woman outside having a smoke. she pulls her jacket closed and before she does I can see she is wearing some kind of sexy uniform and must work in the club. she looks more like a tired single mom than a sex object.
