Sakura/Secret Hunter + my hateful wallet

matataku_hoshiSo my contact who is in Tomo no Kai came through and it looks like I'll be able to get tickets for Sakura/Secret Hunter. My purse is uh...hurting lately with tickets for all the shiny shows going on sale within the next month. Dal Lake no Koi, Osaka Samurai, Tokyo's Elisabeth...Takarazuka's Hot Flower of Valencia (will be in the Kansai area with my mom in July so I'm going to make a pilgrimage to Takarazuka).
So uh, yeah, in response to all this, my wallet really, really hates me. The following conversation happened the other day sitting around talking to one of the English teachers I work with (paraphrased):
Me: Computers are expensive. I'd love to get a new computer, but mine right now is only three years old and I'd rather not have to shell out money for a new one for a while.
Takeuchi-sensei: Maybe you don't have money because you go to the theater so much.
Me: *blushes and makes fun of Takeuchi-sensei's love of baseball*
(To explain, I asked for his help translating a couple of sentences from the Osaka Samurai summary. When he was wondering what exactly it was, I finally told him that it was a Takarazuka show. We began talking about my interest in theater, and at one point I admitted that recently I end up at the theater (mostly Takarazuka) about once a month. I thought that was fairly casual compared to some fans who go see their favorite stars ten times during the run ^_^)
Why do I always manage to get interested in expensive hobbies? If it helps, though, I still do manage to pay my bills, student loans, and put at least a little into savings every month so hopefully I'm not completely gone. Yet.
I feel like in the next couple of weeks I need to do my research on Hoshigumi, since I really don't know much about them at all. I've seen the first half of Singin' in the Rain, but that's about it. Aran Kei is very pretty and seems to have good charisma. Right now, having just met, we're just acquauntances. It remains to be seen if we'll have a full-on love affair.
