waiting for the other shoe to drop

So I got an email about tickets for Equus being available through broadway.com and there was flailing and squeeing on my flist about stage seats, so I thought I would buy a ticket to another show and try my luck. I went to the broadway.com website but there was no mention of stage seats, so I went to telecharge.com and looked for tickets there. I looked at stage seating, but for some reason it made me nervous, so I decided to see what other normal seats I would be able to get for the same performance, thinking it would be in the back half of the theatre like my seat for the first show I'm going to.
It wasn't. It was third row from the front, aisle seat.
I quickly snapped up the ticket, even though part of me is waiting for it to all be revealed as a massive mistake. I thought seats that close would be part of the premium $250 seating and I'm not paying that much. Then I thought I was reading the seating chart wrong, but in the description it stated third row from front.
Here are the details. Someone reassure me that I'm not dreaming and I actually did score awesome tickets:

1 Ticket, Center Orchestra Row A, Seat 101
Total Cost: $126.00

*flails*
I also bought a ticket to The Little Mermaid. :O) That brings the total of show bought for my NYC trip to four (2 x Equus, 1 x The Little Mermaid, 1 x Cirque du Soleil). I am intrigued by Shrek, and since its opening while I'm there I will have to buy in advance. Otherwise, unless something awesome comes up, I am going to buy all my other tickets while I'm there.

In other news, I seriously hurt my back yesterday. I had to leave work I was in so much pain. Chiro had a go at it so hopefully I will feel better soon - although the only other time I have had this problem, in Dec of last year, I'm convinced the only reason I got better was the week away from work, (ie sitting at my desk all day long) and not the multiple trips to the chiro.
As such, I probably wont be online much the next few days, so I obviously wont be checking my flist. I have a fic I want to post maybe tonight but apart from that it will only be very short stints at the computer (ie checking my email and thats it) so if you have something you want me to see please link me.
Oh, and I am about a third of the way through Breaking Dawn, so no spoliers about that thanks.
:O)
Hope everyone out there is doing well.
