real quick

Some finished knitting: A quick instant-gratification project for CIC / Care Wool cast on yesterday and finished today.

My plans for the rest of the day include wolfing down lunch and then deciding whether to fit in a chapter or two of my current read or work on some art journaling or both.

As for the matter of last weekend’s Mayer concert, I think that the meaningfulness of the experience is best known to me and trying to explain how I feel about it will only serve to embarrass me a little. So, I’ll give some highlights.

  • Kelly and Tom were at the show on the day before and gave me a nice lengthy preview via cell phone.
  • The kids very much enjoyed spending the evening with dear-friend Jeanell.
  • Justin wrote a little in his blog, here.
  • I made a point not to look up what his set list might be, so as to be happily surprised with each song.
  • “Gravity” was the perfect choice to end the first round of his set, and I was touched to hear about how much the song means to him.
  • One of the signs in the crowd that said something like “Never been kissed - Want to be my first?”, John called the gal up to the stage and planted one on her. So cool.
  • After spending the entire show speculating as to whether they’d do “Neon”, getting to the last song, holding my breath through the lead-in, and hearing the first notes of it, I was a very happy girl.
  • I still am.

      Ohh, I love John Mayer, but I’ve discovered that I can’t actually watch him sing. *lol* :) I’m glad you had fun & got to hear the song you wanted!! Great socks, btw!
