i know, i know....

It's been forever since I've written anything in here. Eh, it's not like anyone really cares ... only Trent has really bugged me about it and not even him that much. I just haven't been inspired to say anything. I mean, spent a week going back and forth visiting Grandma at the hospital, have been exercising and trying to eat right (recording in a food log, even!) and just generally hanging out when I'm not at work. Blah, blah, blah.... Nothing of particular interest.

I did have some of the girls over a couple Saturday's ago and we had an enjoyable evening. Kirsten made a delicious apple cobbler, Sam brought candy and champagne, Trent was an honorary girl that night and brought us a copy of Mean Girls to watch, and Jess came by and provided us with her impeccable wit and charm.

Oh ... seeing as how the last post was about Tori tour dates - hah! The onsale dates for those shows have come and gone and talk about hassle! First there was a presale for the shows. It was warned that there was a limited amount of tickets for these presales, but we had NO idea how limited it would turn out to be. Hardly anybody was able to secure any tickets at all during those presales. I was lucky enough to score 2 tickets to the Detroit show in Row C. WEE! But had no luck with NYC or Chicago. So onto the general onsales we went.... yeah. Forget trying for good seats. The brokers and scalpers had those eaten up long ago. :( We managed to get Orch. CC for Chicago, which is about 29th row or so (oh, and my mouse froze in the middle of getting those! had to use the [tab] button to finish!). NYC sold out in, literally, 2 minutes. We were going crazy refreshing the screen, hoping that someone's credit card would get denied or some tickets would be thrown back. Nothing. We resorted to Ebay and bought some 2nd balcony seats for a little more than the most expensive seats in the house. Not bad when you consider the average ticket for the NYC show is going for around $250 now. Sheeeeit.

That's pretty much about it ... oh, I also was able to enjoy a great massage from Angi again. I'm telling you, if you get the chance to sign up while she still needs the practice hours for school ... DO IT. It's a great time. :) We're hoping to plan a "massage night" at my house where I can invite some people over to hang and have Angi set up in my bedroom. We'll see how it pans out...
