Can anyone say “frickin’ awesome”?!
Okay, here it goes again. I got more tickets for another concert. This time…
William Joseph!!
Remember, I went to see Il Divo in April with Elin and William opened for them and I loved him even more than Il Divo (sh, don’t tell anyone) and I told Elin “If he EVER comes here, I’m going!!!” And he is. So I am.
I was checking my email this evening, like any other evening of the week. There in my inbox ‘Live nation presents William Joseph in concert.’ I freak out momentarily, contemplate going to ask Jer what I should do, override THAT thought and check to see what kind of tickets are available. Well my first try I get front row tickets and only 2 minutes to make a decision…dial up internet…no time to think. So all sense flies out of my head as I press “purchase” and the next thing I know I’m going to see William Joseph. Now to figure out a way to tell Jer…hmmm…
Me kneeling in front of the bed wringing my hands searching for the right words to explain my impulsiveness…”Honey, I’ve done something and please don’t be mad. Remember how much you love me, repeat after me “I love my wife, I love my wife…” deep breath. Okay, now think of the worst thing I could possibly do…got it? It’s not THAT bad. Remember when I went to see Il Divo with Elin and William Joseph opened and I said I really, really loved him and that one day I want to see him in concert and you’d love him too ’cause he’s so awesome (deep gulp of air) so I bought the cd and you DID love him and I hope you really love him because we’re sitting in the front row to go see him…in January…”
Jer looks at me with a shell shocked look of astonishment. “When, where, when…”
“Just now. About 2 minutes ago. And it’s in January about 11 days after Michael Buble.” (That’s going to be a freakin’ amazing week! Month!!!) Luckily for me, Jer’s very ecstatic. He’s listening to the cd as we speak. Woohoo!!!
do you see me? i am green.
dibs on the extra ticket if Jer gets sick.

Okay, so I must confess I’ve never heard of this guy (forgive me), but he looks a bit like Mark Ruffalo which is never a bad thing! Congrats on getting such amazing tickets!

Take a deep breath. You two are so cute. I just see two little peas in a pod. It’s refreshing and the way it should be.
Enjoy! You concert queen.
I have been to a few concerts where I really liked the opening artist more than the headliner. I think it’s great when it works out like that.

Sounds like we have similar husbands…I stress about telling him “money” things and when I do he usually says, “Did it make you happy?” when I say “yes” he smiles and says, “well, then, that’s all that matters!”
He spoils me!
WHat a GRAND weekend that will be!!
Good for you!
I have NEVER gotten front row!
