Last night was the Lisa Loeb concert that I had been waiting for. I was so excited about it. I was worried that it was going to be a let down, because I always get myself too excited for things and then they aren't as great as I expect. This was not like that at all. It was everything I expected and even better. I must say I like Lisa Loeb even more now that I have seen her live. It was just her and her guitar on stage. No loud drums or backup singers to distract me. It was all her. She was not only extremely talented and sounded the exact same as she does on her CD's, but she was hilarious in between songs. I bought a shirt and I was able to get it signed afterwards. I was really excited. She was so short. Sarah, Kristin, and I were obviously the youngest ones there. We were asked our age several times. They were embarrassed, but I told them to embrace it. Lisa Loeb was like "Oh are you guys all friends?" because the three of us took a picture with her. Then she said, "Oh you guys are cute." That was the extent of our conversation. I, of course told her how awesome she was, but I didn't want to hold up the line so that was all I said.
I was worried Sarah, Kristin, and I would get tired and cranky, but we all were super hyper and they both said they had a blast as well. After the show we met up with Kristin's brother John and my brother and his boyfriend. It was really fun. We didn't leave Ann Arbor until 12:15. Then the drive home and all was a blast. We were still really giddy and excited from the concert. I got home and went to bed at 1:30. I woke up at 6:30 and actually did okay getting through the day. I had to make some tea at lunch to take to 5th hour, but it all worked out. I don't have any homework except, IND Study tonight. I think I am going to try to go to bed at like 8, because I am exhausted.
Well, the rest of the week is going to be busy. I am not sure when I will get to post next, but I had to rave about my Lisa Loeb conert. It was the best concert I have been too. I am aware I have not been to that many concerts, but none the less, I would pay to see her again next time she comes close by. I am actually in the mood to write (I haven't felt like it in a while). Maybe tonight I will actually write something of quality instead of the crap I've been writing.

sure, go ahead with the poem - if it's relevant for you.
Hey aimee - i realized that i am definitely kind of slow. i misspelled your name on the title of that entry for you - i apologize! it was totally unconscious. you must get annoyed by that :)
Aimee,
I just read a few entries. I can hear your voice getting stronger, especially in the homecoming and nursing home entries.
Rhiannon,
I love the stuff you said about coming-of-age. You have a great piece that asks the important questions about what growing up means. And I hope I am not a "stuffy adult". I totally enjoy the giddy times of laughing and joking and being silly for no apparent reason except: FUN!
I'm still working on the issue of letting lovers make me feel bad in certain ways. I find that the only way I can avoid it is to have "just friends." I hope you both are able to hold to the truth of who you are and love yourself enough to avoid that agony.
I hope lots of young women will send Aimee submissions for her project. I think it can be a very powerful collection.
Peace OUT.
lisa
