Monica picked Kettering.
Yeah, you read that right. No comment. She sent her deposit in last week.
Anyway, on to other news, I guess.
As at least one of you knows, the Pat concert (at the Whiting...still can't get over that, lol) was Monday.
As usual, great show. Fo sho. I have a setlist, because my dad went to the concert for his History of Rock 'n' Roll class (they had to attend a rock concert and write a paper about it...psh. I wish *I* had a class like that). However, I do not have that setlist with me right now because I'm at school...so I'll have to update again some other time with that.
The concert was sweet. The Whiting is really small, so the concert was like this intimate get-together thing...it was like 500 people or something hanging out with Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo. So cool.
I don't know...it wasn't like any other concert I've ever been to. And she seemed to really enjoy herself. Gah. Love that chick.
Called Shandra during We Live for Love because it was a sweet version, and because I knew she'd be stoked if I called her. And because that was the one song that didn't get distorted, imo, because it was too loud. At least during the first part of the concert, the sound was wayyyy too loud, and so some of it would just blur together.
And Pat mentioned both a summer tour and that she'd really love to do another album like True Love (I think that's the name of it...remember that I'm not up-to-date on all of my Pat facts). She asked Neil before she sang TL if they could do another one, and he said yes. So...it would be awesome to have new music from Pat, not gonna lie.
Oh, clothes. Neil was looking awfully good...he had on black pants and a white shirt (I feel like that sounds really plain, but it wasn't really...I'm just really bad at describing things properly). And Pat was dressed, as usual, in her normal all-black attire. Except her pants were like black with white pinstripes.
Oh, and random fact of the day: Sabine's husband is a huge fan of Pat. I know, right?
So...I have to get started on some of the homework I should have had done last night.
I'd have gotten it done, but I had to work 10 hours yesterday.
I requested Sunday (4/1) off because I have 15 pages of paper due on Monday, but apparently I'm not allowed to have time off to do my homework, because I work that day 12-6.30. So now I have to figure out how I'm going to get everything done on time. I'm pissed, to say the least. I could see it if I took every Sunday off, or if I was randomly taking days off all the time. Or if I was taking that Sunday off to sit on my ass and not do a damn thing.
I think it's REALLY cool that the only three people to get that day off are Jackie and Aaron, both of whom have second jobs now, and Kathy, the manager that does the schedule who is going to Illinois for the weekend to visit her family because Easter is the weekend after that.
I think it's REALLY awesome that the managers get to rotate and occasionally get a Sunday (or hell, even a Saturday!) off, and, because I'm the best cashier with fully open weekends, I HAVE to close on Saturday and work all day on Sunday.
No, that's not fair. I'm about ready to cry because I'm so overwhelmed, and instead of taking pity on me when I complain about it, they're giving me longer shifts and more hours.
4 more months. 4 more months. 4 more months. And then I don't have to deal with the bullshit there anymore.
