Quick rundown, because I don't really want to be online very long, but I feel bad that I haven't made a single update in two weeks.
1) Honors/Commencement ceremonies are over! I am officially OUT of school. I have been a bum around the house and it is wonderful.
2) Graduation party last Sunday. Eh... But money is good. I needed that. ;)
3) Flying out to Texas on Saturday for three months. Wow...
4)
U2
Continental Airlines Arena
Last night
Absolutely, positively, without a doubt the GREATEST musical experience of my life. There are no words. Simply inspiring and amazing and spiritual and incredible and U2 have killed me.
And they did OLD stuff. DEEP album cuts from Boy, even! AAAAH!!

Oh, and by the by...I didn't have enough paper to write all that down, so the majority of the setlist was scribbled all over the back of my left hand. The faint markings are still there. :)
And I get to do it aaaaall over again tonight! Woooooohooo! I'm hoping they switch some things up a bit. I know they are trite songs, but I do want to hear them do "With or Without You" and "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For". I mean, obviously there are a LOT of other songs I want them to do, but those two are the quintessential classics and the only U2 songs to hit #1 on the Singles Charts in the U.S. BUT I AM IN NO WAY COMPLAINING! The show was beyond fantastic and perfect the way it was. But I would like to hear those two tonight. But if I don't, not a big deal. ;)
Okay, time to shower and eat breakfast and whatnot. *bounces!*
