spoonful of sugar

My neck is all crooked and wrenched. I've no idea what I did to it, but I'm suspecting that it has something to do with the way that I sleep.

So, now I sit here with my brother's ancient heating pad and Mary Poppins on the VCR. I'd forgotten that my mother bought me this tape, a very nice surprise indeed.

Water and water and more water, again.

*head explodey*

I had tickets for the October 4th show, in NYC, for Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. As all of you well know, I am obsessed with this man and his music. I was also quite pleased to have tickets to his show on the day before my birthday.

However, due to the events of September 11th, the show was postponed. Minor head explodey, until I got word of rescheduled events.

Flash forward to now.

I'm horrible with dates and times. I was under the assumption (and don't ask me why) that the new show was scheduled for the 5th of May. Well. To make a long story short. It's not.

It's scheduled for the 2nd and 3rd of May. The 2nd is on a work day (I was hoping to not take time off for this) and the 3rd is the date of the Philadelphia Belle and Sebastian show that I already hold tickets for.

GAH!

Guess I'll be taking off on the 2nd.

I've just now emailed the customer service department of Ticketbastard to get information on what I should do with my dated-for-the-original-show tickets.

*cry*

In spite of me

Last night I told a stranger all about you
They smiled patiently with disbelief
I always knew you would succeed no matter what you tried
And I know you did it all
in spite of me
Still I'm proud to have know you for the short time that I did
Glad to have been a step up on your way
Proud to be part of your illustrious career
And I know you did it all
in spite of me
In spite of me
Late last night I saw you in my living room
You seemed so close but yet so cold
For a long time I thought that you'd be coming back to me
Those kind of thoughts can be so cruel
So cruel
And I know you did it all
in spite of me
In spite of me
