wake up for once

I had a nice weekend!

On the way to the fish fry on Friday night, I listened to an Evanescence concert on 93X. I was so blown away that I went to Target immediately afterward and bought the CD. As far as I'm concerned, this is the album of the year. I cannot say enough about it. I also got the Chamber of Secrets DVD for fourteen dollars. (Take note: if you know you want to buy a movie, go to Target and get it the day it comes out. It's ridiculously cheap for about 48 hours.)

Did anyone else get totally overemotional while watching the season finale of Ed? Just me, then? Okay.

On Saturday morning I had band practice, and then we went to MaryElaine's for her (belated) birthday party. Much fun ensued. Kathy and I enjoyed the swings in the backyard. I tried to take a picture of Ryan, but he hid behind a post, so Kathy taunted him with bubbles and managed to get him out into the open. We ate strawberry cake while MaryElaine opened her presents, including a softball glove from me and Kathy, and then watched some of the Chamber of Secrets special features. Later, we went for a very long walk and came upon a park with a swing, where we watched the sunset. On the way home, MaryElaine discovered the "lake" of Lakeland (where they live), and joyfully called Royce to tell him about it. :) It was a fun day.

Yesterday was hot, hot, hot. I laid out for an hour in the afternoon. (It didn't make much difference, though.) Gandalf meowed at me, through the window, the entire time. Then I went to a production of Mendelssohn's Elijah at IPC. It was amazing. Myla had a solo and did a great job.

Did I mention that it's hot here? The high is 85 today. Excuse me, one week ago I had to take my sweater out of storage. Are we skipping spring entirely now? Good grief.

Links are not working for me (page cannot be displayed) - then again, no LJ graphics are working for me right now either. ::shrugs::

I did, and I'm man enough to admit it. I just knew that Ed had to end up with Carol, and when he did, I got all misty-eyed. :)

At least you weren't crying in the middle of the living room, wondering why this was affecting you so deeply since you watch the show about three times a year. And then your roommate didn't come home to find you surrounded by tissues. :)

awww HUG

[salemgirl.livejournal.com]

Awww.... yay! I missed the finale... but I've always hoped they'd end up together... :)

They led us to believe that he had chosen Frankie, until the last 5-10 seconds. The whole show was cool, because it started with that scene, then had a flashback 3 days into the past. They followed the timeline up to the present.

I don't watch Ed but I was wondering who he chose. BAaaah. to easy. I was hoping he'd chose the other one (Wade from Sliders!!)so chicky babe would have to chase Ed for a while.

I baught my Harry Potter immediately on Friday. My friend tried to get hers on Sat but they were sold out of the DVd at Target in Wolfchase.

I LOVE that CD. I wasn't plannign on goign to Beale Street Music Fest but I think i'm goign to go to see them :) I am so bummed I didn't know about the concert on 93X.

There are not the droids you are looking for
These are not the droids we are looking for
Move along.
Move along.

Heh. Couldn't resist!

Evanescence is on Sunday so I will begin making plans to go.

I've been trying to get a group together. I will work on some more people. :)

Doesn't she look so Jedi-ish with the hand thing? It was the first thing I thought of when I saw the picture.

[calypsobard.livejournal.com]

I didn't notice the hand but now that you mention it, very Jedi-ish. SUnday it is for Beale Street. WOO!

[laura8225.livejournal.com]

Sounds like you had a lot of fun! I like the pictures, especially the random one of your arm, showing your lack of tan. It made me laugh. I also like the Jedi Hermione icon! Yay for Harry Potter!

ED!
