I Didn't Die

Hey all, happy Thursday!

I think it's time to maybe make some design changes to this little blog of mine so I can get back to loving this piece of internet that I reside in. Soon.

Since I'm already here, I might as well tell you what I've been up to the past two weekends. When I wrote my last post, I was super excited to go to a concert the next day. I did not make it to the concert due to a miscalculation of the amount of alcohol I can handle on an almost empty stomach. I drank too much (1.5 cups) and proceeded to vom in the parking lot for hours. Awesome, I know. Won't be doing that again.

I did learn my lesson though: one piece of pizza and some pretzels and hummus doesn't stand a chance against a beer-vodka-lemonade cocktail. Not. A. Chance.

That lesson came in handy for the Dierks Bentley concert we went to on Sunday night because I didn't die this time! I really took it easy because A. the thought of alcohol still made me shudder and B. because Kristo brought bilgewater Bud Light Lime to drink. EW.

Highlight reel:

+ NOT DYING

+ pasta salad

+ a $10 Walmart grill that got the job done (once the boys figured out how to get it to stay lit)

+ borrowing angry orchard from our fellow tailgaters

+ and, of course, Dierks Bentley's arm muscles. and face. and voice.

Lowlight reel:

- rubber "hamburgers"

- being cold (WHY is it still 40 degrees in May?!)

- getting home at 1 am on a work night

So my first country concert was a success. Can't wait until we see Tim McGraw next month!

Means More Rock

Happy Friday, all!

Are you surprised I didn't post this week? Yeah, me either.


Words can't express how happy I am that today is Friday. I 've been waiting for this weekend forever. I haven't had to take medicine for my wisdom tooth pain all week and I can finally drink again. Not that I ever drink that much, but you always want what you can't have. After work today, I'm getting my nails done with my sister and Courtney and then we're gonna chill all night. And maybe play some cards against humanity?!

Tomorrow is the unofficial start of the Philly Summer concert season and we have tickets to MMRBQ (rock music festival hosted by our local station). WMMR Means. More. Rock. Anyway, the lineup for the concert is Fuel, Dropkick Murphys, Redlight King, Volbeat, Jason Bonham's Led Zeppelin Experience, the Jim Bruer Band, and Rob Zombie as the headliner. I'm very excited to break out the dark eyeliner tomorrow as I only do for bar nights and rock concerts.

Court and I ordered concert plugs from Amazon because that's what good little future audiologists do to protect they're hearing. They only block the harmful noises, while keeping speech and music clear. AND it means we won't have ringing ears for the next three days, while our boyfriends continue to go deaf and say "WHAT" every two seconds. Our bosses will be proud.

Have a good weekend everyone and remember to tell your mom that you love her!
