We've finished (I really have nothing else to say about it. it was exhausting and it's over. our stuff is currently sitting in Newburgh waiting to head for Chicago).
To celebrate, I went out to my favorite theater last night to see that movie with multiple vignettes about Paris (a little background, my sister went to see Wilco last night. I was a little sad, but it really was impossible for me to go, so I just ignored it the whole thing). When I got out I had two messages, but I was so tired, I didn't listen to them.
Today I decided it would be best to clean out my purse before heading on vacation. I have been throwing so many random found treasures in there while cleaning up, it was quite huge and unmanageable.
I dumped out my purse on the kitchen island and remembered I had messages to listen to. I put it on speaker phone. There was one from a family member, one from a friend, but the third one was a garbly scratchy one. It took me a while to remember, but usually when my sister goes to see a show I like, she calls me during a favorite song. I didn't quite catch this one, I could make out "i love ... I love" but that was all (What song was it Lauren? It's on the tip of my tounge). Anyway, this is really about the fourth message.
Phone: Next message, Thursday - [garbly, garbly, scratch, scratch] I want to lay a heavy head tonight [garbly] On a bed of California Stars [garble]...
I start to sniffle, Tim enters the kitchen, my eyes are fountains.
T: What is that noise? [his strange contorted face says please turn it off!]
Me: It's a song. sniffle [turn head to avoid eye contact with him]
T: It's a what? That's some crappy quality!
Me: It's a song, ok, it's just a song.
T: Are you crying? what's Wrong?
Me: It's the SONG!
T: OOOHHHH, did your sister leave you that message?
Me: YES [sniffle, sniffle, gasp]

Oh the first one was Jesus, Etc. I wasn't sure if I was going to get California Stars and that came on - you know to me its about New York. Then during the encore I turned to Dan and said 'my trifecta would be: Heavy Metal Drummer, California Stars, and What Light'. Well, I got two out of the three and called Evbo during his song, and you during yours! I was getting a little 'verclemped' during CS but somehow I was able to keep it together!
