I've had a really busy month. At the begining of October Bill and I went to see Morrissey at the Orpheum - I managed to get 5th row, center seats so we were really psyched! The seats were great, we could see individual beads of sweat on Mr. Hunky's forehead. Problem was, there was a guy in front of us who was about 7 feet tall. Now, I know it's not his fault, and being with Bill who's no midget at 6'5" I know how difficult it can be to be extra-tall in this world. With that said, I found my self being soooo annoyed all night that this guy was blocking my view, and most of my memory of the evening was of the back of his shirt. *sigh* Luckily I got the tickets for 1/2 price on eBay a few days before the show. Such a deal...
Anyway. Mr. Hunky was great. I'm a very new fan, I picked up his new album back in June and just fell in love with him. These days I am exploring earlier Morrissey CDs and lately The Smiths. I've really grown to love the Smiths, notably their songs have this almost cheery, poppy beat to them but the lyrics are sooooo morbid like "and if a double decker bus/killed crashes into us/ to die by yourside/ is such a heavenly way to die". How can you not love it?
In other news, after watching the debates I am now full-blown on the Kerry bandwagon. So much so, that I am volunteering for MoveOn. I'm a team leader in my New Hampshire town, and I'm incharge of organizing my volunteers to do door-to-door and phone canvassing. It's hard work! But, currently Kerry has a very slight lead, so lets hope our efforts are paying off.
I'm friggin' exhausted. I've been throwing myself into this MoveOn stuff full bore, and in addition to some work stuff I have literally been up until 2-4 am every single night for the last 10 days (and up at 9 to go to work). I am soooooo beat I think I am going to fall on my face.
12 more days. Must keep pushing.
