Some Good News!

I got an email yesterday from the Fox Theatre in Atlanta/Ticketmaster. It was for a ticket presale for Carlos Mencia. And it just happens to fall on our wedding anniversary. I said, "Hmmm." I dug around a little further and then emailed Jen, asking her if she'd like to see a couple of shows in Atlanta for an anniversary weekend. And she seemed delighted by the idea!

So, our fifth wedding anniversary is coming up in early September. After that date, we'll be heading toward six years of marriage together! These days, that's not too shabby. And to celebrate our anniversary weekend, we'll be heading to Atlanta, where we'll be staying in the Renaissance Atlanta Hotel Downtown (a Marriott hotel that's kind of swanky). That Friday night, we'll be seeing a very late show at the Fox Theatre (.2 miles from the hotel) featuring ... Kathy Griffin! We really like her Bravo shows. We have balcony seats for that, as I think the show tickets had been on sale for a few days. But Jen swears these balcony seats will be better than the seats she had for the Tori Amos concert she went to a while back. Then, the next night, on our anniversary, we'll have pretty awesome seats to see Carlos Mencia, a comedian we both love! The seats will be front center midway back in the orchestra section. I got such good seats because of this presale special I was offered, complete with a password to purchase them! I imagine this will sell out, so I feel good about us landing such great seats. I don't know what else we'll do while we are there in Atlanta, but it might be nice to visit the great High Museum, which Jen's never been to! We're really looking forward to this weekend.

Today, I'm not going to blog about anything negative. I'm not even going to blog about anything else. I am going to post another music video though. This one's in honor of Jen. See, she and I have wildly different musical tastes. Suffice it to say, she HATES most of the music I listen to (Disturbed? No way, for her...), and she tends to be stuck in the '80s much of the time. But that's OK, as I sometimes get nostalgic for '80s music too. So, today's video is "It's My Life," by Talk Talk. Very different from the stuff I have been posting. I hope you enjoy, and that everyone has a fabulous day!

I, too, will try to not blog negatively.  This may mean I'll be a little quiet for a while... and just comment.

That sounds like an awesome anniversary weekend.  Unfortunately, after 26 years (I was a child bride, ok?...) the celebrations get a little quieter.

Happy Anniversary! Sounds like fun. I love Atlanta. Of course, that's partially because of all the GWTW stuff you can do there!

Uh, yeah! I've eaten at Aunt Pitty Pat's Porch! I've done TONS of GWTW stuff in Atlanta. You would die there! I'll drag Scott to the Margaret Mitchell museum or something. hehe

You are tooooooo sweet!!! And thanks for the video. Tomorrow you should post Gwen Stefani's version of that song and then ask your readers which version they think is better. I LOVE the original, but Gwen's put a terrific much-more-upbeat spin on it, and it's so infectious, I adore it!
