my new favorite

Last night Ken and I went to a concert at the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle. I have seen the band — by my calculations — at least 25 times in my life. My first show was while I was in high school. One of my favorite things in the world is to bring a great picnic, sit in the grass & watch a show.

I went early to stand in line before the gate opened.  At first, I felt a little silly.  I’m not a kid anymore.  I couldn’t help but wonder, is waiting in line for a band something a grown woman should do? [Note: last week, we waited in a line for a movie about a wizard school, so…]

But then I thought, what else is there to do in the world, but get excited.  

We should all have things in our life that are worth: 

• Getting up early for
• Staying up late to see
• Driving a long way just to spend the day
• Paying too much to experience an expert’s work
• Losing your cool to make someone laugh
• Breaking something apart to put it back together as something new.
• Crying because it makes you so happy.
• Running home to tell someone about it.

Enjoy your life.  Have a great weekend.
