Scars on 45 concert

[lar_laughs]

I am so thankful that my father said, "I don't know. This is Hailey. You should think about getting there early." If I hadn't followed his advice and the tugging in my gut that said that he was right, I would have ENTIRELY MISSED the Scars on 45 concert tonight.

Little venue. Not a lot of room. WRONG TIME PRINTED IN THE NEWSPAPER! They started playing at 7:49pm and NOT 9:30 like the paper said! I know the exact time because I was frantically texting R who was not able to make it because she was still putting her kids to bed.

This is a good lesson for me. (1) Don't listen to anything our little hometown paper says because HELLO, they can't even use COMMAS correctly and (2) Move to a larger city so that I can get to more larger concerts and have the possibility of having friends who don't have to put their kids to bed.

Not that I don't love being R's friend because she's amazing but I miss hanging out with people who don't have those sorts of attachments. Of course, I'm getting sort of old to want those kinds of friends. Most everyone my age is married and has kids. It's a fact of life. *sigh* Of course, those kids are getting older and older by the day.

So now that I can't hear out of my left ear (which is going to suck tomorrow!), I'm at home listening to Scars on 45 on Spotify!

I'm glad you had a good time :D What a sucky newspaper though.
I don't think you're 'too old' to want friends who don't have attachments. There are plenty of us out there without kids or spouses, and no plans to change that. Just a question of finding likeminded people :D

It really is a sucky, sucky newspaper. They pull stuff like this all the time so I shouldn't be surprised when it happens

I have so many likeminded friends online that I get mildly surprised when I look around at my Real Life and realize that I don't know any there! Since I spend most of my time online, though, that's where I want to keep you all. Where you can do the most good!

Awesome!!!! I think I know a song they sing... Are they British? LOL

About friends, I totally know what you mean. I have one completely awesome single friend who will never get married and never have kids.

...and then she moved away for work :( I was completely bummed. We go on vacations together and it's fun, but not the same.

Almost everyone my age is either married/with someone and/or has kids. These types of people are not interested in the same types of things I am. Or they don't have the time to do anything because of their kids. Or their significant other is a jealous asshole who thinks that single girls only want to go out to get men. LOL

It's hard being a single girl.

I always thought that being single was going to be simple... but it really isn't! *grins*


And yes, they are British! The accents tonight!!!!! So cool!!!! They love our little area so made a special trip this tour. It's sort of on the way they were going. One of these days, I'm going to be able to say that I saw them for $10 in a tiny little bar/restaurant and people will be amazed that they ever played somewhere so small! I really think they're going to make it big. They're that good!

You used to have a really awesome single friend that you could hang out with and not have to worry about getting kids put to bed.

So... when are you moving back here? Because I used to have a really awesome friend like that, too! ;)

I do miss being able to talk you into just about anything I came up with to do!

Odds are looking really good that I'll be heading to Boise. If you moved closer...

Well, I don't have a car at the moment, so I'm pretty tied to Mom & Dad's...
