Owl City & Cancelled Flights

23 Jun

I didn't take this picture, but its the only one I could find on flickr from that night.

On Saturday, I got to go see Owl City in concert at Pier Six in Baltimore. It was pretty much amazing and I really enjoyed myself. Adam Young is just as awesome in concert as he is on his recordings. Plus, his cute lyrics and personality make me smile. He kept stopping to say, “Baltimore, youre so cuuuuuuuute.” I’m pretty sure he says that everywhere he goes, but I’m going to pretend he doesn’t.

Here's the only picture I took with my cellphone.. Its blurry and crappy.

The venue was right on the water, on pier six, which I thought was pretty cool. The first band was Unwed Sailor, which was an instrumental rock band? I thought they were pretty good, but I wasn’t really in the mood to listen to it, so I sent James to fetch me a beer to keep me occupied. The second band was Mat Kearny, which was like a generic Jack Johnson or John Mayer to me. I wasn’t really digging it and drank another beer and just kinda tuned him out.

Finally Owl City came on, and it was the best ever. It was all colorful with the lights and then sometimes there were projected snowflakes and other shapes on the ceiling above. He was really cute and I enjoyed the concert. My only complaint, is that I wish I had more time to learn the lyrics to the songs on his new album so I could sing along. I also wish he played a couple more of his older songs like Hot Air Balloon because that would’ve made my day.  Overall, I was happy. ^_^

 

Now, I am home in South Carolina. It took me awhile to get here on Tuesday as one of my connecting flights was canceled, so I had to go through hoops and bounds to get home. Thanks Delta for ruining my day! /This is me waving the middle finger at you! I’ll write more about that later.

I’m enjoying my time at home and I’m looking forward to the beach this weekend. I didn’t bring my camera cable, so I won’t be able to upload any new pictures until I get home, unless I take some with my crappy blackberry.

Rawr!

Busy Bee

Since I have motivation to post, going to do that now while its here. I’ve been feeling good this week and only had one bad day, which was yesterday. I just hope

I have a few busy days ahead. Going to the Owl City concert tonight at the Pier Six Pavilion down by the harbor. I convinced James to come along with me so I didn’t have to go alone, so I’m hoping it’ll be fun and worth it. I just hope it doesn’t rain or anything.

I need to pack for my trip to South Carolina and get everything ready and not wait until the last minute. I was sitting outside yesterday and wrote up a little list with crappy doodles. Then my hand cramped up and I ran out of beer, so I didn’t finish my list. Either way, I have lots to do before Tuesday, but I’m looking forward to my trip.

See, I told you my doodles were crappy. I don’t really know how to draw unless I’m looking at something for reference. I fail. I’d rather take somewhat artsy pictures of the new shoes I can’t wear yet because of the gashes they put into the back of my heels when I first wore them.

I look forward to wearing them.. pain free. I guess that’s what I get for wearing nothing but flip flops or clogs for the past eight years. Oops. WHO KNEW?!

Peace out girl scouts! I’ll update later this week on how the concert went. ^_^
