Hanging

A trip to the Fillmore after work last night to pickup a ticket to see Morrissey this evening turned into a four hour long session on the bar stool at City Grille. Today I am feeling rather sluggish. I grabbed some chocolate milk and a pair of donuts when I got in this morning and washed them down with a couple of ibuprofen. So far, all I want to do is go back to bed. I don't feel terrible, just wrung out and tired. I'll definitely need to take a nap tonight before I head out for the show. I met a fellow at my sister's fiancee's Derby party on Saturday who had seen him play a couple of years back down in the Springs. He said it was a really great show and that the room was filled with good looking gay guys and Mexicans. I decided then that if I could get a ticket without paying the Ticketmaster fee that I would go. Against Me was playing last night, so the box office was open and I was able to save the ten extra bucks it would have cost to pay online. I don't think I've heard any of his solo stuff since the days of Viva Hate, so I'm not expecting to recognize many of the tunes. Still, The Smiths have been a huge part of my life's soundtrack, and I am optimistic that it will be worthwhile to get the chance to see him.
