bob dylan

So it worked all out! I took Amanda for her birthday to the Bob Dylan and His Band concert in Long Beach. We actually got to stand in the first row in front of the stage... I would have loved to take someone else special to me to this concert but you know how things work out...always different from what we think or wish. yeah. so that was amazingly beautiful. A big part of the joy and excitement came certainly from making this surprise. Amanda totally didn't know where we were going and I made this whole story up about how I was gonna take her to San Diego and lalala, maybe a ship ride, maybe the aquarium, maybe sth else? It was so great. Man, she really really didn't know where we were going. Then, the Convention Center in Long Beach happens to have whales and fish painted on the whales so she believed it was in fact the aquarium but she was wondering what in the hell all those people were doing who were sitting in line in front of it...
So i was going to take her to dinner first, as soon as I got the tickets, but on the way to find a restaurant she spied an advertisment for the concert and started screaming and I almost peed in my pants because I really needed to find a bathroom and us laughing like crazy really didn't help.... The concert was am-azing. Really awesomely great. I am so happy it all worked out....
First I didn't find my bank card which I needed to pick the tickets up at will call and then my sister's apartment was locked and the keys to the car where in there but I happened to have a copy of the key (which I forgot since I made it months and months ago, but oh, how clever that was!) and so we could finally hit the road. Her gorgeous boyfriend Noah drove us to Santa Monica and all in all it was a wonderful day that we started by hiking up Runyon Canyon and I love my life.
(pics will come later, blogger doesn't show the pick upload link thing right now..., but trust me, it was so amazing!!!!!)
