Question. When are you too old to buy general tickets and stand close to the speakers? I love concerts and have attended many in my college days - there was many a crowd surfing, swaying and even catching a drum stick at warped tour. However, the East Bay has shown me the dark, smokey side of concerts and I wonder if it's time to sit in the actual seats or listen from afar. Hmm, maybe I'll wait till middle age. I just can't resist moving my feet and trying to make eye contact with the lead singer.
Oddly enough, I always look forward to MLK Jr. weekend. I know I will get to eat anything I want and I'll be able to spend it with Jared. There's always climbing at Castle Rock and there's always a corn dog waiting for me at the Santa Cruz Boardwalk. This year I was a bit under the weather so I was on belay duty while Jared climbed his heart out. After the morning workout J and I ventured on the windy road to SC. As I ate my corn dog on the beach I was so giddy that it was January and kids were playing in the water and J was wearing a t-shirt. After a stroll down the pier and a huge burrito downtown, I was ready for my Penny ice cream. Oh, this must be one of my favorite traditions. Here's to many more years of climbing and corn dogs!
