Wow, it's been quite a long time since I've written anything. It's actually kind of sad that I haven't had the urge to express any thoughts or share any exciting concerts. The last show I went to was last year to see The Damned. I hate that feeling of not having a show on the horizon. I should be use to it by now because I live in the midwest and many bands completely bypass Indianapolis, but it's my high in life. So I will be 41 tomorrow and I'm at a weird place in my life. The older me is fine being alone. The older me is less concerned about other people's opinions about me. It's a great place to finally be as much of my life has been gripping my self esteem and self worth by the balls. Within the last year I have regained my freedom, I have lost two dogs, and have gained another job. I finally have grown accustomed to just being me regardless if someone gives me a strange look if I'm talking to myself in the grocery aisle or making a James Bond reference. It sucks that most of us have to wait so long to finally feel comfortable in their own skin and to be fine with not having someone special in their life. In my younger years I felt so low and lonely if I wasn't dating someone. I wish my older self could have told my younger self that I needed to just chill. Just sit back and enjoy life and travel. I guess that's what your 40's are for. It's the time for self reflection and wishing you could possibly go back. It's hard to accept the fact that you can't go back, but it's easier to haves wishes for the future. It's fine if it happens, but it's also fine if I don't find love again. As I always say when people ask if I have a boyfriend, "No, I have a dog and cat."
I do have to share my first concert this year and the one that has been on my concert bucket list for ages. David Byrne! He played in Indianapolis, which I can't thank him enough for! The show was like a Broadway show, but I wouldn't expect anything less from him. The set was just amazing from the very construction of it before he played to the end. He played some Talking Heads songs of course and his own solo work. I was in awe of the choreography and his talented band. Everything was so precise, like a clockwork mouse. You just sat and wondered just how long it took to prepare for these dynamic shows. If you have the chance to ever see him, you must! You will leave in good spirits and with renewed hope for the world.
