Re the texting ... I often see young kids on the cell phone throughout the show, and more often than not, more interested in horsing around and getting a facebook photo of themselves there than they are in the actual music.

My dad asked me if I was depressed and I said not really depressed but just in deep thought...I miss her, as I'm sure you miss your mom...but life goes on and so do we...<br />Sounds like a lovely time you had and bravo for you that you could do all that alone! Takes a strong woman to go out alone- most of us need the "crutch" of company in some form (ie CELL PHONE) in order to be alone...wouldn't it be nice if they banned cell phone usage in such events? Especially when it takes away from other's enjoyment. <br />I've never heard of this artist, but will check her out online! <br />Have a super day my friend!Skogkjerringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07269245867852737707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6805054219581359150.post-36268000214905304942010-06-17T00:22:36.989-05:002010-06-17T00:22:36.989-05:00Glad you had such a fabulous time.

I'm not sure I would have. Although, I go to the movies by myself and other places, but I can never bring myself to go to a nice restaurant alone. It's not the driving alone that would bother me. It would be going somewhere that you usually think of as something that you would do with someone else that it's hard for me to get past.
