Now Playing: "867-5309/Jenny" by Tommy Tutone

I've found a burst of energy this morning. So I wanted to sit at the computer and update the blog. If you find typing errors, well, my fingers aren't following my brain, so bear with me.

Last night DH and I had a special evening out. Yes, I know you are thinking "Huh? While she's sick?". The answer is yes. Knowing that we had purchased tickets to see Jim Brickman at the Calvin in N'ton almost 2 months ago, and they were spectacular seats, I didn't eat for 2 days. You got that right; in order to feel somewhat human, I didn't eat for over 50 hours, nothing except water. If there is nothing in the stomach, it can't revolt, right? Wearing on my most comfortable pants, and sitting through a concert wasn't easy, but I enjoy listening to this man play piano so much, that I decided I wasn't letting $40 per seat tickets go to waste. And I'm glad I didn't. During the concert, Jim always asks people to write out questions for him to answer on a piece of paper included in the program. So, DH and I did. They pick out about 5 questions to read, and mine was one of them. My question to him was to ask him to play some of the Sesame Street songs he had written prior to his current career. This might sound like a strange request, but he used to write commercial jingles to help pay the bills, and he mentioned at the beginning of the concert that he had written a few songs for Sesame Street. Being the Mom of 3 and 6 year old boys, AND having watched the very first episode of Sesame Street over 35 years ago, I just had to ask. The really cool thing about all this is that if he read your question (actually, his singer, Anne Cochran read the questions; she has a spectacular voice), you would win a copy of his new Christmas CD. Well, I will have one on the way to me in the mail. DH is happy, as he doesn't have to listen to me asking for it for Christmas now. :)
We also had the chance to meet Jim Brickman after the concert. He's a very nice person, who actually isn't much taller than I am. I enjoyed the entire evening, and once home, ate a cup of soup, much to my mother's delight, when she found that out this morning. We'll see how I feel later today!

Now I'm going back to the couch; it's calling.
