Nothin' But a Good Time

Last night my friend the librarian and I went to see Def Leppard, Poison and Cheap Trick. I'm not that much of a Cheap Trick fan, but they put on a nice opener. I was really there for Poison and Def Leppard. My sister and I are shameless Poison and Rock of Love fans and so it was pure joy to see Bret Michaels jumping in the air and Big John, the bouncer from Rock of Love even came on stage a couple of times. They were really awesome and they played all of my favorite Poison songs. Then it was time for Def Leppard to come on stage and they stole the show. Be still my heart, I have loved Def Leppard since i was 13 going on 14 years old and they played Two Steps Behind acoustically and I was in some sort of Rock N Roll HEAVEN! There is nothing like hearing Pour Some Sugar On Me live in concert and the energy was great. We had lawn tickets and it was a lot of fun minus the lewd and drunk people behind us. But things like that are expected at rock concerts. I bought my sister and I matching Poison keychains. I didn't buy any Def Leppard stuff because I still have my Def Leppard Retro Active shirt that I bought when I was 13 going on 14 and I can still wear it!
This morning I woke up and I have lost most of my voice and I'm all stiff from jumping up and down and headbanging. I feel old! It was a really great time and it was a nice way to end a sh*t week at work.

This week will be a little crazy. I have Accounting Dept Bowling Night, a going away party for the cute intern and I leave for Kansas on Thursday to be in M's wedding. Plus I have a huge stack of books from the library to read.

By the way, Sunshine if you're reading this I miss you and I hope band camp is going well.
