Best of Both Worlds.....

I can say, without a doubt, that Hannah Montana can not sing. Wanna know how I can say that? Because I went to her concert. Me, her, and 17,000 screaming girls. I called Ticketmaster 4 hours before the concert and was able to score 3 tickets on the second level diagonal to the back of the stage. They were actually not bad seats. We could see right on to the stage and we were right in front of the screen. We got to the Target Center at 4, because that's when the website said that Will Call opened. Except it didn't open until 5. The gates opened at 6. Lots of waiting. Worth it for the girls, not so much for me. They had a blast. $30 t-shirts, $4 bottles of water, a $10 plastic fake backstage pass.... YIKES! At least I got a deal on parking because we got there before event parking started.

Speaking of waiting, we got to the Mall of America at 8:30 yesterday to see the Jonas Brothers. We got our wristbands, but we has to wait in a little sectioned off area so we could get a good spot for the 4:00 concert. So, we sat until 1:30. Then they said we all had to stand up. So we stood for 3 hours to see a 15 minute concert. We were very, very close to the stage. But it was a lot of waiting, a lot of standing, and a lot of pushing. Pretty much after 1:30 you could not leave to go to the bathroom or anything. I did leave the sectioned off area three times- once at 9:00 to get coffee and donuts for breakfast, once to go the bathroom and see where it was so that the girls could go, and then I went to get lunch at 12:00. Pizza Hut. Yum. It was a very long day, but the girls had a blast. If I am not the best mom in the world, I don't know what else I could do to get the title.

Ok, me and ZickyZou are about to leave to pick up our new car. We got the very last automatic Ion Quad Coupe in the Twin Cities. It is storm grey, and does not have all of the features we hoped for. But it does have 0% financing for 6 years. You can't beat that.

I'm not very good...

at blogging consistently anymore. It's been about 3 weeks since I blogger last. I'm going to blame it on my new work schedule (8:00-4:30), zalyssa going to school on-line, my newly married status, oh, and I'm lazy.

Last week was United Way week at work. I won a $10 gift certificate to the deli by my work. Awesome. I also won a tea cup and saucer set. Not quite sure what is going to become of that.

Last Tuesday I took the day off to get some errands done. I went to the Social Security office to change my name. I also went to the credit union to update my account. Then I met a friend for lunch. She brought her baby, and he was sooo good that it almost made me think that I could handle one of my own. If I could get a guarantee that I could get a baby that easy going (and cute!) I'd be all in. Lunch was great. I love lunch at the Olive Garden.

Yesterday I watched the Gophers blow a 3 touchdown lead. Lets see what the Vikings can do today. I'm not feeling optimistic.

Any volunteers to come and clean my house? I am 100% caught up on laundry, but everything else is a cluttery mess. I should go get some of it down.
