JT

aka Justin Timberlake

I went to see him in concert last night in Chicago. Now I don't have a whole lot in common with screaming high school girls (and some boys) but the concert was good. It helps that he is a cutie, he can really sing, and he can really sing AND dance at the same time. The local po-po seemed to be clueless that so many people were going to be at this concert. The main parking lot was full and they were haphazardly directing people to an overflow lot across the street. There were NO signs telling you anything but we ended up not having to pay the $15 for parking.

Duane got a good deal on the tickets on Ebay, but made a strategic error. He asked a very nice friend of mine to pick up the tickets yesterday since they had to be picked up by 5. I went to her house to pick them up (in Chicago) and ended up taking about 1.5 hours to get back to the Allstate Arena (normally a 30 minute trip). We missed the opening act (Pink), but got there right when JT started.

Tonight I am going to see Ok Go (you know those guys that do the dance routine on treadmills) in town and the tickets are free. It could go either way (fun or not fun), but I am going with Duane (who is usually fun).

The weekend turned out pretty well. We got the kitties vaccinated Saturday morning (although Mister Kitty's vaccination made him sick :( We saw butterflies and moths with my nieces and nephew, and had a great dinner at my parent's house celebrating our birthdays. Sunday was a veg out day. We spent a bunch of money at Target stocking up on the usual things.
