Music Mondays (On a Tuesday)

These 4 day weekends are really messing with me ya'll! Someone else tell me that happens to you? I've been thinking it's Monday all day today, but fail.....it's Tuesday - but that's ok it's one more day closer to Friday! And that is always a good thing.
I recently came across Miss Angie's Blog and I'm really loving her Music Monday's linkup. I love music, it's my drug of choice, my life line and as cheesy as it sounds has lifted me out of some pretty low points in life.

One of my most favorite songs right now is from my favorite lady, Tristan Prettyman called Second Chance. I've said it before, and I'll probably say it a million times again, if you haven't listened to her, you have NO idea what you are missing. I adore her and her new album, which is influenced on her breakup with singer Jason Mraz. It's heartbreaking, and raw and so so beautiful.




I've thrown away the postcards
And all the pictures I had kept
I didn't even burn them
I didn't think you deserve that much respect
How does it feel to be cut off?
I lock the door and throw away the key
Letting go has never felt so easy
The best thing that never happened to me

Don't go to tell me you're not trying
When you try to get me back
I'm not so sure you even knew
What you had

How many times will you get it wrong
Before you get it right, oh right, oh right
You have my love in your hands
But I'm taking it back
Because it's not what I need
And you already got your second chance
And you already got your second chance

I'm not looking for reaction
I'm not up for any more requests
You've lost my interest
I'm sure you probably good have guessed
Did you think that we could be friends
You better learn how to be a good friend first
The only way for you to hold me
Always seemed to be behind closed doors

Don't go to tell me you're not trying
When you try to get me back
I'm not so sure you even knew
What you had

How many times will you get it wrong
Before you get it right, oh right, oh right
You have my love in your hands
But I'm taking it back
Because it's not what I need
And you already got your second chance
And you already got your second chance

I don't feel anything, anymore
I don't feel anything, anymore
I don't feel anything, anymore
Anymore, anymore, anymore

Our first night out

A few weeks ago....ok who am I kidding - more like a month ago, The H and I had our first real official night out together without the babe. Yes she's 2 1/2, and yes I know that sounds out right CRAZY, but it's true! We've been to the occasional wedding without her, and even out for a few hours without her, but never a full fledged night out - which included dinner, drinks and some fun! 


He surprised me with tickets to see Green Days "American Idiot" at the Merriam Theatre in Philadelphia. We had such a great time!!! We went with The H's-niece and soon to be husband, and my SIL. What great company, we laughed snd laughed and truly had so much fun!
While I'm not a die hard GD fan, I've always liked their music over the years, and I've heard this show was amazing! We started off the night with Dinner at a little Italian restaurant called Maggiano's. the food was AMAZING! As was the atmosphere. Quiet and cozy. We would absolutely go back! Then time for the show. 
I'm ashamed to say I haven't seen an off broadway or broadway play, we'll ever! Sure I've been to our local playhouse, which is great, but honestly the two can't even compare! 


The show was really great, with an awesome cast, they played all the hits and more. I was honestly sad when it was over! 

We really had such a great time, and are already looking at what show/shows we are going to see next., hmmm.....Wicked, Avenue Q - the possibilities are endless!!!! 

So readers, tell me what are some of you're favorite shows?

Trying to be funny, but I really wanna cry



After what seems like 4 months of constant colds, flus, stomach bugs - and yet again another round of the flu, this girl wants to curl up in the fetal position and cry. I would settle for a nice ten hours of sleep though at this point, is that too much to ask??!!
