I saw Ben Folds! Bill and Dan and I went to see his show at the LC on Saturday night.
It was awesome! Because I am old, I got kind of annoyed about having to wait in a long line in the cold, and about not having a good view (at first) and about people stepping all over me and squeezing in front of me and generally being dicks. However, I got over all that within about the first 3 minutes of the show.
The last time I saw Ben Folds he was with the Five, and it was ten years ago which means I was 16; it was my senior year of high school. I think it's a rare thing to like an artist and be excited about their concert just as much when you're 26 as when you were 16. I literally grew up listening to Ben Folds. I was so happy to able to experience the concert with Bill and with Dan, who I think loves BF as much as I do. :)
On a semi-related note, on the morning of the show I got tickets for a Decemberists concert in June. Awesome! I am already totally looking forward to it, even though it's more than 3 months away. They are apparently coming out with a new album in March so hopefully that will tide me over.

Love and infectious disease is in the air...
This year for Valentine's Day I got some lovely purple tulips, a nice card, and the most absolutely vicious, unrelenting stomach bug that has ever existed. I guess I shouldn't go into any grody details here on my public blog, and yet I want to convey to you how truly sick I was. I'll just say that I lost a full seven and a half pounds in twenty four hours. I seriously wanted to die. I haven't been that sick in forever. Saturday and Sunday (today) my stomach felt better but I'm so dehydrated and underfed that my heart's beating all crazy and I can barely stand up. We had to cancel our Valentine's plans to cook dinner and make cupcakes (CUPCAKES!). That blows.
In other news, I bought myself a new pair of sneakers online today. I dunno. That's all I got. What's up with you?

Snacks!
I just spent a long time looking up information on strawberry Twinkies (RIP). I was originally looking up info on crispy M&Ms, but anyway....I came across two OTHER discontinued junk foods which I had totally forgotten about: Tato Skins chips, and Keebler Magic Middles cookies. I would KILL for a bag of either one of these snacks; they were so good. Seriously. Magic Middles. I don't know what else to say.
I'm also really craving a Twinkie now.
