Yesterday afternoon I went to Millenium Park to watch the Monster Piano Concert. It was free and outdoors so why not right? It was AMAZING!!! They had 10 Steinway grand pianos and 30 musicians. They had 2 people to a piano, and for a few tunes they had 3 people to a piano or all 30 out there at once. They played some really great tunes like Ride of the Valkyries, 1812 Overture, Hoe-Down from Rodeo, Carmen, William Tell Overture and The Stars and Stripes Forever. I have NEVER seen anything like that before and it was really really neat. Amazing musicians from Northwestern University...hello Prodigies...hello I want to drool on myself...sigh. Unbelievable.
In other news, I went out last night with Ashley one last time as she was in town for the weekend picking up her stuff from her apartment. We had a grand old time at a few bars last night, dancing and such. We went to this bar called Shenanigans. Really loud in there, but after a few drinks we didnt notice. There were two guys there that I swear had been drinking since noon. And they wouldnt leave us alone!!! They kept grinding up on us from behind and touching us. Ashley got her boobs felt up; her boyfriend almost punched the guy. We physically pushed them away from us and I put my fist in the one guys face to warn him off. Nothing..nada...didnt get it at all. Then another guy wanted to dance so I'm like ok fine. So we danced and he did the SAME thing!!! Ok guys, I 'll dance with you but I wont grind with someone that isnt my boyfriend. I'll dance with you if you ask politely and not just start grinding up on me, thinking I'll respond. I'm not a club slore, so if other girls are doing it, dont assume I will. And that guy also tried to kiss me and I moved my face so he got my cheek. Goddaaaaaaaaaamn, I just want to go out, have a good time with my girlfriends and not get felt up. Seriously, guys have no clue how to treat women these days. Treat me like a lady damnit and if you're lucky (which none of them ever will be since I'm attached) you'll be treated like a king from me.
End rant.
I did drunk blog, but I took it down. Not sure why. It was funny, at least to me. Oh and Liz, loved the Four Play joke!! haaaaa, I would have totally lost it!!
My knee is swelling up again. I fell on it when I was home in May again (god I know ok...I'm a klutz) and now its feeling all weird again. Huge sigh. I hate having a dysfunctional knee. I'm pretty sure it'll never be the same again.
School is picking up now with more papers and projects and such. Which is good because I was getting bored for awhile. I know, Im weird eh? Some people enjoy a slow pace...not me, I thrive on stress I think.
The Dave Matthews Band concert is on Saturday!! Woooooooooooo!! I'll be on the Amtrak to Miller Town to stay with EmmyLou and whoop it up. This is like the highlight of my summer usually. This year its tied with the rents meeting in August. But aaahh Dave...how you thrill me so. Spring sweet rhythm in my head....
The concert yesterday only fuels my desire to have a keyboard. I really want a piano but thats not practical until I get a house with a piano room. Yes I'm having a piano room. It will be massive and octagonal with floor-to-ceiling windows, wood flooring and rich colors. And it will double as a library where I can put all my books and such. But I want a keyboard now!! I miss playing a lot.
Congrats to Miss Emily for taking her first steps! How exciting!!! I cant wait to have babies....
