Ahhhhhh . . . I spent some time with my dear Morrissey this Tuesday night. I only bawled like a baby through the first two songs, unlike when I saw him in 2007 and didn't really get a grip until about song number five. My friend Katie was kind and only made fun of me a little. (The guy on the other side of her had higher pitched screams than I). He did mainly new stuff, a few older songs peppered in like Ask Me, This Charming Man and of course, How Soon is Now. My very favorite song he sung to me was The Death of a Disco Dancer. This is just the most awesome song and to have him do it was a treat that I savored and I may have squeezed out a tear or two during that one, also. We saw him at the Midland which was is fabulous. We parked across the street for $2, walked right in about an hour before the show started, bought shirts and had a beer or two while enjoying the gorgeous architecture. Brendan and his friend had a blast. The staff of the Midland were great and let me know, hey, your boy was up here walking around. That's the beauty of having a child with giant hair; it's hard for him to hide. I hope Morrissey keeps up his two year appearance streak in KC. If not, I'll just have to make arrangements to go to him, I suppose. Am I over the top about my affection for him? You bet, and happy about it!!!! (Photo found here)

Morrissey
I don't usually post random thoughts or feelings, but I am so excited; I just printed out my Morrissey tickets and am going on April 7. When I was 16, I dreamt of having a son someday and naming him Morrissey. I actually ended up having two sons, neither of whom are named Morrissey. This fact, however, does not change the intense love I have for Morrissey and I have already warned my friend Katie that I will be sobbing and screaming through the first three or four songs at least. When I saw him with Brendan in 2007, he told all of his friends that I cried, lip synch and screamed through the entire concert. I think he was exaggerating.
UPDATE: Brendan read this and is wondering why I didn't name him Morrissey. He said that his first legal action as an 18 year old will be to change his name to Morrissey. Hopefully, he will outgrow this thought, just as I outgrew the thought to name him Morrissey in the first place. Stay tuned.
