Not much, but a concert notification!

Sadly, the title doesn't translate into a date to a concert.  In fact, it means some online somebody knew more about the music I enjoy to mention (albeit from a post I gave him) that my favorite alternative country musician is in KC in the next two weeks.  I got tickets for me and my daughter.  We can't wait.

Of course, I can't share that I'm going to the concert to this guy.  In fact, I'm not sure if I'm cut out for this kind of interaction with the human race.  It's weird, takes time, initiative (and in some cases that initiative is for naught) and patience.  Maybe the cool kidz (read: 18 - 35 y/o) don't have to be so patient, but now that I'm in middle age (yes, I said it), the patience it takes to find one with which you'd give up an hour for coffee is greater.

One guy who I'd exchanged a few back & forths with suggested he'd like me to contact him if I'm free on a Friday or Saturday night.  My first thought was why on earth I'd waste an evening with someone I hadn't ever met; is he wack?  One of my girlfriends took it a bit differently saying, "he wants you to ask him out; is he wack?"  Two rankings of "wack" means I didn't follow up with him. He eventually posted, "so, what are some of your favorite movies?" to which I haven't responded.  Hope he isn't holding his breath.
