check another one off the list

last night i finally got to hear chris martin sing the scientist live to me from behind his piano. and it was everything i thought it could be, considering that i was in an arena filled with about a million people and he looked like an ant from where we were sitting, but besides all that it was perfection. it's impossible to hear any coldplay song and not think about the boy, and the great gift fiasco, but it's not like i could ever really forget any of that. as predicted lisa was able to make quick friends with the couple sitting behind us. moments after she explained that random people just feel the need to talk to her, the girl leaned down and started asking us questions. they then spent the rest of the night talking to us and even seemed a little sad when we said our goodbyes at the end of the concert. we laughed about it on the walk back to the car. she dropped me off, i made it home in time to get three hours of sleep before work, and i've spent the majority of this evening slipping in and out of consciousness. tomorrow's plan is v for vendetta, fingers crossed that goes off without a hitch.
