Ticket angst

It never gets any easier. No matter how many times you do it. You want the tickets, you don't want the angst that goes hand in hand with trying to get the tickets. Because no matter what you say, 'in the door' just doesn't cut it. Who are these people who are happy, truly happy, with 'in the door' tickets? They are either insane or must never have been up close. Because once you are up close, you can never go back. You are spoiled for all eternity. Once you've locked eyes with those eyes, it's all over.
So. We will try for our tickets tomorrow. If we get them, we do. If we don't, it will be ok. It will be meant to be, and we will not go. I have no business right now flitting off to Pittsburgh anyway.
Ideally, someone would just anonymously send us the 'right' tickets. They would just appear. As a mark of gratitude for all these long years of service to the cause. This time tomorrow we will know...

I love this photo. He's looking at me, she's looking at him, and on my camera screen is the actual shot of them I took just seconds before. I just think it's really neat.
