He said he felt sad that I had originally had such horrible sex, but he’s an idiot. An OAR concert gets to me in a way no sex ever could.
I’m not saying sex sucks.
I’m not even saying I’ve ever had bad sex.
I’m saying I probably shouldn’t have compared the two. ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
It’s, essentially, a testament to the band, that if I had to choose between enjoyable sex and any time they play, I’d take the concert every single time.
In a previous post I mentioned I really didn’t take many pictures except with my friends prior to OAR coming onstage:
Aaaaaaand the video above the above picture is the only video I took that day (which is not visual perfection) because there, alone — I was just rocking the eff out — didn’t care who thought I was a dork, nothing, just happy to be with my favorite band and their amazing fans!
I was out, enjoying ME, (as much as my Fibro allowed).
Also in the news of my life…๐๐คฃ๐ค๐๐๐๐ฅฐ…
Sunday, June 23rd, I met a man who wouldn’t be the worst guy to marry. Or maybe not. I’m wrong all the time.
I opened up my heart to new opportunities.
I went on some very bad dates. I enjoyed them for the most part (because even the bad ones were hilarious), but at the end of the day/night/whatever you call it, last Sunday’s was hands down the best I’ve had in six years.
But I also met another guy who I have so much in common with and am happy to be spending time with. And maybe he’s why I’m wrong in the long run about the above mentioned date. Maybe I met the guy I’m going to marry on June 29th.๐๐๐คท
I know I’m doing things the way that is honest and good. But I did get the best hug tonight. And human contact, and good hugs, are so freaking great, right?!
Segues are weird.
These are the lyrics to O.A.R.’s song “All Because of You” (which they did not play during the June 6th show but the song IS on their new album, The Mighty): the lyrics will be in italics and my thoughts will not be in italics.
๐ถTake, take, take the little moment
Don’t, don‘t, don’t forget to hold ’em
Stay, stay, stay a little longer – take a moment to appreciate what you have with your significant other, holding your SO means a lot and it’s worth spending time on, don’t be so eager to leave
Two hearts beating on a sidewalk
Put your head on my shoulder – the universe is telling us what’s good between us, we don’t have to say anything as we walk together tonight, I want to be closer to you
Hold your hand when we say goodnight, and
Tell you how I’m gonna to make our dreams come true – I want to stay close to you, I’m so committed to this that I am going to work on dreams that we share
I made a promise in the morning breezes – in a moment, I promised myself, for you
You can have all the space you need, and
You know me better than you’ll ever need to prove – I’ll be good to you, because you have been so good to me
All because of you
All because of you
Don’t, don‘t, don’t know where the time went
Can we dance a little slower? – I want to wake up to you smiling, forever, why does time go faster around those we love, can we spend every second of our lives together without it flying by so fast that our bubble of incredible happiness pops?; let’s breathe together for as long as we can
We’re so good when we’re together – we make each other better
Let me hold you ’til we’re older – let’s do this
Hold your hand when we say goodnight, and
Tell you how I’m gonna to make our dreams come true
I made a promise in the morning breezes
You can have all the space you need, and
You know me better than you’ll ever need to prove
All because of you
da da da da da, da da da, da da da da da, da)
All because of you
(Da da da da da, da da da,
da da da da da, da da da, da da da da da, da)
It’s all becauseโฆ
Hold your hand when we say goodnight, and
Tell you how I’m gonna to make our dreams come true
I made a promise in the morning breezes
You can have all the space you need, and
You know me better than you’ll ever need to prove
All because of you
Learn to run when it’s hard to stand, – you’re worth every second of difficulty we go through and
Find the songs in everything you do – I will appreciate you with the purest and must dedicated love I haven’t yet given you
I never thought I’d find you in this life – I had given up on being truly happy until I found you
Broken shadows disappear tonight – you make everything feel safe and new
You’re the reason that all my dreams come true – everything good on my life?; it’s all because of you
(Da da da, da da da da da, da da da,
da da da da da, da da da, da da da da da, da)๐ถ
OR maybe the song’s just about how music is amazing, brings everyone together, and helps the world heal.
I just think it’s super romantic, and, after dissecting it so succinctly, I realize I’d have to write an essay about it to really do it justice.
I’m in trouble. I feel a storm brewing inside me, and it’s going to be something.
When I listened to this song the first twenty times I basically decided it was amazing and then beyond amazing and then wanted to dissect them because I want to probably make this my wedding song. Until they come out with their next and this my next favorite song.

I’ve heard it said that the weight of the world’s problems
Is enough to make the ball fall right through space
That it ain’t even worth it to live
With all that’s goin’ wrong
Well, let me just go down as saying
That I’m glad to be here
Here with all the same pain and laughs everybody knows
Some men think they’re born to be king
Maybe that’s true
But I think passing love around
Is all we were born to do
Let them build their kingdoms
Let them make the laws for this world to heed
‘Cause you and I make life worth living
Right here in each other’s arms -Michael McDonald (The Doobie Bros)
