I know that this might be totally morbid, sound absolutely horrible, and make no sense whatsoever, but I don't give a fuck- this tour made me want to live at a time when I wasn't sure if I still had any reason to. I was in a dark place just a few hours before this tour was announced, but once it was announced I felt a weight melt off of me and I had something to be happy and grateful for. I cannot wait until October 23rd- the day they are doing their show at The Complex in Salt Lake City.
I wrote a letter on here- that some of you may have read- that was addressed to The Griswolds, and most of it came out sounding like a cry for pity about the fact that I've never seen them in concert. Though I didn't mean for it to sound like that, it doesn't matter now that they are coming to Utah! I am now brainstorming ideas for gifts I should get them- if anybody has any ideas be sure to let me know. Right now, I'm thinking I might crochet some scarves or something for them- because it'll be cold in the fall- but I feel that may just seem really dumb to them and/or they'll never wear them. I'm stressing about this when it really isn't that amazingly important.
They announced this tour at 10am my time, and I was watching Orange Is The New Black when I got the notification about New Politics' tweet- yes, I have notifications turned on for a lot of bands/band members. This announcement caused me to go through something I've never gone through before: I had a panic attack because I was so happy. I get panic attacks a lot, but this one was different- the best way I can explain it is that usually I feel like I am drowning, but this time it felt like I was drowning in sunshine. It was actually an amazing moment for me, because I knew that I was just uncontrollably happy. Things are getting better.
