Yes, please.

I'm crazy excited about a little.teeny.tiny.thing that's coming up for me and theHotness.

See, at the end of this month, we will be celebrating our 6th wedding anny. And to be perfectly honest, I love piling up these years together. We are just shy of it being a decade since we first started dating!

I plan on professing my ridiculous love and affection for this boy soon.ish. But for now, the immediate plans:

He surprised me with tickets to the new U2 tour around... my birthday? Or something like that. This will be my second time to see them in concert-- I was very pregnant with James and was on bed.rest the last time. After much begging, my doctor allowed me to go... I jumped, danced, screamed like a crazed.teenager... except a knocked up one who contracted the whole time. It was great. I can't wait to experience it again. The concert is this Wednesday night!


I fell in love with their music in the sixth grade. While my daddy spoon fed me Cat Stevens and The Beatles, Danyelle was fast at work rocking my world with The Indigo Girls and U2. All that messy right.of.passage.teenangst.stuff worked out through brilliant music. I can remember waking up at 3:30am to listen to U2's Live in Sarajevo concert. I detached my stereo speakers and pulled then under the covers with me. You could here bombs going off in the background behind the music. Powerful. And then came the activism...


Now? I'm married to theHotness. He's what dreams are made of and deep into the business of spoiling his little.wife. :) To sweeten this deal, he surprised me by booking us a suite at Hotel Derek there in Houston. I've always wanted to stay there. SUCH a treat for me.




We plan on eating at a Tapas Restaurant before the concert... then maybe martinis afterward. We'll see. Either way, I hope we come home to a view of Houston's beautiful skyline lit up against an inky Black. *Magics*

We are so tickled to be getting away. I plan on flirting and soaking up all his attention... :) So here's to an early little anniversary rendezvous!


Peace, love, and The Edge.
