The Birthday Month Continues.....

Saturday

Got up early (but not as early as expected) because a little weekend project was planned - staining the back deck...on the hottest day of the year. Yeah, we are smart like that. It took for.ev.er. and its not even done yet....because we ran out of stain. Lovely. That is ok. It was hot, I was whipped and it was 3pm - couldn't take much more anyway. So off to the showers and going out for food - yeah, like I was gonna cook after all that. So, we got dressed and was headed out to Texas Roadhouse for some RIBS! So in the car, I was told that I had a little "bat in the cave" - well CRAP! Why do you tell me this stuff when I am in the car?! Well, I pull down the visor and open the vanity mirror and what do I see????? THIS!



Yeah, you are seeing that right........PRINCE TICKETS! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!!!!!! (a week early - see I told you its my birthday MONTH!). You should have seen the grin on my face - classic! I was completely excited and acting like a giddy school girl but dang I wasn't dressed appropriately for a Prince show - I mean, I just thought I was gonna get some ribs and come home. Luckily I did have a boobie shirt on but just not one I would have chosen to see His Royal Purpleness.

The show started late - like an hour late but let me tell ya it was well worth waiting every single minute! He started out with Purple Rain (and Patti the second song was Take me with U! - I soo thought about you and would have called but I didn't have my phone - cause I just thought I was gettin' ribs!). And guess who was on the stage playing right beside him....yep...WENDY! That girl rocks ya'll! Later in the the show he brings out Sheila E.! It was AWESOME!!!!!! He played for about 2 and half hours (and had just played a show at Macy's earlier) and then he was leaving to go across the street to First Ave to play ANOTHER show! Now, I know ya'll want to see pics and I would have soooooo loved to take them but you see up there on the tix - no cameras. Now that wouldn't have stopped me from trying BUT seeing as how I was surprised by this I couldn't plan properly. My phone has a camera but like I said - I didn't bring my phone cause I didn't know I would need it. Got home just before 1AM! I was completely whipped but still hyped up from the show!

And for the record there was not I repeat WAS NOT a bat in the cave!


Sunday

Well, so far it has started out...BUSY! Mr. Cheeky is off to Germany again this morning so had to get up at 6AM! Of course I had to call my sister and brag a little. Teenage daughter (who knew about the tickets but didn't tell.....she never keeps a good secret but she kept this one) wants me to take her and her friends shopping. I will probably drop them off and take the man child to see Transformers (if he wants to go). I need to keep myself moving today otherwise I am gonna crash cause I am still whipped from all of the events of Saturday (sore and sunburned from staining and just plain tired from the show).

Cheeky who is still singing some Prince.......(dedicated to you Patti)....

I can't disguise the pounding of my heart
It beats so strong
It's in your eyes what can I say
They turn me on.

I don't care where we go
I don't care what we do
I don't care pretty baby
Just take me with u.

Come on and touch the place in me
That's calling out your name
We want each other oh so much
Why must we play this game ?

Don't care where we go
I don't care what we do
I don't care pretty baby
Just take me with u.

I don't care if we spend the night at your mansion
I don't care if we spend the night on the town
All I want is 2 spend the night together
All I want is 2 spend the night in your arms.

To be around u is so-oh right
You're sheer perfection (thank u)
Drive me crazy, drive me all night
Just don't break up the connection.

I don't care where we go
I don't care what we do
I don't care pretty baby
Just take me with u.

I don't care where we go
I don't care what we do
I don't care pretty baby
Just take me with u.

Just take me with u
Oh won't u take me with u
Honey take me with u.
