tvordljApparently the announced line up is:
Sloan
Alice
Kanye
Stones
Does it make sense to you that a rapper would be on right before the Stones? Isn't that last act the one that's supposed to wind up the crowd for the main act? Never understood why they got him as part of the lineup anyway. Ok to draw in the kids but most of them aren't going to pay 120 bucks that they wouldn't otherwise spend just to see Kanye. Are they? Maybe they want to make sure that fewer people don't just leave after Sloan and Kanye and the audience would be more of us old wrinklies for Alice and Mick. lol Ah well.
I found two dimes on the night table this morning. One i am pretty sure i'd seen there for a few weeks actually and just kept forgetting to take it to the jar of change i keep in the kitchen. The other one, don't remember seeing it before. Dimes. One for Nan and one for Dad i guess :)
Hmm i don't think i ever told the story about the dimes did i? Some on my flist will know it because my sister wrote about it. It's all about "signs", like Ryan, wearing one of Dad's old suits, finding that electrical connector in the pocket the day after he passed. My maternal grandmother, my Nan, used to carry a dime around in her pocket in case she needed to make a phone call. Even when the price went up to a quarter, she still carried it around. After she died, my aunt who shared the house with her, said she started finding dimes every so often. In places you wouldn't necessarily expect. This went on for months. Anyway. After Dad died we started finding dimes around the house. no other small change, just dimes. It happened quite a bit in the first few days and over the first month. Mom said it was as if her mother were letting us know she was taking care of Dad. I even started finding dimes occaisionally in odd places or unexpectedly, like one morning getting on a bus, on the floor by the fare box was a dime. Ok, logically you know why, but why a dime? why not a nickel or a quarter? I don't usually put pocket change on the bedside table. On my dresser, yes. So this morning... two dimes, one more than i knew was there.
