I’m a nice girl. I know I know some of you don’t think so hell some of you spread it all over the net that I’m a bitch but yeah deep down, I’m nice.
Its hard really to be so in love with someone for so many years. So, so many years. You lose hope. You lose a part of your soul. You long for them you dream of them.
You hold imaginary conversations with them, you gaze… You blur.. its sad. You feel a shell of a person.
You may long to spend time with someone who you feel so strongly about. You make such grand and silly actions to just catch a glimpse. Touch a hand, share a smile…hear a voice.
But I am not spending $300 freakin bucks to get a laminate and a meet and greet with Elvis Costello.
This was not an easy conclusion. Financially I’m OK with it. Its worth it I suppose Id say tickets alone is over $100. so really meh… But its principle. I stood there today with the exclusive email from Artist Arena it taunted me at the gym…”C’mon Hel.. hes waiting for you.. he wants you to be there.. hes stoked..”
hmph to that why he should pay to meet me bla bla bla…
OH OH but wait then I get a forwarded email from the boss.. another nudge… ‘see below’ WOOOOOOOOOOOT I mean no wait.. same email.. ARGH its a sign. I should go.
Lets get this straight for $300.00 here’s what I get
Package includes:
– Premium Reserved Seat Ticket in first 10 rows
– Meet and Greet with Elvis Costello
– Limited Edition Signed Elvis Costello poster
– Commemorative VIP Laminate
– $50 donation to charity *(wtf is this nugget? again for tax reasons??)
I don’t see anything about getting lucky. Nor do I see moonlight stroll hand in hand (woot!), nor do I see that we get to like grab a soda and maybe ride a carousel.
hmmm
a poster
well i have that from when I stalked him at the Beacon Theater.
Meet and Greet? Cattle call with a bunch of Star Trek convention looking dudes and pathetic middle aged women. uh…
Sigh…
So it is with deep regret that I respectfully decline the VIP Premium Package.
Why? It cheapens my love.
on the flip side- Elvis Does Boston!!
Boston, MA….., what a wonderful place to fall in Love
