First and foremost, it's started. Posting for LBB is finally here. I'll be unlocking my LBB on Wednesday and I just can't wait to see the reactions of readers.
Now onto other things. Yesterday I spent a lot of time talking to my step aunt about the people I've met through fandom and all of the crazy events that led me to meeting Adam. During this conversation I got teared up several times. The kindness and friendship I've found in this fandom never ceases to amaze me.
This lead to all sorts of crazy dreams about meeting Adam again and being able to thank him again and really get across what I was trying to say last time without it coming out as a jumble of wordvomit. I also had several muddled dreams about finally getting a picture with Tommy. I got to meet him at my first GN show, but my camera flash wouldn't cooperate so I couldn't get a pic with him and at the Raleigh Adam came out to sign after instead of the band. I shoved the tiny woman behind me in front of me so she was at the barricade and Adam would sign for her. I told her I'd met him before the show and was just going to take pics when he came out.
Anyway... I think all this crazy roundabout stuff means that I'm hoping Adam does promo touring while I'm still in Arizona. Since LA is like six hours away I know I can get there if I can figure out a way to get tickets. I'm still a lil unsure how people get tickets when Adam's on shows like The Talk and Ellen.
The past two years have been the best in my life. Honestly it's funny to me how much Adam's music healed a lot of the grief I still carried around after losing my grandma at fifteen. And as corny as it sounds Adam literally gave music back to me. After my relationship with my husband ended I really closed off on music which is so unlike me, but he was in a band and there was so many lingering feelings of hate toward music because of him. Now you have to understand that up until that point music was like breathing to me. I can't sing, can't play an instrument, but if I had my way 99.9% of the time the TV would be off and music would be on. To lose that was like losing a part of my soul, so when Adam came rushing in like a tornado, I felt like I'd woke up from a nightmare.
These past two years have also granted me with amazing new friends. You guys know who you are and I want to thank each and every one of you for coming into my life. Through fandom I've gained so much more confidence in myself and each and every person who's every commented on my fic has had a hand in that.
There's so much more I want to say, but it's 7:30am and my stomach has other ideas of what I should be doing right now.
But as a closing I'm going to be a cheesy Adam fan and say to the fandom, thanks for loving me cause you guys are doing it perfectly.

Date: 2011-12-24 01:53 am (UTC)I see you talk of Phoenix, I was surprized, I am only about 1 1/2 hrs north of Phoenix. I did drive to L.A. with my daughter and granddaughter to see Adams last 2 concerts there, It was great! Adam made me brave, and gave me confidence to drive to L.A. I've never driven or been to Calif. before. Maybe we can car pool for Adams nexts concerts,( I'm saving my vacation days at work for concerts)
