Bjork!!!!

Bill just told me that he bought us tickets to the Bjork concert on September 12th.

Let me repeat that. I'm going to see Bjork in concert!!!

I have always wanted to see her in concert. When I heard she was going on tour, I tracked it and found out she was performing in Chicago. I considered going to Chicago to stay with my brother and go to the concert, but it was right before our trip to Iceland and timing and money didn't work out. They just announced last week that she's added on a few more locations on her tour, including.... Atlanta! Even better is that she'll be performing at Fox Theater, one of my favorite venues in Atlanta. Twinkling stars on the ceiling and Bjork. Who could ask for more?

My love for Bjork is more than pure appreciation of her music. Her album Homogenic got me through some really difficult times in my life and the lyrics contain so much meaning for me. Here's a video of her talking about her process of developing her latest album, Volta

When Bill told me, I exclaimed "This is the best year ever!" And it's true. Of my list of 43 things, I've already crossed off 4 of them just this year. It's amazing and I'm not sure what I've done to deserve it but I really do have the best husband in the world (regardless of what I may say when we're arguing.) Now if I can only return the generosity and really make this the best year for him as well.
