And the countdown begins....

Weather forecast: mostly sunny, 76* (thank goodness--because it's a 'rain or shine show'. and rain+me doesn't = :) But I would suck it up for Jason.)
Concert-going buddy confirmed: check
Ticket purchased and printed: check. check.
Days left until concert: THREE!

I am getting SO excited! This week can't go by fast enough. I've even thought about my outfit. (hey, you know that's important. don't judge.)
I've also started (mentally) planning what I'm going to take with me. I've never been to Red Rocks, but have wanted to go since I moved here...oh, 3 years ago. (GEEZ..where has the time gone?!) It completely makes sense that Jason Mraz would be the one to get me there.
Anyway, I'm not looking forward to the infamous trek up to the ampitheater. I have the physical fitness of an 80 year woman--what with my feet and back issues. I hope I make it! (And don't require a stop at the medical tent halfway up!) So I'll wear my tennis shoes, and bring my cute shoes to change into once I'm done hiking (because yes, life is a fashion show. you know it's true). Plus, a little jacket in case it gets chilly up in the mountain after the sun goes down.
Also, because we don't want to spend a fortune on concession stand food will be there early, we plan to take some food/drinks with us. (I just checked the website and found out that fruit and veggies must be sliced. How weird is that? I don't want my bananas and apples turning brown..gross! If they don't want you to try to slice them once you get there, how about just say "no knives" ?! Odd, these Coloradoans...)

Anyway...enough about that. Needless to say, I am excited. I've seen him 4 times already, but I have a feeling this is going to be a good one.
I have to admit, I'm a little nervous about the "Gratitude Cafe" influence. I've heard some weird things... Hopefully the hippy-Zen influence isn't too much to handle.
As long as he gets up there and sings some of my favorite songs, I'll be a very happy girl.


I'm ready to see Jason Mraz!
Well, at least, I'm ready to see the tiny speck that I will assume is Jason Mraz from 48+ rows back.
