In a wicker basket tied to a balloon

I never imagined I would be buying tickets to see Conor Oberst in Brooklyn, NY. If you told me 6 months ago that this would be happening, I would've never believed it. Tickets just went live and I already have mine. That announcement was so unexpected. I made sure to plan around that time in case I was able to make it Governors Ball but seeing how I'm only gonna be in NY for four days, I knew time would be measurable. I'm so happy this worked out. I never saw any of it coming. Julia says the venue is super close to her apartment. Let the countdown begin. Last night I had another unexpected moment. David Greco who's best friends with Ben Wysocki and whom I've been mutually friends with for so many years, unexpectedly got a hold of me and we were able to meet up and have a couple beers together. It was my first time meeting him and it felt like I was catching up with an old friend. It's crazy how easy he made it for me and how comfortable and open I felt once we started to converse. Sometimes even to the point where I'd forget who I was sitting in front of hah. There was this one particular moment when Churchill's song "Changes" came on through the speakers and at first I thought it was just in my head and I had to get some reassurance from Greco. I couldn't stop laughing. "Denver" was definitely making itself known. Before you know it, we were having a mini "listening" party to his new tracks and upcoming album The End Times. Short but sweet time. I'll definitely be seeing him soon when I visit LA in the summer. I have a list of places he recommended and can't wait to check out. Still can't shake off this feeling. It's so strange how unexpected things can happen. I've just been so busy planning moments instead of living them day by day so it's different and it's a whole 'nother ballgame...
