October 10th, 2010
It's really the eleventh of October right now. 3:47, the morning of the eleventh technically. Could't tell you why I'm still up. I've had a long day. I've had a long weekend, for that matter. It was good. Friday around 2:30 in the afternoon two of my good friends picked me up from school. KP and Mary Jane were bringing me to a concert, actually, THE concert. They brought me to see The Avett Brothers. Before that week I had settled on the idea of not being able to go. I honestly couldn't afford a concert, let alone a weekend in Raleigh. I'm so grateful for them and Daniel. It's because them, that I was able to go to such an amazing show. They split the cost of my ticket and it was settled that I was going. It took awhile for us to get there but in all honesty I was just happy to be with them again, like this summer. We finally got there and from the moment the brothers came on stage I was enthralled. I may have even struck them as detached. I couldn't stop singing and smiling and dancing to the music. We were all just so at home together and being there. This was our concert. We'd been talking about it since this summer. It actually happened.
I have one more person to thank for that weekend and thats ------, love of my life, my everything, my anchor, and my girlfriend. She is the one who poked and prodded me to go. You see, she was lucky enough to see them in Atlanta not long before the show in Raleigh. She told me that the money and everything was worth that show. She wouldn't say that to me if she didn't mean it.
I can honestly say that I am in love. This girl means the world to me. We've gone through so much. We've had so much put against us. We've come through it all and never stopped loving each other. Every time we weren't "together" it wasn't because we didn't want to be. We've come through so much.

I'm yours and that's it, forever
Your mine and that's it, forever"
