Feeling Very Sorry For Myself

September 14, 2008 12:35pm CST
Lita and her band, "The Luchagors", are playing at a local bar tonight, and I'm too sick to go! She's been a heroine of mine for about ten years now. I thought the way she went travelling and got a tattoo on her trip and the fact that she took herself alone to Mexico to learn to wrestle with the guys was so inspiring. She's such a strong, independent woman. I really admire that and could only hope to be as courageous in following my dreams as she has been. I've been looking forward to this gig, although apprehensively as it's a club that's not wheelchair accessible and I'd have a lot of trouble getting down the stairs etc. I have either food poisoning or a stomach bug. I'm so sick. I can't go anywhere. I'm really disappointed. I hope so much that I get the chance to see her again. I was hoping she could sign her book for me.

Gosh, I'm really sorry to hear that! I myself have been in your situation before; there was once this concert by one of my favorite bands and it so happened something more important cropped up during the day of the concert and I had to forgo the concert and give my tickets away. Perhaps you could get any of your family members or friends to go over to Lita's gig and record the gig on digital camcorder so that you could watch the gig under "replay" mode....hope that's allowed and not illegal.... By the way, hope you get well soon and don't stay sick for too long ya!

It's not the first time I've missed out on a gig that was important to me because I was sick. I missed Aerosmith playing in Hyde Park and Tool playing locally. I was so devastated. I always seem to get sick when there's a concert I'm dying to go to! I asked a friend, but he can't go either because he's off to Majorca this evening. He's really cut up about missing it too. Thanks for the good wishes!
