(Less Than) Four Months and Counting!

I meant to post this yesterday when it was actually four months and counting, but I wasn’t feeling well. But hey, now it’s less than four months and counting!
Four months until what, you ask?
Okay, you probably didn’t actually ask.
Four months until I meet New Kids On The Block. My all-time favorite band since 1989. If you’ve kept up with my posts over the last eight years, I got back into the band full-swing after seeing them live for the first time in 2016, and I’ve definitely mentioned them on here lol.
To clarify, I’ve always been a fan, but if you recall, I was ALLLLLLLL about pro-wrestling (which I’m also getting back into, hoo-rah, Cody Rhodes!), so I didn’t really do many concerts or anything.
Anywho, to say I’m excited would be an understatement. I have my outfit picked out for the most part. Our photo group is almost complete (just need to find someone to stand with Jon and someone to stand with Danny). My letter to the guys is almost complete. I don’t really know how I want to end the letter yet, so I’m just waiting for the words to come to me. I’m going to be putting spending money on the side for water and hopefully a tour booklet (I already have one from 2019 and 2022, it’s my tradition).
I’ll get to hug each guy and at least say a sentence to them. It goes by quickly, but I also don’t want to choke, so I think a quick greeting is good for shy little me. Except Donnie Wahlberg. The show is the day before his birthday, so I’ll be wishing him a Happy early Birthday. I’ll be standing next to Jordan (my all-time favorite), so I can let him know he’s been my favorite musician for decades.
I’ve done this before… I’ve met wrestlers, including Shawn Michaels, John Cena, Randy Orton, and Cody Rhodes, by myself, so I can do this… that’s what I’m gonna tell myself. Plus, I’ll have a few friends with me. :)
There are tables around the concessions and merchandise stand at this venue, so I may see if anyone (my friends, not the guys lol) wants to grab a snack and just chill for a while.
A few hours later, it’ll be showtime! I’m in the fifth row, an aisle seat (of course, lol), and I’ll also see DJ Jazzy Jeff and Paula Abdul during the show. It’s going to be a great time.
A day less than four months and counting… but I’m okay with the wait. Counting down is part of the fun. :)
