Am I the only one not excited about Sarah McLaughlin on the cruise?

Umm...(looks around paranoid)...no.

I couldn't think of a Sarah McLaughlin song off the top of my head yesterday, so I went on to iTunes. Of course I knew about 12-15 of them very well, but I realized they are all slow, ballad-y type songs. I don't do well with slow ballad-y type songs ever, and especially when I've been burning the candle at both ends.

I like her voice a lot and think it's beautiful, but I don't really care one way or the other about going to see her.

OTOH, I've checked out the Mountain Goats, and they sound great! :)

I'm mixed... I adore her voice and I've paid lots of $ to see her live in the past so this is a great bonus. BUT she does tend heavily toward ballad/mellow... and so my other thought was 'oh no, weepy drunks!'

Thus I'm mixed - I like her music but I don't want to ruin the mood....

Yes.

...I kid, I kid.

I'm bloody thrilled but at the same time a little worried that her music just won't fit the atmosphere. We shall see.

Wait, so are you going on the cruise now?!

I never posted about it?

YES, I am on the cruise! I managed to save up enough to book last month and I AM GOING!!!!

Plus, I got a flu shot so no repeat of last year's ever-so-lovely experience where I spent 1/2 the cruise sweating off a fever in the cabin.

Eeeee! That's awesome! XD Followed immediately by, damn, I wish I'd known, we could've booked together. I'd much rather room with you than some stranger from the board.

...who knows, maybe you posted and I missed it. I'm kinda dense sometimes. XD

I think you booked before I did.

I got really lucky, though. I didn't have to go through the roommate search. One of my friends and roommates from last year freed up at the same time I did and we grabbed another friend who'd been on the fence because he didn't have a roommate and we were able to book almost before the check that put me over cleared the bank.
