So Sorry

As I  Drove into town last night to see Starship" I was exhausted.
I almost gave my money for the ticket and drove back home.
Why? I was exhausted.
As we began our evening, I WAS going to take my car for obvious reasons. (exhaustion)
I was talked into going with the ladies. I thought "OK I can save gas and then get back to my business I was going to take care of in town. I will have some ladies to visit with and that was nice to do, we enjoyed our talks and sharing"
How did I know it was going to last until 10 PM?
We arrived early (really early) Like 6 and this show did not start until 730.
Yeah really Early.
We had very few in line in front of us. As the hour drug on, the ones ahead and right behind us begin dragging their families in with them. The once single file line was now at least 4 or 5 wide.
That ticked me off. Not that I cared where I sat, but the NERVE of some people.
Then the one door opened, I was suddenly pushed. Really I was pushed. All I could really do was say, "Hey do NOT push me." I do not even know who it was, I was moving along with the crowd. I lost Gwena and Margaret. As I get into a semi clear aisle I hear Margret call  my name. She is to my right and about 10 feet behind. Gwena is in front of her a few feet. I sit down, They decide to move across the aisle. Again I sit down. Gwena gets up and moves forward, (she wants to be closer so she can see better). I get that.
However I know the acoustics in this place is HORRIBLE. Margaret and I feel the higher elevation would be better. But we want to all be together,
Gwena finds us a seat abut 10 rows from the stage. OK I sit down again.
Got it? that makes three places we (they) choose,
I am dressed to the nines, My fringe skirt, my dress boots, My dressy top. I am just wanting an evening to relax.
I have seen Starship preform before but this year was not the best, Not at All.
Sorry, that is my opinion however the exhaustion may have contributed.
As the show begins it is OK, Emily danced her heart out. I enjoyed watching her.
They did as good as High schools can do, They are NOT pros.
As  intermission approached we were warned. At second half, the doors will be locked so you can not leave as the first two themes are light shows.
UH OH. I feel the walls close in. I do not want to think.
I am totally uncomfortable.
They played a Balloon band. That is what I said, "Balloons"
Then they played Percussion on Gallon buckets, Yep "Buckets"
My nerves were on total edge.
The DJ could not be understood as one was high pitched and silly and yelling into his mic.
The other was OK, so  I know it could be better.
The kids did an honor to their teacher who is retiring. You did not get one thing they did. Only students could understand the significance of what they were giving him, Leis, Box heads, Rods, I am not sure what all was involved but it meant nothing for entertainment except to the teacher and students.
Maybe?? It was entertainment to them, Me, I was now not in good spirits at all. Oh I did applaud and some were GREAT. One did a James Brown Number, "Papas got a brand new Bag"
One did, "I need a Hero"
One did, Gangham style. Now that was good, No it was Great. I loved that part.
Over!!!! finally over.
We begin to leave. G and M want to give Em flowers. Of course I would do that too.
I tell them to NOT wait on me, I will meet them at the car, the aisles are full and I am scarcely moving an inch at a time.
One lady takes her small sons hand and say, "Here Sweetie, lets take the back doors"
Ye Haw A reprieve. I follow her. I stand at a window inside, all by myself until I see them come out. Maybe 20 minutes later.
I hear them talking as I come down the stairs, "Sue said she would meet us at the car,  but I  do not see her"
I round the corner and say, "Well I waited inside until  I Saw you, It is too cold to wait outside"
Gwena says,"I bet you wish you Had brought your car."
"Oh Yes I do" I have no problem saying. "I am so tired"
We take Margaret home first, then we go back to Gwena's. I suddenly decide I should. go in with her to check out the house. (You can see she is still uncomfortable since the break in) I do not blame her.
I drive home, I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOO Tired and Ticked and shut in I must release some frustration.
I  begin eating. I eat a Yeast roll and a half, Two pieces of Styrofoam, (Your dad calls them Pop Tarts) and a carton of yogurt with Flax. Suddenly I begin falling down,
Or almost falling  down, David said, It really began when I first came in.
I  go to the kitchen, I am holding on to cabinets and being very careful. He sees the stress and begins following me around. My knees buckle several times, I have NEVER had that happen.
NO I HAD NOT taken a thing for sleep.
David helped me to bed and I did need help. I was staggering into walls, buckling legs and the works.
I wonder if someone spiked my water bottle.
So today I wonder, "What the heck was wrong with me?"
Can Exhaustion really do that to a body? I guess so,as I woke up fine this morning. Although I did stay in bed until Noon.
I am still really tired but I am SOOOOOO much better, No falling down yet.
