Stevie thoughts while driving to work one day...

I usually end up paying for their ticket because they're not willing to fork out the cash for decent seats. And then I usually feel dumb for jumping up/dancing/screaming/etc because the person I'm with is acting like they're in a movie theatre!

But whatever.

Wow. I've thought tons of times that I'd rather go alone (which I do) then take someone who was less than wildly enthusiastic about going. But I get the thing about someone having to drive you.
Since 1992/3 I haven't had one single friend, acquaintance, cat, dog, or imaginary friend that likes FM. Except for that one first guy who worked with me when i started getting into them. He was an old hand, he gave me a bunch of the lowdown. But then I only knew him for a few months.
So, I got pretty used to the solitary FM life. It was fun hanging out in vegas with people I met on here, definitely - it's more ideal.
I do everything by myself anyway, though, so...
But it's pretty cool that one ledgie lives by me. And she goes to everything.
For SYW, my friend drove me to the San Jose show, but he was all unhappy, his girlfriend didn't like FM, really, and the car ride there and back was ever so lonely. We were listening to rap in the car, and of course they didn't want to talk about FM afterwards. Except for bitching about the sound from their seats. (I had front row).
That was way worse then going by myself. It's that "lonely in a room full of people" feeling.
