So! No Doubt? Honestly, the best show I've seen in a really really REALLY long time. They looked like they were having so much fun, the sound was fantastic, the seats were good (a little nosebleedy, but great view). They were the only band EVER to say "You're the best crowd EVER!" and sound like they actually meant it.
Gwen looked fantastic. I want to be her. Can I be her? Who do I have to kill?
(I settled for buying a hoodie and not killing anybody).
We had a great dinner. I got to sleep all fucking night! And hog the bed! And then we had an awesome breakfast at Stella's followed by some SHOPPING. In a mall much less lame than the ones we have here. The kind of mall where (as FoN put it) there's a swirling vortex that sucks you in and suddenly you've lost 6 hours and $500.
Sigh.
Totally needed that holiday. Except for the tiny detail at the end. The part where, when I got home, my child wanted nothing to do with me. Actually climbed over his father to get away from me.
I was still a little deaf from the concert, but I'm pretty sure I could hear my heart breaking.
Sob.

I could have solved this by just not coming home
this drunken rambling by Keely at 5:18 AM
This post is possibly about: concerts , I'm a headcase , more mom than un
32 people talked back :
He sounds a mite pissed that you left. The little stinker. I'm sorry he made you sad. The first time they break your heart is always the worst.
LOVE NO DOUBT! Saw em In Detroit! FANTASTIC! Gwen is SO HOT!
Next time leave for three or more days. Then he'll miss you.
Babies are so damn fickle.
I'm glad you had a good time. X will come around and realize he missed you soon enough. And then it'll be time for another vacation!
I kinda felt that one coming. I guess I should have warned you. I had to travel when Baby Girl was about that age and when I first came home she wouldn't have anything to do with me. It was like she was pissed at me for leaving or something. He'll get over it and be all about Momma in a short time. Try not to sweat it.
:( aww, poor momma! at least you had a good time at the concert!!!
Hoo boy. Glad you had a good time, but now you're making me worry about my trip next week. Four days gone. When I come home, will Sprite look at me and ask "And YOU are?"
Awwww! Glad you had such a fantastic time, but yes, that first heartbreak is always the worst...but he was probably miffed that you were gone and was punishing you for it...he'll get over it soon enough and the pendulum will swing in the other direction! ;)
Yeah, the first time they realize they don't "need" mom is the hardest. He'll get over it when he realizes that a boys weekend only really lasts a weekend.
Glad to hear you had fun!
Kids and animals. They miss you, throw fits, and mope around the house while you're gone and ignore you when you get back. What the hell, man?!
Glad you had fun anyway. The baby will get over it in a day or two!
You just need to put a little bacon in your pocket. That's how I get my kids to like me.
Meh, he's probably already forgotten why he's mad at you.
He'll come around after a while. But sounds like the concert and break from the norm was great. Glad you had a fabulous time.
i think we all forgot to warn you about that part of coming home from overnight trips away from your child. it must have just slipped through the cracks. this is where i find presents and candy very helpful. especially at x's age!
Sounds like you had an awesome time! I sure could use some fun like that. As for the little one, he'll get over it in no time. It still hurts though.
awwwww that's is "boy" card! :)
Awesome! I would kill for my child to get away from me. No, just kidding.. awesome about the show. This is they way I felt after Dave Matthews back in April; such a rock-star high from a little getaway. Doesn't take much.
Ick. Now I'm never leaving home without the boy. Sorry you had to suffer through that.
Pfft. Moi, jealous? No, don't be silly *cough cough* bith *cough cough* :-D
Your heart will mend and the boy will get over it.
The weekend getaway - still priceless.
Glad you had a good time. You will both get over your son scampering away from you like he doesn't know you.
Mom's always are shocked when they leave the kid with dad and then come home to find that the kid loves dad! Dad lets kids eat candy for dinner, and never yells at them for anything, and ends up being the fun parent, where as mom has to do all the unfun tasks! I wouldn't let it bother you too much, Dad probably spent half the night hearing, "I want my Mommy"! LOL!
Oh, I know just what you mean. That is the worst when they are mad at your for leaving them. Poor baby! It sounds like you had SO much fun though. How nice!
Yeah, they do that. Don't let it bother you too much. Kids are just smart little buggers that learn young how to work us over. He's normal.
Oh, no! It's like he was playing hard to get! Typical boy behavior! :) They get over that fast, though.
So glad you had fun!
Sorry to hear that... But at least you had a kick ass time and $500 bucks of junk to play with till he remembers how much he loves his momma!
awwww....poor baby - bad mommy!!! but hey, atleast you have something to feel guilty about right?
What a great time you must have had!!! I'm so jealous!! You deserve it though (but not the part at the end)!!
I find that keeping cash on hand keeps the kids coming to me.
Glad that you got away and had a great time! When my HS roomie was little, her mom had to go out of town for a business meeting. When her mom returned, Kristy (my roomie) was calling her blankie "Mommy"! Don't worry, she got over it! ;)
Awww, I hope X is over it by now. Glad you got out and had some fun though, the kid will get over it if he hasn't already. I love Gwen too but it would take A LOT of surgery to get me lookin like her.
You know who I want to be? You. Because I am so jealous you went to the No Doubt concert!! I HATE that I missed it :-( Heck, don't tell anyone, but if it was a toss-up between No Doubt and BlogHer, I probably wouldn't be going to Chicago next week. Shhhh.
I just want gwen's body. That shit is not natural.
That's happened to me before, too. Where the kids are upset because I've gone out of town. It hurts. That's why I always put some candy in my suitcase for bribes.
