A John Mayer Concert

LaurenLeave a comment

Hi, guys!

Just dropping in to tell you a few things about last night’s John Mayer concert and how he opened with “Clarity,” played “In Your Atmosphere” (I maybe did a fake, but not-so-fake crying face when he started playing it because it’s one of my very favorites and I’ve never heard it live) AND “Free Fallin'” and did a set with the Trio that included “Vultures.”  Plus “Slow Dancing in a Burning Room,” “Helpless,” “In the Blood” and… wait for it… “Gravity.”  In other words, all the best songs!

I took like 10 horrible videos and probably annoyed the people behind me by standing and dancing the entire time, when everyone else was sitting down (WHY THOUGH?!) and mostly, I want to tell you that I hadn’t seen John in concert since 2014 and as soon as he started playing, I remembered how being at one of his shows makes my heart feel so completely whole ♥

Slow Moments of Summer, Part II

From the hammock, I stare up at the evening sky through the branches of the tree above.

In the soft light of our room, I light my newest candle and climb into bed to read.

I read the title story from a collection of short stories.  First to myself, then later on to Joey.  I think about it all week and decide I love it wholeheartedly.

We eat ice cream while children hula hoop and the “quirky crooner-sounds of yesteryear” play in the background.

After yoga, I walk to my car, up a quiet street with beautiful houses and legitimately hear someone playing the saxophone.

Right before bed, I play Joey a Gregory Alan Isakov song and then he plays me one by Amos Lee.
