Decide for me, because I am RIGHT down the middle on this one. The Frames are playing in Seattle next month. I would LOVE to see them. Here's the thing - I can totally go. But I'm still wrestling with the decision. So a few pro / cons and then I want you all to weigh in. Because I'm being a decision wuss.
Pro:
-It's The Frames. Hello!
-I completely love Glen Hansard (um...boyfriend #2?)
-It falls on a weekend that Isaac rearranging his schedule isn't terribly painful
-Isaac is fine with me up and going
-I would get to go with lbs, which guarantees a good time...and finally (after 6 years!) meet Susan
-I would totally get to be there. Singing along with this:
-I could stop in at John Fluevog...
-It would be just for me...frivolous
-Seattle in November...(which, to me, is a total PRO)
Con:
-It's completely frivolous
-It would be SUCH a quick trip (we're talking less than 24 hours)
-It seems like a waste of our family vacation money fund
-I hate being away from Isaac and Sammy
-I would have to fly. Twice. In less than 24 hours. Is there enough valium in the world for that?
-I would have to fly and possibly plunge to the ground in a horrible twisted mass of metal fire ball (though, pro, my charred remains would be buried in the NWish...).
-It's Thanksgiving weekend (which isn't terrible, but I feel a bit of guilt over, even though Thanksgiving at our house is a sweats and movies weekend and I wouldn't actually miss THANKSGIVING itself)
-I would feel as though a possible girls weekend with Isaac's sisters next spring is an automatic no-go
I'm sure I'm forgetting something, but for now that's enough. So...
(finally, the frames...seriously. Why am I struggling, again?)

As I was reading your pros and cons, I was thinking in my mind, "Go, go, go." Until I read the last one. But that's just because I don't know if that is something you look forward to and that would enrich your life.
Amanda - I'm not sure, to be honest. There is a whole OTHER pro/con list for that one! I would be ok missing it, for this one, though. I think!
Why not
Go. In a car. With Issac and Sammy?
Well, now. That would solve everything...
The answer is obvious: GO!
But I might be ever-so-slightly biased on this one.
Maybe a smidge. And I'm leaning toward going. Because it's so out of character for me, if nothing else!
I'm only going because my husband said "You should go" and then got online and bought me plane tickets! haha. I'm a decision wuss, too.
That said, you have to go! Seriously, the Frames are worth it. And meeting Laurzia's worth it, too. She's way cooler than I am. We'll have so much fun!
