I Will Always Love You

I thought Ali was going to have a heart attack. It was 730pm on the dot and the lights had dimmed. Then the band came out. And then...then you heard her voice.

DOLLY PARTON!


Ali is arguably the biggest Dolly Parton fan there is. Of course, the drag queen dressed as Backwoods Barbie may give her a run for her money, but I know Ali, so therefore she wins. And she was ecstatic for the show, which was beyond cute and ended up making me even more excited (as if that was possible). Ali astounded me with her knowledge, though. An example:

Dolly: Someone asked how I met my husband...
Ali: In a laundromat
Dolly:...I met him in a laundromat!
Scarlet: Wow.

And Dolly puts on an amazing show. She started right on time, with no opener*, played for an hour, took a short break and then played until 930pm! And she played a wide variety of songs, both old and new. I especially enjoyed Jolene (duh), I Will Always Love You, and the acapella one.

She's a little pipsqueak, too. She was hilarious and wore the sparkliest outfits I have ever seen. It has inspired me to rhinestone everything I own.

So overall, the concert was hella good. Despite the fact that I got caught twice trying to bring a camera in. I even tried to lie to the first guy and say it wasn't a camera and said I promised not to use it once he gave me a "Don't bullshit me" look.


Concert Grade: A+!


Next up...DOLLYWOOD!

Who Rocks The Party?

I saw this on another site. Basically you strike through those things not true about you. I would give you the link, but I already closed the box-suck it!

FEBRUARY:
Abstract thoughts. Loves reality and abstract. Intelligent and clever. Changing personality. Attractive. Sexy. Temperamental. Quiet, shy and humble. Honest and loyal. Determined to reach goals. Loves freedom. Rebellious when restricted. Loves aggressiveness. Too sensitive and easily hurt. Gets angry really easily but does not show it. Dislike unnecessary things. Loves making friends but rarely shows it. Daring and stubborn. Ambitious. Realizing dreams and hopes. Sharp. Loves entertainment and leisure. Romantic on the inside not outside. Superstitious and ludicrous. Spendthrift. Tries to learn to show emotions.

I dunno...what do you think?
