It's Getting Better All The Time

Today was good.
In fact, it was damn near grand.
It was the kind of day that was exciting, even though nothing happened. We were all a little jealous of Brendan and Nathan, because they saw Mike Dirnt [of Green Day] walking down Park Street yesterday after school. We then became mad at them, because they didn't say anything to him. That was exciting.
Kelly is now the interim President of Drama Club. Donny has stepped down, partially because he's not in the drama class anymore, and partially because his schedule's been hectic. When we hold elections next week, everyone will vote for Kelly to be next year's president as well, and I'll run for Vice President, because I'll have seniority next year (technically it's Juniority, but that just sounds stupid) and because I love drama (the acting kind, not the school kind).
We worked on Alky in Drama class, and all [three of] the freshman and some of the stupid sophomores are working themselves into a shit because they think they'll be so cool if they're actually drinking on stage.

Summer school aside, I'm pretty psyched for summer vacation. The day after we get out of school, I'm leaving for Cleveland for a week. I'm seeing Fastball (remember them?) at the Alameda County fair July 1st, Elvis Costello [for the first time] and The Police [for the 2nd time] at Concord (excuse me, Sleep Train) Pavillion on July 16, and John Mayer at Shoreline Ampitheater on July 26.
I'm having a bit of trouble psyching myself out for The Police concert, mostly because I've seen them already on this tour and I know what to expect (the set list, the lights, etc.). I am, however, unbelievably pumped to see Elvis Costello. Like, supremely pumped. He's mastered every genre of music that exists (because rap is not music). He's done classical, rock, disco, techno, pop, country, baroque-pop, funk, everything. He's a musical encyclopedia.
I'm also supremely juiced for John Mayer, partially because I'm taking three of my best friends with me. Chris is for-reals a John Mayer fanatic, Gina's never been to a concert and loves JM, and Emily also loves John Mayer (she almost went to see him with me at the Bridge School Benefit concert in October, but had to stay home), so this is to make up for that, and because she's awesome.
I'm so psyched, I'm already having dreams at night about the concert, just like when I psyched myself out for Disneyland and had two months worth of Disneyland dreams leading up to the actual trip.

But seriously, folks, Mike Dirnt! Holy crap. I probably would've shit myself. Actually, probably not, but I would've at least asked him for an autograph and a picture with him.
Come to think of it, I may have seem him on Park St. on a different occasion. Apparently he's a regular at the Peet's, so chances are I saw him, thought he looked familiar, and carried on with my life.

Oh, well.
