It is hard to believe, but we are slowly starting to have pieces of our old life back. On Monday, Memorial Day, we went to a concert: Elvis Costello and the Police. It felt very good to be, once again, in a concert crowd. It almost felt like the old days…except from the fact that we used to tailgate and drink beer beforehand, and now Tizi was …(Warning: TMI)….expressing breastmilk in the parking lot. But the show was really good: we have both been waiting for this for a long time, and it was the first time for both of us to see the Police perform live. Tizi was even able to get a nice Samuel Adams: it cost $13, but it was well worth it!

Both Elvis Costello and the Police put up a great show, – and a fun duet– if a little short…and you know you are watching middle-aged musicians (to be generous) when the show starts early, it finishes before midnight and you are the younger people in the crowd…But it was all great: the seats were very good, and thanks to one of Tizi’s colleagues, we drove to the arena, notorious for traffic jams, on a shortcut and we were in an out with no trouble. We watched other unlucky concert-goers being stuked in bumper to bumper traffic well into the Police set.

We had a great time but most of all it was wonderful to realize that with some adjustements (and a little extra cash) we could still do some of the things we enjoyed BB (before baby).
