An IE boy

Morrissey is playing Ontario tomorrow! He's rarely played the IE and never in my hometown of Ontario. I've seen him in LA, Vegas, Hollywood, Pomona and even Bakersfield, but never Ontario. This is gonna be so special and heart warming. I'm going to be one dancing queen machine. 

You see, as you probably know, Morrissey saved my life in high school. The Smiths showed me there was a place to go with my sadness. My dark wave soul found a home in their music and in Morrissey's lovely storytelling lyrics which were melancholy but also hopeful at times. 

Friday, I will be on the floor in the Toyota arena singing along to every song, his solo stuff included. Morrissey's solo catalogue is underrated for sure. I'm hoping he sings "First of the Gang to Die" along with a host of my other Smiths and Morrissey favorites.

What to wear is the biggest question. Maybe my new combat boots that I've never worn. But they're not broken in...

So I'll probably go with my monkey boots along with a NY Dolls ripped tee (Morrissey's favorite band) and my leopard skirt. And when I see him in LA at the Greek on Saturday, I'll dress up more. I'll go pretty but Friday, I'll go comfortable. I'll be me.

Because, this is Ontario and I'm an Inland Empire girl. And for one night only, Morrissey is an Inland Empire boy... 

Believe

I am all about visualization. As a kid, I used to daydream. All the time. Part bookworm, and part day dream believer, I know that dreams do come true. 

I'm the proof.

Yet, right now, I need to figure out my next dream. Yes, I want to write another book, and that I know I can do. But I have bigger dreams too. Movies, plays, television, media and maybe even a talk show on a larger scale than my one woman video podcast endeavor.

The fact that I've been able to create everything I have with just my own two hands, and some support from good writer friends who have mentored me, is amazing in itself. 

What if I had a production company or a studio behind me? The thing I've realized is that I'm a true creative. A hybrid form person. A writer in all genres. And even a magician in a way because writing is magic. Just find the rabbit in the hat.

So my goal until the new year is to breathe, dream and manifest. Because big things are on the horizon. I just need to trust and believe.
