"Birthday Princess”

Rainbow Report, 08/27/2014

My daughter and I were proud to represent Rainbow Direction at the 1D concert in St. Louis, MO. There's a lot that could be said, but I'll start with this:

The response to our outfits and signs ranged from polite curiosity to outright approval. There were some lingering stares, sure, but plenty of smiles! Several people mentioned my shirt specifically, one person commented positively on my bizarre rainbow headgear, and someone else simply said, "You're awesome! Just so you know."

I felt pretty awesome after the show, when that photo was taken. Exhausted and exhilarated at the same time. Something else too. I don't think vindicated is quite the right word? Then again, maybe it is.

Standing in line for concessions earlier, we spotted a girl wearing a t-shirt that said, "F*&% Larry Shippers" and booty shorts with "Might as well" printed across the back. If she had noticed me, I would've asked for a picture together. Probably best she didn't, in reality.

I don't have to wonder too much who had the better concert experience.
