How I did it
It made me
very excited! 
How I did it: I'm a fan of The Daily Show (TDS) on Facebook and I happened to be on one afternoon when they posted they had tickets available for shows in September. I jumped right on the opportunity and requested 4 (which is the max you can get at a time.) As time passed and the dated neared, I began to make arrangements for getting to and from NYC and accommodation whilst there (we decided to stay the night before so we could do some explor… Read how I did it…
It made me
exhilarated! 
How I did it: I made the journey alone (for the most part). So I had rely on (and deal with) myself a lot. I went with my gut, but used my head and heart too. Sheer will and determination, as well as a sense of humor, came in handy pretty often. It was tough sometimes. And I wanted to give in and come home more than once. But I'm so thankful I made it all the way to the Pacific--even if I only visited the San Diego area. It was still enough to get… Read how I did it…

How I did it: I knew some of the things I wanted/needed to buy. I went to a local REI store and window-shopped, essentially. I took notes of the items they had, brands, prices, etc. I compared that to cheaper stores (Target, Walmart, Sports Authority), and online shops. I ended up picking and choosing between them all.

Things between the HIM and I are pretty much dead in the water. That’s not to say that I don’t still think about him on a daily basis, or want text or call or something. But I’m proud of the progress I’ve made…
Especially because it’s helping me focus on the real reasons I want to move there. {see this list} Since I KNOW I’m not moving there for him I don’t have to waste energy on building up those dreams, I can put it towards other pathways and aspirations.
I’m sure I’ll talk to him again before I’m out there, or at least see him once I am there. He’s just one of those guys I’m drawn to, I suppose. Something about his energy, wanting to fill in his gaps with my own.
But I don’t want to totally forget him. He’s there to remind me that LOVE IS STILL OUT THERE. for me too :)
The taping is on Tuesday September 27th! That’s only 12 days away!! I’ve got our bus tickets to and from NYC booked. All we need to get is a place to stay for the night (we decided to go up on Monday to do a little sight-seeing) and possibly do some planning on where to go/what to see/etc. and we are in there like swimwear!
Can’t freaking wait!!
