"I held myself back from crying because I didn't want my eyeliner to run." I said to Ray as he dropped me home after the Stevie Nicks performance at the Wiltern Theater tonight. Saying that was another way to keep the tears at bay until I had this moment of writing to myself. But as I wipe the tears from my eyes here in the dark, I think that maybe it was also me holding true to Randy. No tears. Celebrate.
I loved that she took a moment to give a time and moment to each song. As a writer, I appreciated this because music will always take me to a specific period of my life. I was moved by her ability to convey her emotions, not just with words, but in the way her face/body transmitted the emotion. My body was sent into a trance-like tingle when she performed, "Dreams." I had to make sure I didn't close my eyes for too long a period of time because I could feel myself losing balance as I would get swept into a song that remains in my "All Time" favorites list.
Eyes heavy, stinging & I'm sure red now. Nose stuffy, haha. Perfect way to fall asleep & wake with puffy eyes.
