Sucks when your elderly mother, who hardly ever uses her iPhone, spends ~$250 on a cellular apple watch so it'll call 911 if she falls and doesn't respond, and then when she gets it she can't use it because she has an iPhone 6s+ and Apple wants to force her to upgrade so they won't allow it to pair.

It was no surprise that #VNVNation would put on an amazing show, but neither of us expected Ronan to hand the kiddo one of the drum sticks at the end of the show. Such a great memento for her first time seeing them!
(Also kudos to the kiddo for grabbing a spot up front while I dealt with merch and coat check; being up at the very front was fun!)
The least pleasant surprise of the evening is how unforgiving the metal plate attached to the front row barrier would be. My feet hurt SO. BAD. I did okay getting to the car, partly because I had to and partly because I hadn’t sat down yet, but I can barely put weight on them now that I’m home.
