Getting onto the U-Bahn this afternoon, I knew it was going to be a great day.

I put my iPod on shuffle and the first some to play was Radiohead’s cover of Ceremony, followed by LCD Soundsystem’s Someone Great. I switched over to the S-Bahn to pick up M. at Kita, and found that my phone was ringing. J. needed my address to send something, and I assumed that it was some tech-y geek thing for all the obvious reasons. Didn’t think much of it, went and got M., and headed back to the lovely apartment.

Upon arriving back, I checked my email and found the following.

And a note from J. saying ‘Row six, center. xoxo’.

So we’re seeing Leonard Cohen again on July 2nd, which couldn’t be any more fantastic, and we have absolutely incredible seats. Our first date back in October was to the Leonard Cohen concert in Berlin, which makes this even more smile worthy.

Jesus, I’m a lucky girl.
