So I just got back from the Rufus Wainwright concert held at the Botanical Gardens. It was amazing! He was amazing! The weather was perfect, we had our blankets and bottles of wine and we were good to go.
Let me actually step back a few weeks. Jamie and Kyle (my gay lover) went to see Snow Patrol in concert a few weeks ago. After the concert they grabbed me and we went down to the Earl and saw Martha Wainwright (Rufus's sister). She rocked out! She was awesome. I probably would go see her again. Not a big turn out but she still played like she was in front of millions.
Then there was Margaret...who I swear we have the same mother. She brought up a lot of political views and valid points. Seriously though...I never really thought of John Kerry being an Ent. But I guess the 2nd runner up for comedic perfomance goes to Darrell (Mike's younger brother who is 1/2 of a twin). We picked him up at 2 AM from his head banger EYE-HATE-GOD concert. He must have told us the same story 2 or 3 times. Said in a slurred tongue "The best vodka they had was Absolute Madrin and her name was Tina!" I wished I knew how to work Mike's camera phone...I totally would've video'd him and sent it to dear old mom and dad and possibly grandma.
And then there was Clemson. I had a really bad dream about Brad one night. So the next morning I woke up with a pain in my heart. I can't remember what I dreamed about but I was worried. So I high tailed it 2 hours east on 85 until I got to Hardin Hall. He was okay. Just alarmed and surprised that I was there to go to lunch with him. I got to see Jenny and we caught up on old times. I met her husband. And turns out that we know some of the same people...well actually just one. This guy Zack that went to school with us. He was his Best Man in their wedding.
Well, it's 12:30 AM and I'm going to crash in my bed and watch Love Song for Bobby Long.
GOODNIGHT!!!

I was also happy that you came up, not just suprised and alarmed.
Damn girl, you packed like 3 weeks into two paragraphs. Glad you had fun at the concert.
