November? Really?
Today we get to show the rest of the world how well democracy works. Maybe by Thanksgiving, the court will decide who won tonight.
On a different note, I had quite an exceptional Halloween weekend.
Saturday night I went to the Metro with Sarah and Rich to see the Drive-by Truckers. That show rocked pretty hard. There was plenty of Jack and loud electric guitars. Quite a contrast to the shows that I normally see, but the truckers stay true to their southern rock roots and throw in some nasty southern jams that made me feel like I was back at Kemosabe's in Boone's Creek, Tennesee.
Mary Beth ended up going with me to Cincinnatti to see the Yonder Boo-grass show on Sunday. Tim O'Brien opened for Yonder, after Mountain Heart. We missed most of Mountain Heart, but the rest of the show was excellent. Yonder did everything from Beatles to Monty Python. It was also excellent to see Drew, and get to spend some time with him, even if it was just for a few hours.
Spending nearly ten hours in the car this time with MB, made for some intresting conversation. I don't think I am the only one who feels the increasing levels of tension and attraction in our relationship. Approaching it, however, seems to be the increasingly difficult part. The conversation may have headed that way a couple times, but never was the topic discussed. I should be able to start a mature conversation about how I feel about someone, but this seems impossible.
I missed a show with Crash Davis on Sunday night. We have another this Wednesday, and I am looking forward to seeing how it feels being back with them. I am really excited to be on that team, but I can't help but feel recently that certain members are less than thrilled with my involvement. At least that is a feeling that I don't get with Charlie Don't Surf. Come check out my show Wednesday night at the Improv Olympic, and watch this story unfold for yourself. This week it is free, also stick around for Tusk and Mammal '79.
