Weekend in Review

I was offered a free ticket to see Pat Green at Cowboys on Friday night. I went with Jan my co-worker and friend from school. We got there around 9:30 and it was packed! To our surprise, we were still able to get right in front of the stage on the right hand side. Pat and his band put on an awesome show and we had a blast. He had hurt his left hand and could not play his guitar. He kept saying that he felt weird being on stage without his guitar and that he didn't know what to do. He made a funny comment saying that he felt like Kenny Chesney on crack, since he was up there running around while singing. The best part was when I was just staring, dancing and singing along when he looked at me for what seemed like a long while and said "Do I look silly to you baby?" I just started cracking up and he laughed too. It was great. I also managed to catch a guitar pick from one of the band members, it took 3 tries but I finally got the one that landed inside my shirt :p







Saturday I woke up late and didn't do much of anything until the evening. Roger and I went to La Margarita to have dinner with his friends. Afterwards, everyone decided to go to Maddogs on the riverwalk. I had never been there but ended up having a good time. I find it amusing to watch other people, but I did gross out by watching these really OLD men checking out the waitresses in the tiny skirts and little tops. I mean I know they are going to look but it's just nasty to see a man that old literally ogling them.Ewww

We left Maddogs at 1:30 and were on I-35 heading home. There was a steady fall of drizzle so the roads were slippery. Roger was driving and I had dozed off when I heard him yell something out. I opened my eyes to see two vehicles in front of us collide into each other then both went spinning. Roger, being the good samaritan says that we should stop incase they don't have a cellphone and me being cautious said we shouldn't because who doesn't have a cellphone nowadays. (Bev, I know you are reading this, and you are the exception) It's not that I didn't want to stop, I just new the cops were going to want to talk to Roger and we had been drinking and I was afraid they might ask him about that too. Normally I wouldn't worry about this so much but we were in his company vehicle and his job depends on him being able to drive and have a good record. Anyway, it turns out that none of the 4 people involved in the accident had a phone....Go figure. I called the police and we were there for a good 40 minutes. Both the officer and the two girls who took the worst of the accident were very grateful that we had stopped. We did our good deed for the day.

Next time it is raining SLOW DOWN people. There is no need to go so fast. While we were at the site of the accident we saw another car loose control and go spinning on I-35 all because they were driving too fast, so watch out.....It could be someone like me behind you and I may not decide to stop.
