Jimmy Was In Town
What a day - I left work early because a group of us rented a limo to take us to the Buffett show. I could get used to those banker hours. Craig set it up and, once we were in the limo, had control of the tunes and, apparently the A/C. We were sweltering.
We got to Macayo's for the pre-concert and I joined some of the gang at a table...for about 10 minutes then the Butterfly had to be free. I saw friends from Tucson, Galveston Bay and LA and somehow ended up spending most of my time near the beer station. Surprise, surprise.
Greg was there to show me his "I Voted Red" (or something like that) bracelet. He was all proud of it and knew I wouldn't really be impressed. I wear bracelets that support cancer research, bone marrow matching and solders KIA in Iraq. He wears one that supports...I don't know what it supports but in a state where you can't throw a rock without hitting a Republican, I'm not sure why he needs to advertise his status.
Macayo's got really crowded so we headed over to Cricket. Some of us got into the VIP tent for free beers (as if we needed more) then it was off to the show. It was a good one, too. I had an aisle seat which worked well for me as I spent a lot of time jumping around to other rows. If not for the seat Nazis who busted us for standing 3 inches into the aisle, it would have been perfect.
It was great being able to avoid the parking lot holdup and have someone drive us home. Or, in my case nearly home.
