I love that Nate & Abby are so ridiculously independent these days. Even when I had them in D.C. with me for conference a couple of years ago, I was able to have them have dinner with me, Maria, & Vortex, then I sent them up to the room and was able to hang in the bar with Maria & Vortex for a few more hours without worrying.
Now, I'm getting ready to go to NYC with Nate, and the one evening I have a commitment, I'm going to be able to leave him in the hotel in midtown while I go down to my gig in the Village.
Which, btw, NYC-istas, I'm reading at the Lady Jane's Salon hosted at Madame X on Monday night, 7PM.
But Aims, I could totally tell when we met that you'd known Jamaican women before. Totally.
Ha! And I am sure I went OUT OF MY MWAY to tell you all about yourself and your nationality. Everyone likes goat and Ting, right? RIGHT???
I totally vote for Introvert Seating at the next F2F. Erin beat me to it.
Everyone likes goat and Ting, right? RIGHT???
My sister would look at you
so
blankly.
I, on the other hand, adore them both. As is right and true.
Well then I would talk to her of hurricanes and Bob Marley.
I bet I make too much of a big deal out of how much I like goat when I meet a Jamaican person.
Now I'm trying to think of how I might behave when meeting all different sorts of people. Please keep me away from Germans or I might start singing Schnitzelbank.
Skipping ahead because I can't not say this right away!
I am stunned. I just got a package. beth sent me an iPod Shuffle loaded with music to help keep me distracted while on long drives so I don't get overwhelmed with the depressive thoughts. Thank you, beth!
Hard to wait till it warms up a bit, it sat out in very cold weather for a while....
Dylan Moran has ruined me for all future meetings with Germans (you must watch to the end): [link]
