I can't make it up

Well I was in a hurry. Someone kept saying hurry up hurry up.
So I did
Well at least they aren't the same foot.

This is how I arrived at our gig tonight. I am not kidding. It's Ingrid's fault. Her tire was flat and Dan had to pick her up and then me up. He was so sweet to do it, so I rushed.

( first let me explain about Brunswick. It's a great town. There used to be a big naval station there. BNAS. Then you have the townies, then last but not least....the Bowdoin college kids. Bowdoin is a very exclusive college. Cream of the crop, mostly old money, a kind of generational thing.
They are a bit preppy most of these Bowdoin students.)
This was my favorite.......

A group of about 7 young men were crossing the Main Street in their madras shorts, untucked oxford shirts and loafers and docksiders. I'll put an example of those in a bit.
These guys were so cool until one of them walked out of his loafers in the middle of the street and almost took them all down.
It was great.

Again with the people walking up to us while we are singing and trying to talk to us. Like seriously in my dance space. "hey hey You guys know anything by the Roaches? You should sing this one...." Then they hum it. Oh yeah that one. God love them. The best? Standing there smoking in front of us. That's pleasant. Over here people do not smoke very much and never in a restaurant or bar, so being in front of band trying to sing seems to be ok. One guy had a big thick cigar.....SO gross.

Dan and I kind of broke the law tonight. It's ok Kitty it's not bad........ We left Ingrid with the gear as we tried to drive around to get closer to pick stuff up. All the streets in Brunswick I swear are one freaking way. We kept going around not being able to get back. So we looked down the street and looked at each other and I said..... No we can't he said, but we can back down the street.
So glad we didn't do that............... And I am even happier that we did opted not to go through the ATM bank drive through the wrong way.
Other than that it was about 50'degrees or so outside and we were freezing. Ingrid's hair kept getting in her eyes and mouth, hands were frozen ( ok not mine I had fingerless gloves on) but, we persevered! Oh and did I mention that we were under a huge oak tree. That dropped acorns on us all night. I can't make it up.
We saw a young woman with a skirt SO short, we now know she had pancakes for breakfast. I really don't understand that statement but, it made Shelly and I hysterical.
On the way home Dan's gas light went on. He said he would normally not worry but just the fact that he was with us made him not question it. Yup we laughed. We got to stop at a gas station and get crap to eat ( Ingrid and I, Dan was power bar boy) I stood in line with Bugles, string cheese and Swedish fish and I saw the advertisement for some big mega million powerball thing. So I asked the woman for a ticket.
No kidding she (he?) said to me:
Do you want the megabucks for a dollar or a power pick that's three dollars unless you get the one that doubles it for an extra dollar. Or
Do you want a powerball? Those are a dollar but you can get a power pick etc etc etc..........my eyes glazed over. I said forget it I can't wrap my head around it. That person looked at me and said I'm sure you can't. We got to the car and I looked what Ingrid and I bought, the bugles, cheezits, string cheese, Swedish fish, twizzlers and combos.
Ok we were starving. I know that they thought we had been smoking and got the munchies. Mistaken for stoners. My life is complete. And no we didn't eat it all.

So tomorrow, we get up and do it all over again. We are exhausted. I need to sleep.
So good night to my friends in the north and as always g'day to the lands of Oz and NZ.....
