Hot Texas highway

Oh man, the weekends. I spent so long working right through 'em, I forgot what life is about.

Went to a cabaret show last night and hooked up with some old friends who left Houston 15 years ago. They’re in town for the show. It was a great reunion, and a fall-down-crying beautiful woman bought my ticket. So I owe her. Yes.

I’ve got things - lots of things - that I must attend to. Soon. But they’ll have to wait just a day.

I’m fixing to roll out to Austin. A couple or so hours of bug-smashin’ and then it’s la-la-land until late tomorrow.

If you’re reading this ~2:30 (CST), I’ll be rolling by La Grange (They gotta lotta nice girls…), then it’s swing around Smithville and around 3:20 I’ll be hitting the redlight in Bastrop. Staind and Frank Zappa are going with me.

If you’re reading this ~~4:00, greetings from la-la-land.

So, what are y’all doin’ for the weekend?

Have a good time!

I live in la-la-land, apparently.

I’m working through the weekend.

Will you stop in Elgin to buy sausage??

The jalapeno kind?? And then eat it and tell me how good it is because I can’t have it anymore??

I miss Austin. And Taylor (Loue Mueller’s BBQ) And Lockhart (Take your pick, Black’s or either of the other 2.) And even Dripping Springs. (Salt Lick)

I’m gonna go get me a sammich. Don’t talk about Austin, because it makes me want BBQ.

Geez, 'Nerd, sorry you had to work, but as noted, I’ve been there.

And DD, no, I didn’t get to Elgin, but I had breakfast at Cisco’s. Almost as good. Salt Lick is good - we had a BatDope gathering there last summer.

While it was a great party last night, which I’ll not go on about, part of the fun was just blasting down a hot Texas highway in the company of my fellow RICO speeders and my portable friends (the 13th Floor Elevators, Creed - a new fave - and Van Halen also came along).

So, ehh, maybe I am given to shallow pursuits.

Nobody else had any fun this weekend?

13th Floor Elevators??

You ROCK, Dude!!

My boy came down from Austin to see me, but he left on Friday and I miss him already. :frowning:

DD, dear, you have to make our next gathering.

Frying in Dallas!

We stayed inside, except for the pony rides at a birthday party.

Damn, it’s hot. Ozone alert. Gasp.
