Tales From My Trip

I'm in Milwaukee at a really nice hotel, sitting in a very comfy bed. A girl could get used to this. We had a lot of fun tonight! We spent the night talking to James and his wife, Heidi at the art walk. We both found a few things we had to have. It was great to talk to James again, I miss all of the fun we used to have. Oh, to be sixteen again! I still can't believe it has been so long. I feel like it was yesterday we were playing Dukes of Hazard in the St. Jude parking lot and lighting our farts in the back seat of the car - what? If you have never tried it I would highly recommend the experience, loads of fun, if your sixteen, that is!! Kelsie and I reluctantly left the art fair to go to a wine bar that Jessica told us about called Vino 100. Very cool. It was a beautiful night and we sat outside and drank wine and people watched, which is always a fun experience. At about eleven thirty, we realized we hadn't had any dinner, oops! So we went in search of the ultimate pizza. We went to one place which had much ambiance, or in lay man's term's lots of lots of guy's a girl could really get into watching, but they were closing. We ended up at a restaurant near our hotel with less ambiance, but freakin' good pizza! Which was OK, cause we were really hungry and in this case, hunger trumped ambiance. All in all a very good night away from the old grind, Maybe I can take some of my experience home and spread the inspiration and good feelings around.

Just to gain perspective, Max did call my cell phone about five times trying to get a hold of me. He and Gus had an argument about something trivial and he felt he had to tell me every detail of the encounter, but that was okay, because after he told me about the entire situation, I didn't hear from him again the whole night. Proof again that sometimes people just need someone to listen to them. It's amazing what a little listening can do for a situation. Sometimes it can take something with the potential to explode and completely destroy everything in it's path and tame it to a mere bump in the road of life. Too bad more people don't take the time to listen a little more often and ignore a little less often. I'm betting it would make all the difference in the world.
