Take Off Your Shoes

Well, I was off yesterday, being Veterans Day. But really I was off Wednesday night and spent Thursday recuperating. I didn't get home until 4 in the morning. It all started Wednesday after work when my ex-coworkers wanted to go to happy hour. So I obliged. It's weird. In the past 3 days I feel like I've been on "this is your life". I've met co-workers from 3 different jobs I've had (lunches, happy hours) I've talked to my step-brother, sister, grandmother,nieces and nephews. Am I about to die? Anyway I went to happy hour and then went to a cool movie theater called the Granada. It's basically a dinner and movie place at once. You sit down at a table and order your food while the movie is showing. It was a DVD release party of the infamous Crossroads Guitar Festival I went to back in June. They gave away really cool prizes like an autographed guitar signed by Eric Johnson and pictures signed by Steve Vai. I didn't win any though. I was there with a friend, Travis, who went to the festival with us. He then persuaded me to go to Deep Ellum and watch the acoustic chaos. Wednesday night is famous for having all of the bands in Dallas hang out at this one club. It is good for networking a band and getting new shows. About Travis, we used to work at AT&T 6 years ago. Since we both played guitar and were in bands we would party together all the time back then. Yes I had some wild nights where I would wake up in Austin and Denton and wonder "How did I get here?" He had this cool Chinese girlfriend and one time I awoke to find myself surrounded by people who spoke only Chinese. I thought I ended up in China. I awoke on the couch, they were all eating lunch on the floor and their shoes were in the corner. I think during the night someone took my shoes off and put them in the corner as well. I was like "waaa?" Then Travis pops out of the bedroom and I know what happened. Good times, good times.
