Buddy Guy

GF and I went to see Buddy Guy play this weekend! As usual I didn't really want to go, but what a good time! Here is a clip of him on Letterman.

I just recently learned who Buddy Guy is.......what a talent. He put on a good show. The audience was an interesting mix; young, old, white, black, and just about everything in-between. I had fun watching the crowd interact.

We watched his live show at a casino, then spent the night in the swanky hotel. We loved the room - best hotel bathroom ever! I lost all the money I took to gamble, but thankfully GF broke even! So we didn't come home broke.

Today we're laying around the house and resting up! I was planning on being more energetic and getting some things done around the yard. It doesn't look like that is going to happen, though. Ahh, there is always tomorrow.............

Wrestling.......



Isn't he cute? This is Mitts wrestling with a small pillow. The pillow used to look nice on the couch. Now it is usually found on the floor. Oh the box he is in, is also part of our living room "furniture" these days.

In other news.......... I'm still employed! The workplace has been difficult the past month or so. None of us know who will get laid-off next. Rumors continue to flourish - they drive me crazy. It's ridiculous how we behave when changes and uncertainty are close. I'm trying to stay away from all the negative talk; it ain't easy! Some days are more successful than others. I'm not sure what wears me out more - the constant persistant speculating from my co-workers, or my inability to get away from my co-workers and their constant persistant speculating. Ugh.

My gf got an extension on her volunteered lay-off. She is home until June 1! She has been busy enjoying her time. I am also enjoying being well taken care of by my unemployed gf who has lots more time and energy these days.
