Houston's Track Meet

I took time off from mundane studio work to watch Houston run, roll, and run relays with a rubber chicken and fish this morning...

I forgot to deliver a copy of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy to a woman at the church, again! I was in the neighborhood, too... These days, gas is too expensive to not hit as many needed stops in one go. Hmph.

In other news, we're off to a Huey Lewis concert tomorrow. I can't say that I was ever a huge fan of the band, but I hear that the show is good and the tickets were provided by my finacé's cousin. I always say that nothing tastes better than a free meal... I should revise that saying, because last night's meal at Ridgewood Country Club for Eliska's graduation from Leadership Waco
left much to be desired. I think that the chicken died of natural causes. Of course, the meal might have been perfectly fine. It may have been the company that spoiled it, with few exceptions, of course (being Eliska, Elton, Charles, K.Paul, and a few others). I've been to a Leadership Waco graduation before. This one was much less pleasant than the first one that I attended. The class speaker was far less entertaining that the last one. He just seemed to enjoy the sound of his own voice way too much. Since it was the 20th class, it was also a sort of class reunion of all of the other ones. It was remarkable to note how many of the old class members are still in Waco. In that respect, being elected to attend Leadership Waco may amount to little more than a life sentence in Waco. Before I go any farther with my negative review of the evening, I must point out that the highlight of the whole affair, and the only glimmer of light in the room was from my lovely fiancé. I'd almost endure another one of those for her. I just pray that I won't have to for some time...
