See now right away you’re thinking it was something, what? Weird? Inappropriate? Ok I know you all know us pretty well so it wasn’t that. But what was it? Does anyone recognize the sign? No not from the 80’s, no not from the deep South (I think it’s stil there), come on…
Ok ok, there’s a replica of this sign hanging in the Helen Hayes Theater. The home of….yep, Rock of Ages. And Terri and I were there yesterday having a damn good time. No Jack but an audience full of teens and late forty somethings (and ok maybe a few 50s over 55s) rockin out to the tunes of the 80s with a way fun cast.
This is what we do now. We experience all the celebrations. We don’t need stuff, we don’t need gifts, we need each other. As it turns out, it was also National Sister’s Day (first Sunday in August, thank you Hallmark) which we only found out today.
Come on this was a way cool (I know they don’t say that anymore) way to spend a Sunday afternoon in the blazing hot summer, right? Terri swears they shut the air conditioning down at intermission, whew. Then we were off to PF Chang’s for our usual at what turns out to be our table in the bar. Top it off with a wicked thunder storm and it was just about perfect.
We highly suggest you see the show. We also highly suggest you start giving the ones you love experiences rather than stuff, we’ll be talkin about this until we’re hangin on the porch in our rocking chairs. Get it? I wanta ROCK…
