Pizza Night Deviation

Our first Friday night without Joey and we are totally off the routine!

It looks like we are starting the 'No Umbrella' series.  Bill and I were caught in the rain on our way to the opening event at a local lit fest - - this time in the city of witches. (I've finally figured out that people DO google these things - best not to name names.)
Despite the rain, we looked good. 
 Cocktail hour just became more fun!  Fellow Nbpt festival planners Alida and Linda were there with their husbands.  Bill played Travel Match Maker to see if the four of them should take a trip to Argentina together.  (where was this game when were planning our trip with Phyllis?)  Shortly into the game, Linda and Norm's marriage dissolved.

Next up - the actual literary event.  A bad sound system made it impossible to hear.  It was 45 minutes of listening to Charlie Brown's teacher.  Pure misery.  And because we seated ourselves on the staircase in the center of the room we couldn't just sneak out without making a scene.  Once home, Bill went running for the solace of scotch and a cigar while I found comfort in 2 episodes of Friday Night Lights.  This is what we get for trying to mix things up.
