(SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY) TXRD roller derby has moved to the Crockett center, over by Chuy's and the new Chinatown complex. I hope they don't double-book with the gun show that's there the third weekend each month - GO CHOLA! Saturday, Drop Trio from Houston are playing in town. I haven't heard them, but they're described as 'space jazz' - I'm hoping along the lines of Emperor Penguin, Stereolab, or Tipsy. Oh, yeah - Horns Win, Horns Win! I'm I the only one who thinks 'the eyes of texas are upon you' is a little creepy? I'm trying to decide between 2-step, yoga, fencing, or the UT Odyssey course on
human infectious diseases for a spring class. I also just saw the the
Capitol City Highlanders Pipe Band are giving free lessons, and there is a Monday drumming group at
Drumz. Still trying to make it to Wednesday night
contra dance, or over to
hole-in-the-wall for Monkey Butlers and the Ridgetop Syncopators.
It's dry here. It hasn't rained in a long time. Last year, it rained every weekend for about 8 weeks straight. It was cloudy today, and I was almost giddy. It's weird getting excited about an overcast, cloudy day. It's been so warm here over winter that the plants are all goofed up. My banana plant by the pool is sending up shoots, and I got a feeling we're not out of it yet. But the next time it rains, I'm going to go running around outside in the puddles.
