Carpe Diem (Seize the Fish!)

This was my day at work. Roughly six o'clock, only been there two hours...:

Viv: I just won two Rodeo tickets in the raffle.

Me: Cool!

Viv: ...for tonight.

Me: Ouch. Gonna go?

Viv: Well, I'd hate to not use 'em, but no one else can go, and we'd have to leave right now. I just don't want to go alone.

Me (picture a kind'a cloud-shaped thought bubble here): Work... Cowboys... Work... Tight, dirty jeans... Work... Leather... Work... Sweat... Work... Sweaty Cowboys in tight, dirty jeans and leather

We were half way to there before I asked who was playing tonight.

Viv: Martina McBride

Me (again, thinking): ....who?

It was a blast! The cowboys didn't let me down at all ^_~ (The cowgirls could kick all out asses, so they were cool too.) And it turns out I knew one of McBride's songs after all! (Independence Day. She also covered Harper Valley PTA and Somewhere Over the Rainbow. I knew those.) Damn that woman's got a hell've a voice. I'm impressed.

Got back to the office (where I left my car) around midnight, so I went in and finished my shift. Gonna look odd on my time sheet this week, having a huge six hour lunch on Wed. ^_~

Now, however, I can feel the blisters trying to rise up from wearing the wrong kind'a shoes, so I'm gonna go catch up on Buffy and give 'em a soak.

(Edit: Humph. Looks like I punched in the wrong number tuesday, no Buffy. :( I'll catch up on Smallville instead.)
