Boy, if that's not songwriting from the soul.
Anyway, yes I am a little bummed out that I have to leave Citron WorkSpaces where I love the work that I'm doing, getting my very own design projects that are going great. The people are phenomenal there. So encouraging and so willing to teach me. It's fantastic. But alas, the time has come for me to buck up and put in 5 months of work so that I can earn that 80,000 dollar piece of paper that says Either I now have the ability to do something with my life, or that I just acquired 80,000 dollars worth of debt that will take me two year's salary even to just make that much, let alone paying the debt off. Life's funny huh?
I probably sound cranky right now, but I'm a wee bit sleepy. My best friend Ruth and her Sister Liz and I went to this great place last night called Sing Sing. It's a dueling piano bar in Denver. It's fun, they'll play any song you request, so obviously audience participation is a huge chunk of the show, and the performers are first of all amazing and secondly hilarious. Good combination. As with any downtown entertainment nightclub venue, the humor gets a little racy as it gets later, but hey, have some of their most excellent cosmos, and you'll laugh at anything. Mark, our nice gay waiter recommended the Cosmo to me, they're his favorite. He was right, it was delicious.
Well, not too much to talk about I suppose. I'm still tired from last night, we got back pretty late, and then I worked a full day today. Sniff. I hate saying goodbye. But, I must, because now I am only one day away from attending the 101st annual National Western Stock Show and Rodeo!!! I for one am thrilled, this is the first year since I've gone to college that I've been able to go, usually classes start too early and make me miss it, but not this year. No, this year I will be a city slicker among true cowboys. It's soooo fun. The rodeo is cuh-razy. Completely entertaining, but I can't comprehend bull riders. But I'll have one more shot tomorrow to try and figure it out.
Top 4 All-time favorite Aspects of The National Western Stock Show and Rodeo:
1) This is dumb, but I've been going to the stockshow since I was a kid, and my favorite was always going and seeing the animals, and especially the ducklings at the Children's Ranchland.
2) The ridiculous attire. You can always tell who is a real cowboy and who is trying too hard. Please Note exhibits A-D
3) The Rodeo, duh! Crazy bullriders. Crazy clowns. wait, I'm not sure which one is worse.
4) The Stock Show, duh! Love that Stock show. Where else can you buy the following animals all under the same roof: Cattle, Bison, Goats, llamas, rabbits, sheep, pigs, and yes folks, even yaks.
It's pretty darn spectacular.
