I just woke the dog-- she's giving me the most confused looks. "What was
that shriek? Wha'd ya wake me up for? Do I get a chew? Scratch my butt
and everything's forgiven."
Now I feel even worse that I didn't get in on the signed-and-numbered
thing. Alas! My only consolation is that when I show up at the next
Philly show (which, I plead with the Booking Agents That Be) will
hopefully NOT be at the overpriced Tin Angel, with my new copy of FfR in
hand, I can get it signed personally. Which will make me (...wait for
it...!) dog-snortin' happy. Are we sensing a canine theme?
I spent yesterday serenading the little mall at Philadelphia
International with a (shh!) bootleg OtR concert. Our stores are all
open-fronted so that the weary travellers trudging from terminal to
terminal need not exert themselves to see all the pretty places to spend
money. ("Of course you don't need $700 Australian Boulder Opal earrings.
But you have eight hours more hurtling through the air locked into a
small metal cylinder with six overworked flight attendants, fifteen
strangers with the flu, thirty-four businesspeople with obnoxiously
beeping Palm Vs, three screaming babies, four fat guys with bad breath,
and the chick in the window seat who has to go to the bathroom every hour
on the hour. You might as well look good while you're suffering.")
Unfortunately, this means that not only the aforementioned weary
travellers, but all my fellow merchants as well, could see me dancing
around my store singing. But they must have liked my musical choice,
since no one pointed out that it isn't exactly the season for "Silent
Night." Mmm. Well, I'll just leave it that the flight attendants were too
polite, the travellers were too jet-lagged, and the runway techs can't
hear anything anymore, anyway.
