No means no!

At the Crocodile! Live and in person!

An amazing show. The music was awesome. And I haven’t been on the fringes of a mosh pit for a long time. Love! After the show we lingered outside, talking for a little while. Then headed over to the coffee place. Then when we were headed to the car, finally away from the crowds, one of us noticed that Rob Wright was walking along right in front of us. Someone said, great show, thank you! And he acknowleged that. And someone said something else maybe? And he acknowleged that too? And then I said, no, stop! And he turned around! And I gave him a hug and said, “I saw you twenty years ago and it was memorable, and tonight was even better.” And he acknowleged that too. I can’t believe I managed to do that without bursting into tears.

While I write this I’m watching the episode of ST:TNG wherein Geordi falls in love with the holodeck version of Leah Brahms. I keep seeing these shots of this treacherous asteroid field. But a few nights ago I was at the theater showing of “The Best of Both Worlds” (Aaa! What a night!) and during the extras, we found out that some of the early asteroid fields were filmed using granola. Ha! Granola! And sure enough, the asteroids totally look like granola!

In other words, it’s been a good week.
