Go Tigers

We're in Auburn, Alabama, right near the university.

It actually reminds me a lot of UVA and for a while it made me miss being in college.

Until the couple sitting next to me in the coffee shop started breaking up. I wish I could've heard a lot more, but the climax of the fight seemed to be

"I think you think less of me now."
"Well, I don't think I think less of you now."

The girl was wearing sunglasses the whole time indoors, because of the sun coming into the place. Hilarious. After thinking about it, that kinda makes me miss college even more. Even though I've never been involved in a romantic fight that approaches that one in terms of absurdity (cough cough).

We're playing tonight at The Strutting Duck. Part of me is scared to get there, because it's supposedly a huge redneck bar and I've already been thinking all day about how I've left my job to play music in places with names like "The Strutting Duck." But apparently, "The Duck" is fun. Fingers firmly crossed.

We spent the last couple of days in a cabin in Fort Payne, AL, rehearsing and trying to catch up on some sleep. Kristy cooked for us, which was pleasant and unexpected, and her boyfriend and I took a long hike which included a wander through some sort of old butchering facility. The cabin also had 20+ fishing knick knacks - including one in the bathroom which said "If There Ain't Fishing In Heaven, Then I Ain't Goin'!!" Which was particularly humorous considering the owners are very religious. I dared Dylan to cross out "Fishing" and write "Doing It."
