Sleep is Good, I think

Every wondered if you could describe the process of sleep intelligently? I never really thought of it, but it is now one of the countless useless and pointless facts in my cluttered up brain.

"Sleep (slep) a period of rest for the body and mind, during which volition and consciousness are in abeyance and bodily functions are partially suspended; also described as a behavioral state, with characteristic immobile posture and diminished but readily reversible sensitivity to external stimuli."

For My Mother...

Yes, I know, she is mad at us for going without her, but I am a good daughter, so I will show her the pictures any way.

The Booth Brothers:

Ronnie

Michael

Scott?

Yes, he is relatively new. The older fellow was their father but had to stop traveling with them a while back due to ill health.

We found they were going to be close by so I bullied various people into 1. Loaning me their car, (Thank you ma'am!) and 2. Driving us up there. (Yay my brother!) The concert was great, the pastor of the Baptist Temple was scary and odd, (Sorry, I just am not interested in seeing a squat, fifty-ish, hairy dude dancing across the stage. Not something that made it onto the list of things to do before I die.), their music has improved even in the last few years since I have renewed my listening, and the hilarity of the strange and unusual people that went with or met us there was unsettling.

I really like this one. Love the way it turned out that you can see both of them in a row.

Then three in a row.Then two in a row again.

High Points of the Evening:

  1. Michael's solo. Can't deny the unique beauty of a tenor solo.
  2. T2 and M.P. head banging to a simi-upbeat southern gospel song.
  3. Ronnie Booth missing his cue and completely cracking up after seeing T2 and his cronies head banging. Then saying, "Yeah, there ya go!" in response.
  4. Ronnie Booth saying "Sure you can get a picture to send to your mom," and "Where's she at?" and "We wish she had been able to come when we were in Yukon," and various other nice things to her through me. (Are you taking notes, Motn?)
  5. Them offering a picture with Tony after I had opted out of one with me.
  6. T2 all manfully going up to shake their hands and get the pic, but saying something like "Good job, I like your music, been listening to it since I was a kid." Ronnie responding with "Since you were a kid? Makes me feel old!" Which caused all of them to bust out laughing, which made for a perfect candid shot.

    Then Michael turned to T2 and said "How old are you anyway?" just as I snapped this one. They were all cracked up.

It was a very, very good night. T2 and I both needed it. We hadn't had a just us time in a while.

(Even though it made my Mommy mad at me for a while. ♥I wuv you anyways!♥)
