Weekends around here will be rocking. Even week nights. We have all kinds of way cool shows happening all month. Not even a good reason for it. Just incredibly lucky good timing for music fans.

Thank God my job does not require me to work outside in the elements. Or worse, whether I work or not being dependent upon the lack of rain. The guys who work construction, home repairs, land surveyors and road crews all need sunny days to get their work done. And their paychecks depend on it.

We have had 16 straight days of rain. I don’t think I could go 16 days without a paycheck.

I’m the first to admit that I have almost no domestic skills. I hate doing laundry. I hate cleaning the bathroom. And I hate doing dishes every night.

My laundry is probably the hardest thing to keep up with. There have been situations where the underwear and socks came out pink. There have been countless single socks that have no mate. And today my sheets came out with a huge tear along the side of the bottom sheet.

So this afternoon I will be shopping for new sheets.

When I heard there was going to be a concert at one of the casinos in Tunica, I decided to drive over and buy my tickets right at the box office. I figured I might have a shot at getting better seats than if I used Ticketmaster.

I got to the casino the night before and figured the box office would open at 9:00 am or maybe 10:00. So I got up around 7:00 am, had a big buffet breakfast, and headed over to the box office. When I got there at a couple minutes past 9:00, there was no one in line and no one around except the guy behind the cage. So I walked up and asked for two tickets. But they were sold out already.WTF?
