Little Feat, The Braves, & Bangkok

Man, Little Feat was awesome! I was lucky enough to get to go to the Memphis International Music Festival over the weekend. Actually all A and I wanted to see was Little Feat - and that we did. Go ahead and check another thing off life's 'to-do' list: see Little Feat play Dixie Chicken on the banks of the Mississippi - done. Not a bad gig, not at all. The ground was full of complete mud, the weather was absolutely gorgeous, I got great pictures, and I drank too much.

We kicked off the day at the Flying Saucer and had a blast. I had several drafts you can't find in many places, so you know I was enjoying that. Then we headed down to the festival on the riverfront, which was a blast. After that we continued the onslaught of our brain cells by returning to the 'saucy.' And guess what, we kept on by hitting Beale Street. Needless to say I spent most of Sunday on the couch. How many freakin' times do I have to tell myself "Oh hell I'm never doing this again?" Sound familiar?

Speaking of Sunday on the couch, I watched the Braves take two of three from the Cards. Hey, I love the Braves, don't get me wrong, but I was surprised to see them do so well against such a damn good team as St. Louis. Man, they're good. I predict they'll win the NL Central hands down. Again, you heard it here first, well, maybe not first, but damnit you did hear it here.

Now Sunday night was great too. One of my (and A's) favorite things to do is to find new places to eat. There's this new Thai spot named Bangkok Alley (although the opportune time for one, there are no sexual innuendos intended) that we decided to try. Holy Taiwan Batman, that place was good. I have recently, in the last two years or so, developed a taste for Thai. I was never a big fan of peanuts in pasta before, but for some reason I very much enjoy the spicy dishes now.

I'm still loving the Mac.

And that about does it for the weekend - and Monday (today) has been just a normal work day filled with fires I had to put out. OH, I almost forgot, I set up my fantasy baseball team finally - I'm such a kid.
