Rockin it in Austin!

Austin. Is. Weird.

Example? Sure thing.

Currently, there is a woman sitting behind me. Backwards baseball cap. Overalls. Work boots. Biker hoodie. Shaved head...? At least, little to no hair. VERY tan. Spitting tobacco juice into a styrofoam coffee cup.

For those who know me, you'll understand the sound I'm making when I say "bleugh"!

Not to mention the fact that, when you get on the freeway, the entrance is actually a service road paralleling the freeway at the same speed and when you exit the freeway onto said service road, you have the choice of continuing on the service road or getting back onto the freeway using what I like to call the "second chance entrance". Say you got off on the wrong exit. In real life, you would continue on to the next exit, get off, make a u-turn and carry on, right? In Texas, they are kind enough to give you a second chance to get back on the freeway about 100 yards from where you may or may not have accidentally exited. Or, I suppose, if you just felt like taking a slight detour off the freeway and then right back on, it's a handy road.

WHAT?!

Hilarious.

Amid the craziness, Austin seems like a fun-ish little town. Last night, we went to a dueling piano bar downtown. The guys playing were hilarious and ridiculously talented. They sang everything from The Eagles to Kid Rock and Elton John... wicked. After that, we walked around a little bit downtown and had a slice of pizza at a local "New York style" pizzeria, where the slices are as big as your face and taste out of this world delicious.

Tonight, we're going to see Nicole perform as Ulla in "The Producers" at a local community theater. After that, we're off to a costume party where I will be making an appearance as a ladybug!!!! Sweet!

Nicole and JoNathan are going to be Bonnie and Clyde and Josh is undecided... Sheesh.

Tomorrow morning we'll hit the road again on our way to Phoenix for a few days to hang with the family there before continuing on to L.A.!
